wedding customs
Indian culture and wedding customs.
This photograph belongs to the “randomly picked photographs” series.
On the weddings day, the bride and her family fulfilled the Chura and Haid custom, this wonderful custom when family and guests surround the bride using fire, scents, water, milk, colors, symbols and of course flowers while the priest is chanting! So nice!
A detail photograph, description of the traditional wedding custom. This photograph could have the title “yellow” as this color prevail on the image!
While both color and black and white format, worked well, I decided to present the colored version.
By the way, on every wedding project, I deliver each image both in color and black and white format.
