Aksheta & Jordan – New Orleans , US

I photographed my first Indian wedding! An extraordinary experience to be a photographer at such an event. Aksheta is of Indian nationality and Jordan is American. Their big day occurred entirely at the Four Seasons in New Orleans, a gorgeous hotel that put everything at our disposal.

The day started with the preparations of the two, accompanied by their family and closest friends. Because of the many traditions involved in Indian weddings, I needed to shoot super fast. Then followed a very emotional first look between the two and the ceremony that started with songs and dances, together with the whole family, on the most important boulevard in New Orleans, Canal Street. In an unprecedented moment, hundreds of people watched the show, which for more than 30 minutes blocked the traffic, giving the whole city a show.

Nirvana Weddings played an exemplary role in organizing the luxury wedding, offering an extraordinary setting, full of symbols specific to an Indian ceremony, but above all colorful photographs.

The cocktail hour and the party had a series of moments where family and friends shared their joys and emotions through various speeches and dances specific to Indian weddings.

I photographed the whole wedding enthusiastically and invite you to view their story too!
