India
Wednesday, April 11, 2007
As some of you may know, I visited India for two weeks in January. I left my camera in my hotel room quite a bit of the time, but did pull it out every so often. The images below include the Taj Majal in Agra, the Ardh Kumbh Mela in Allahabad (the largest human gathering in history [with 10 million people during our visit], which happens during the sixth year in the 12-year Kumbh Mela cycle), the dress market in Jaipur, and a few random street scenes from Udaipur and Old Delhi. I could visit India 20 times and still not capture a splinter of its vast and rich landscape. I am grateful to my client Payal Mann for putting me in touch with her uncle, General Manjit Sandhu, who graciously welcomed me into his New Delhi home for dinnner while I was there.

The DWF Conference
Some of you might know that I'm one of the moderators for the Digital Wedding Forum, an online community of wedding and portrait photographers that boasts 5,000+ members. This year, I was chosen to speak at the annual DWF Conference in Las Vegas. I co-presented with
David Mielcarek from New York, and our session, which focused on the use of lighting, was well attended and reviewed. The conference is always a great opportunity to see friends from around the country and the world. Be sure to check out my talented colleagues' web sites by clicking on their names below.

South Asian Bridal Expo
I recently participated in the South Asian Bridal Expo, produced by Unique Elegance and Ravissant. The event was heavily attended and the fashion show, sponsored by Atirma, was managed by my bride Maneka, whose wedding appears in the "Featured Weddings" section of my web site. Here are a few photos of my booth:
