Stacy and Tushar

Tushar is another old co-worker of mine and one of the most easy-going guys you'll meet. When he approached me about shooting his wedding, he put it quite plain and simple. "I know you know what you're doing and I trust you." That meant a lot at a time when I hadn't started pursuing my photography full time. I knew from personal experience, that despite the sarcastic and dry English exterior, Tush was a big playful kid at heart. He had to be to explain his winning over Stacy's heart to begin with. I wanted to capture that in their engagement shot, so I encouraged them to just have fun with each other and I'd occasionally tell them to look over at the camera if necessary. What was followed was a 3 hour make-out session for the couple with a few breaks thrown in there to get to the next location. I warned Tush that it was going to be hard to put on that tough-guy attitude once these photographs were passed around the office.
