I  ♥ iHeartFaces =)

I recently exited the world of 'corporate slavery' and got inspired (by the likes of J*) to follow my dreams of being a photographer... and here I am...
in my efforts to become a better blogger and a more serious photographer, I decided to submit a photo for my 1st photo-contest. {wish me luck!!!}

I captured this priceless moment as Leyla & Eyyub felt the chills from the cold wind blowing the water from the fountain onto them. . .

I was blessed to have had the opportunity to fly-out to shoot my friend's wedding in the "windy city" of Baku, Azerbaijan.
Most of my friends and family had never even heard of the place but it is a beautiful little country on the shores of the Caspian Sea... and it is by far,
the most hospitable place with the most friendly and loving people I have ever visited in my time here on earth.
Being a Punjabi (Indian) myself, I thought Punjabi hospitality was as good as it gets but I admit that the Azeris can out-do us anyday!
It was an honor to capture Eyyub and Leyla's special day.
I promise I'll edit and update their wedding on my blog veryyy soon!

and now, in the spirit of “Just For Fun” here is a photo from Leyla & Eyyub’s reception…
Eyyub’s nephew, Ismail didn’t speak a word of english, but enjoyed the entire event on the “American-Table” with us…
just another friendly and loving Azeri making a few American friends!
