Amina & Afzal continued

17 June 2011

The second part of Amina and Afzal's wedding was amazing. I loved it. It was full of colour, tradition, emotion and fun. It was a treat for me to photograph!
I started with Amina's preparations.

Amina was stunning...again. The detail in the dress and jewellery was just beautiful.

The ceremony was a whirlwind of drums and dotting between Amina and Afzal as they were in separate rooms to start with. A big thank you to Dora who helped me with the logistics of being in two places at once.

And then into the speeches.

Next was the traditional stealing of Afzal's shoes, for which he had to pay a pretty high price to get them back! Amina's cousin was chief stealer and negotiator and did a great job.

It was then an emotional goodbye between Amina and her family.

I was lucky to then have some time with Amina and Afzal for some more photographs in the grounds.
