My favorite wedding images of 2019

These are my favorite wedding images of 2019, most of these are unposed images and free of photographers’ direction, full of emotion pictures that document a couple’s story. Every year (see more from 2018 and 2017), like any photographer, I’ll work on areas of weakness and eliminate mistakes while pushing creatively. It is, after all, about ‘seeing.‘ It’s…

Neha and Mrugesh are Chicagoans who decided to have a destination South Asian Indian wedding in Austin, Texas.
