Cynthia and I photographed a very beautiful wedding at Hunter Valley Farm this past weekend in Knoxville.  Like so many couples in that past few years.  Vanessa and Michael decided to see each other privately for the first time on their wedding day before the ceremony.  The wedding ceremony took place at the new outdoor estate gardens that had just been completed the day before.  They will all cherish the fact that they were the first couple to be married in that location.

We truly loved photographing this wedding and hope you enjoyed the short wedding day preview!

The last two days photographing Rozina and Fayyaz’s wedding ceremony’s have been incredible, but nothing compares to the wedding day.  The wedding day celebration consist of several tradional indian ceremonal events that go on throughout the day and last way into the night  [Part 1 of 2 ].  Enjoy the preview!

The second day of wedding celebration for Rozina and Fayyaz starts out with the grand entrence of the bride for her Manjha ceremony.  Rozina’s beautiful procession into the building was amazing to witness and photograph.  The bride was blessed by showers of rose petals and gifts from family & friends.  The second half of the evening was the Pithia ceremony, which was started off by the grand procession of Fayyaz (groom) entering the building.  Each ceremony ended with the breaking of a “sapatia” (small clay pot containing lentils, silver, sugar, and turmeric) to symbolize bounty of nature, material wealth, sweetness & harmony, and good health.

We had an incredible time photographing Rozina & Fayyaz’s Manjha & Pithi ceremony’s.  Check back soon for their Nikah & reception posting. [2 of 3]
