The Thought
How in today's progressive Pakistan, we still see the eastern values being followed - and that there exist households who actually teach their daughters te art of raising a family. Keeping our culture and values as an integral part of each household is important, for the reason that our culture teaches us nothing but love, harmony and peace.
The Shot:
Inspired by Imran Maskeen's wedding work, I decided to take the camera to a friend's sister's wedding and shot into another friend's vari-angle LCD as he was composing a portrait of the two. Shot at f/5.2 at 110mm, I wasn't quite expecting the bokeh -

Mehndi, or the Rasm-e-henna ceremony, typically takes place one or two days prior to the main wedding day. The event is traditionally held separately for the bride and the groom, and henna is symbolically placed on the couple's hands. The groom's friends and family bring along sweets and henna for the bride, and the bride's family does the same for the groom. On the bride's ceremony the groom normally does not participate and similarly, on the groom's event the bride stays at home. Female guests are sometimes offered mehndi at the host's discretion.
The ceremony may also be held simultaneously for both the groom and the bride.
The bride normally wears a green dress or yellows/oranges for mehndi and uses only light, or no, make up. The groom will typically wear a casual shalwar kameez. The bride and/or the groom are brought forward in the ceremony under a decorative dupatta by their close relatives.
A shot from one of my late night shoots a Serena. I imagined a queen on her throne as I looked through the viewfinder. Cleopatra was the first thing that came in mind, still struggling for a perfect caption for this image to make it a classic :)

My greatest wish for the two of you is that through the years your love for each other will so deepen and grow, that years from now you will look back on this day, your wedding day, as the day you loved each other the least.
