As an Atlanta wedding photographer I get all kinds of requests.  A few weeks ago Saainya and Faizan contacted me and wanted to do a pre wedding photo session.  I asked her what she meant by that and she said she wanted to do a Bollywood themed photoshoot at a train station then a food based shoot at a restaurant since they were foodies.

We contacted the Southern Railway Museum located south of Duluth and asked if it was ok to shoot there and they said yes as long as you are not bringing some big lights.  I decided it would be best to start in the morning on the square in downtown Duluth, since they have so many great restaurants and there are many photo locations within walking distance.

Saturday morning came and we started at 9:30am at the Simply Done Donut shop.  It is a family owned artisanal donut store with these great little flavorful donuts.  The couple decided to go for the sprinkled donuts since it matched their outfits.  We got our donuts and went to the courtyard and Saainya started playfully feeding Faizan.  We then moved to a couple of cute locations by some windows and flowers.  Once we finished there we went to the fountain in front of the courthouse where Faizon pretended to propose to Sonja with the miniature donuts.  Saainya was so sassy and had a ball with it.  Once we got all our shots downtown we moved on to the train museum.

We arrived at the train museum just as they were opening.  We did a few shots of Saainya in her engagement dress then she changed into her Sari that was a copy from one of her favorite Bollywood movies.  We reenacted the scene of the girlfriend trying to catch the train her boyfriend was on.  It was a beautiful Sari and they were so determined to reenact the scene.  It was so much fun! We changed platforms and took some more photos to get more options.  

We chatted a lot where I learned where they came from and where Saainya came from India and can speak Hindi while Faizan’s parents came from Pakistan.  They are going to do their weddings in Atlanta and on the beach in Panama City. It was an honor to spend time with such a sweet couple.  It is truly an honor being an Atlanta wedding photographer.
