Ansa & Zubair: A Wedding Filled with Tradition and Love
The start of 2025 couldn’t have been more spectacular than capturing the wedding of Ansa and Zubair at the Heritage Club at Bethpage. This celebration was not only the beginning of their life together but also a vibrant tribute to their Indian roots, blending culture, tradition, and love seamlessly.
We began the day documenting the getting ready moments. Ansa was surrounded by her loved ones, who helped with the final touches to her bridal attire. Her outfit, a stunning lehenga adorned with intricate golden and red embroidery, shimmered with every detail meticulously crafted. Her makeup accentuated her natural beauty, while her traditional jewelry added a regal touch. Meanwhile, Zubair and his friends were equally enthusiastic as they prepared. His sherwani, impeccably chosen, highlighted his elegance.
The ceremony, held at the Heritage Club, was a visual and emotional masterpiece. From Zubair’s baraat entrance, accompanied by vibrant music and the excitement of his family, to Ansa’s breathtaking entrance, every moment was filled with symbolism and emotion. Photographing the traditional rituals, such as the garland exchange and the ceremony under the mandap, felt like capturing the very essence of their love and commitment.
The photo session was pure magic. The Heritage Club gardens provided the perfect backdrop. Ansa and Zubair shared intimate glances and laughter, making each photo radiate their special connection. Their outfits, rich in detail and color, added a spectacular contrast against the winter tones of the landscape.
The reception was a feast for the senses. The venue’s décor blended modern elegance with traditional touches: tables adorned with warm colors, golden accents, and vibrant flowers. The music brought the evening to life, with traditional dances mixed with modern beats that got everyone on their feet. Heartfelt speeches highlighted the unique qualities of Ansa and Zubair and the journey that led them to this special day.
As a photographer, it was an incredible honor to witness such a culturally rich and love-filled wedding. Every moment, from getting ready to the final dance, was meaningful, and capturing these memories was an unforgettable experience.
Ansa and Zubair, thank you for allowing me to be part of your story. May your union always be as full of passion and joy as it was on your special day.
