Weddings « Rima Darwash

Blogging is hard work. But there are no excuses, I SHOULD be blogging more! I’ve just had a busy wedding season, and still catching up with my post editing, albums and client emails, and meetings.

That being said, I know I should show you fine folks some of the work I’ve been doing…

I had such a blast at this wedding! Aaron and Yolanda got married at Cabra Castle in Ireland. Having lived in the UK for most of my life, I had never been to Ireland so I was pretty excited!! Ireland is beautiful, and so is the Irish charm!! Thank you so much for letting me part of your event, it was an honour and a pleasure.

I also have to thank Amish Solanki who had come all the way from Canada. Your cinematography work is amazing, and I know I’ve made a good friend…hopefully we can work together on a shoot soon!

I’m officially in love with all things Greek, especially their weddings!!! I honestly don’t know where to begin with this blog post. This wedding was fabulous…from the amazing amount of details, to the seriously hot bride and groom, and all their guests. It was such a pleasure to document this spectacular event. Kyri’s mum is actually a wedding planner, and plan this wedding she did!

I met Kyri and Eleni at the Asiana Bridal exhibition earlier this year; they had already booked a photographer, but after speaking to me I was flattered that they had decided to use my services instead. Thank you guys it was truly an honour to cover your wedding.

I also had the pleasure with shooting alongside my good friend and awesome photographer Beena Menon, from Kumi Photography. When Kyri asked for a second photographer to shoot the groom’s side getting ready, I knew straight away who to ask. Thanks Beens it was wicked shooting with you!!!

I loved this idea; it is traddition to add the bridesmaids names to the bottom of the bride’s shoe, and whoever name is wiped off by the end of the night, means she’s next inline to marry!

On to the ceremony…The Greek Orthodox Church architecture and decoration was phenomenal.

I loved Kyri and Eleni’s choice of location for their bride and groom portrait shoot. I love working in urban surroundings it makes a refreshing change, it also gives that slight funky cool modern edge to the photos, juxtaposing the urban location with such a pretty looking couple.

The impromptu dance in the middle of the street was just the icing on the cake (no pun intended!) People were unsure weather it was models posing for pictures for a publicity shoot!
