I was going through some of my images when I came across this one and I remember when I was photographing this, Lakhbir's dad came in and made sure everything was perfect before he took her down the aisle. What a lucky daughter.

Education..

2009-02-04T15:00:00.001-08:00

Recently I had a an opportunity to go to one of Dane Sanders talks. He is the author of 'Fast Track photographer'. Glad that I was there. Thanks Dane for the inspiring evening.

A quick iphone picture that I had taken.

I WAS THERE... INAUGURATION DAY

2009-01-21T18:10:00.000-08:00

So we battled the odds, rather the cold I should say and met some of our closest 2 million friends. Long lines welcomed us everywhere. We went to the concert as well, listening to U2 for free was the highlight as well. And ofcourse the inauguration day was great and so was the parade for which we patiently waited to start.
Even though I'm from eastern Canada, I have never stayed outside for as many hours as I did at the inaugural, realized that I'm not used to the cold anymore.

We were lucky enough to get the last tour of the capital on Saturday before they shut it for a secure lock down before the inauguration.

The cold D.C streets.

My husband attempting to take a picture with my DSLR. Some day, I'm going to have to give him some basic lessons on using the camera

Zarqa's mehendi

2009-01-15T09:44:00.001-08:00

Zarqa's mehendi was very festive. I had a great time photographing this colorful event. I couldn't help but admire all the little details that Zarqa had worked on. Her mother was very sweet and very emotional on this special day. Also, I had a chance to meet her dad and he is an adorable man.
High-five Zarqa, on your beautiful Mehendi rasam.

A quick picture of me and Zarqa on my iphone. Thanks Dr.J for taking it .

1/2 Marathon = 13 miles

2008-12-17T17:46:00.000-08:00

A few days ago, if you would've asked me what half a marathon meant, I couldn't have answered it. Thanks to a dear friend, who has encouraged me, I plan to run half a marathon ( 13 MILES ) in early Feb 2009.

Every so often, I've experienced moments of wanting to be active, but most often these urges have settled down with a quick trip to a sports store where I bought some athletic clothes, felt good by spending the money and never gotten around to the real deal.

I plan to stick my training and be in my training pants every week and of course drag my friend along with me. I am keen on not falling sick or taking any time off from the training. Since I've never run a marathon before, every day is crucial. If I actually complete this endeavor, I will post it here.

Thank you to my friend for pushing me and running with me everyday. We'll be inching our way to the finish line, but we should make it. (or so I hope!)

Time for some inspiration : Fauja Singh is a 98 year old who runs marathons. He was the face for Adidas's marketing campaign in 2004. Back then he had replaced David Beckham as Adidas's poster boy.

Kauai

2008-11-19T13:57:00.000-08:00

Who doesn't love a vacation.. I know I love 'em
My husband and I spent our anniversary in Kauai. I was amazed by how lush the island was. The locals were friendly, the fruits yummy. I've never seen bigger avocados. Needless to say, I have been very inspired to do landscape photography.
Thank you my love, my husband for taking me to this breathtaking place.

A smile is worth a thousand words...

A lot of you may have seen the image of this glowing bride on my website, now you can see her featured on the cover of a photography book to be published in Jan 2009 by TCB Publishing & Media. I was encouraged by the friends to enter this comeptition.

This is an unexpected but welcome surprise. I can't wait to get my hands on the book, I guess that's how the publishing world works on timeframes.

Sharan & Paul

2008-07-03T14:28:00.000-07:00

Sharan and Paul are young, cool 'n hip. They make a very cute couple. Sharan was glowing and Paul looked very handsome in his sherwani. Paul's family from SoCal was tons of fun. The wedding was filled with emotions throughout the day. The reception was at Hyatt in Santa Clara, with coordination and decor by lovely Victoria at Victoria's Floral, make-up by Tamanna at Dress your face, cake by Margaret's French Bakery and catering by Darbar.

It was very touching to see how Paul greeted his mother when he saw her.

The King & Queen of the day.
