When my best friend, Inoka, told me that her sister, Renu, was having a wedding reception in Ottawa after tying the knot in Dominican Republic, I immediately booked my weekend off from shooting weddings. I wasn’t going to miss this party! And what’s a party without a whole bunch of family and friends from in, around and out of town? Made for a great crowd. With yummy food everywhere. Music you can really dance to. Yes, even with a sari on! And speaking of sari, I headed over to Renu’s “camp” before the party to get fitted with a nice navy blue one that Inoka brought for me (thank you again). I hung out with the ladies – the shower was non stop, the hair dryer and curling iron were in heavy rotation, there was a hint of hair spray and nail polish in the air, and a bit of steam from all the delicate saris. The house was packed with people and I had fun taking photos of everyone getting ready! For this post though, I wanted to dedicate it to these two beautiful ladies – Renu and and her beautiful daughter, Jaidyn. Check out a few of my faves!
