Imran Aur Sonia - Engagement Shoot

After an extremely busy weekend, our bodies aching, and eyes burning, we wanted to just turn in and go to sleep. But we knew it wasn't that easy. For you see we were itching to get to our cameras and look at the pictures from Imran and Sonia's engagement shoot.

You know when you're in university, and you have friends over, and you haven't slept in two days because of an assignment, and you know you won't be getting much sleep the next few nights because of that essay due on Monday, but you still push the limits of your body because you're just having way too much fun. Yeah ... it was kind of like that. Except we're not as young as we once were. But we're not that old either; so on we went ooo'ing and aah'ing at the pictures. Then we decided we were going to edit some of them. Just a few. So we selected a few pictures. Then a few more. Then just a few more. You get the picture (corny pun intended)!

But see here's the thing. Everything went just right at this shoot. According to the weather people it was supposed to rain on Saturday. It didn't. We were supposed to do the shoot in the afternoon when the light is harsh. It wasn't. The couple was good looking damn good looking! They knew what to do in front of the camera. Usually we give instructions, but with Imran and Sonia, we would only say, "Could you ..." and they would do something better than what we were going to suggest, and we would shut up, pretend that's what we meant, and take silent credit for it. And above all, the colors. The colors were working for us. Color for us is like that 30 second guitar solo that you keep rewinding and listening to over and over again. That makes you wanna close your eyes and imagine yourself playing guitar in a football stadium, except you're doing it in front of your photocopy machine while the HR lady is looking. Ok ... we're rambling.

So we'll shut up. And ladies and gentleman, we give you, Imran Aur Sonia.
