MUSLIM WEDDING - MUHAMMAD AND AYESHA


Muhammad and Ayesha wedding took place about a year or two ago or perhaps a little longer. It is one of my stock weddings that I pulled out from amongst the hoards of other Wedding photographs that I have yet to share with you. Ayesha made an absolutely gorgeous bride, in fact the entire Wedding was a gorgeous affair.

Ayesha had both a morning and afternoon Wedding dress, the one more beautiful than the other with designer bead-work and intricacies unimaginable. all hand made. The sequence of events of this wedding was much like any other Muslim wedding. After the Nikkah, (the Muslim marriage ceremony) a breakfast is hosted for the men but often times women also attend. It is at this breakfast that the groom comes to meet his bride or rather his wife for the first time, to place a diamond ring on her finger. Here his wife gets to meet her husband's male relatives among which are maternal and paternal uncles,  the close cousins and even his best friends and work colleagues.  Here she also meets with her male family members who informs her that they are witnesses to their marriage ceremony and that they are now married.


The wedding rings they exchanges were magnificent but her designer shoes were one of a kind. Her and diamond ring  and the fleet of  flashy German designed automobiles were to die for. Ayesha has an unforgettable smile and really made a beautiful bride. As can be seen in the photographs below, she had large retenue and and even larger guest list. Photographs were taken at numerous locations amongst which is Cape Town Company Gardens and Sea Point Pavillion.

WEDDINGS - BRIDES AND GROOMS


Wedding Day Photography is all about capturing that unique and intimate moment between the Wedding couple. The idea is to shoot them unawares, when they are absorbed into another, totally oblivious of the onlookers and their surroundings. The best photographs are those that are not posed for, but as a Wedding Photographer I have to abide by and respect the wishes of the bride, to photographs of what she wants. Normally the brides wants photographs of everything, which becomes cost prohibitive but eventually settles for pics with the family, and the new in-laws in order to stay within their  budget. 

However, photographs of the diamond ring, the designer shoes, the bouquet,  the designer Wedding Dress, the luxury car or limousine, the stage and the hair-do is a must, but this blog is not about painting all brides with the same brush, since each bride is unique and has her own preferences. Wedding Day photography with Photo Jani is all about what the bride wants, considering that our motto is, 


"Every bride needs a woman's touch on her Wedding Day!"


Generally the grooms are normally not too picky and will settle for what his wife wants and will go through the motions of posing for every photograph that she wants him to pose for. Below are photographs of 14 bridal couples, the  first one of the bride only then one of the bride and groom, in most cases. You be the judge as to who deserves to be bride of the year and which bridal couple looks the most suited to one another. Send so feedback with your choices. Thanks.
