SAFFRON - SESHU'S DOCUMENTARY WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY & PORTRAITS BLOG
While Pramilla and Dhyan are from New York originally, they drove down to Connecticut from their new home in Boston for an evening engagement session. I am really looking forward to photographing their three-day wedding in October and had the pleasure of < a href="http://seshu.net/blog.cfm?postID=47&Pramilla-Dhyan-Engagement-and-Reception">photographing their engagement ceremony last year. Check out the reception pictures to see the kind of energy these two bring to the party!
I am posting just one image for now (working on a slew of other weddings and engagement sessions), but I will post several of my favorites soon from this engagement session soon.
This one is quiet and I believe presents their shy, introspective side. At any photo session there is always a "warm-up" period where the bride and groom are still getting used to the idea of being photographed. This was shot during that time in Collinsville, Connecticut, a quiet little beautiful town. |

I am always honored when I am asked to photograph a couple's engagement session. It's a time for them to exhale, relax, take a break from all the planning and just enjoy each other's company.
Tanicka and I had been playing phone tag and then we had weather problems. As I was loading my car up with my gear and heading out to the first time I scheduled an engagement session, large, ominous dark clouds thundered above. Lightning and a rain storm followed and we had to postpone our meeting on the University of Connecticut, Storrs campus.
Well, I am really glad I waited. Couple of weeks back, Tanicka, Jerry and I met on that same campus. With Summer here, most of the students on campus were long gone for their break. We walked around a few spots on the campus that meant the most for Tanicka and Jerry, as they both graduated from that university a few years ago.
When people smile with their eyes, it makes making images really easy. Tanicka and Jerry were naturals. Wholly comfortable with each other, they allowed me to work effortlessly. So, Tanicka and Jerry, thank you.
Here are some images from that engagement session. Feel free to post a comment. |

Apoorva and Josh's engagement session took place over a cloudy and somewhat chilly day in New Haven. But just take a look at these images and you'll see their sunny disposition simply made this one of my most memorable photo shoots in recent memory. They were so comfortable and natural in front of my camera that it made my work a real breeze.
To boot (pun intended), Josh had recently fractured his ankle on a hiking trip in Cost Rica but one couldn't have known, right? He was up for anything, even stripping his air cast off to skip up steps and around the block! What a trooper.
I am so looking forward to photographing their wedding at Hope Farm, in Bristol, Rhode Island, in late June.
