Indian Reception | Palm Event Center, Pleasanton, CA

Our beautiful couple married in India and celebrated with a warm reception for family and friends here in the Bay Area. We began with an emotional first look, followed by portraits, bridal party shots, and family photos. Next we captured the venue, decor, and mingling during cocktail hour before the program began with grand entrances and an amazing, choreographed first dance. There was a touching mother–son dance, and because our bride is her parents’ only daughter she shared both a father–daughter dance and a special dance with her mother — a beautiful moment I wish were more common; I’d love to dance with my daughter when she gets married. Dinner and heartfelt speeches led into an energetic night of open dancing, where we used lots of movement and low-shutter techniques to capture the real, joyful moments on the floor. Sit back and enjoy the slideshow.
