Sara + Raj

Its a total family affair with Raj + Sara. We photographed Sara’s sister Rachel’s wedding back in 2009. Rachel and Sara are also Ben’s cousins and its so fun to photograph a wedding where people you love are involved. Raj+Sara’s wedding was a little crazy. Due to an all day drizzle fest, their outdoor wedding headed indoors. Depsite the weather, we still traipsed around KC capturing some amazing moments between these two. It was so apparent to us how honored they felt to be with the other, that they got “picked”. It was a sweet time.

First look in a windy tunnel with pretty light…

The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, a wealth of visual inspiration. No amount of drizzle could have kept us inside.

This black sculpture completely captivated me. Sara’s delicate porcelain skin against the black texture was outrageous.

LOVE.

One of my favorites of the day. LOVE LOVE LOVE. This was such a quiet moment for all of us.

This is where the wedding was supposed to be. We stopped by just to see how wet it truly was but ultimately Sara + Raj had to make the final call to move their ceremony. It was sad, but we were able to capture these almost fairly tale like images.

No filters used here, just lovely rose bushes softening the scene. I and in LOVE.

The actual ceremony spot. *sigh* But we were all cheered up with some champagne!

The ceremony was moved to the River Market Event Space, the site of their reception. If it was going to be moved inside, we were SO thankful it was here. There was so much natural light and great architecture. Also, both these guys love climbing….notice the groom’s cake. :)

Slightly giddy?

The Don’t Give Up Project, a select group of photographers who care more about marriage than wedding photography. Marriage is seriously our passion. Ask any of our couples. Join the Movement, find out more here!

And then the REAL dance party got started. Watching these families dance together was hilarious and a little dizzying, theres a lot of dancing in circles.

Raj + Sara’s parents. Its inspiring to us to see couples who’ve made made marriage work. Its worth it people!

Raj+Sara, Thank you for such a sweet sweet day with you. We hope these images will be such a blessing to you as you remember the most important commitment you will ever make! We love you!!
