Here is a a love story that just triumphs in every possible front. A photographer tells us about the most emotional wedding he has shot till date, a lovely Telugu-Marathi union set in a remote village. The groom was visually-challenged, but more than challenging, the wedding was moving. The wedding photos are raw with some genuine, beautiful emotions captured on camera. Varun Kodolikar from Kodoclicker tells us about the wedding of Keerthi and Ekinath, which is so heartwarming and touching!
"Early in Sept I get an inquiry on WedMeGood. After a brief chat, the bride tells me that it could be a challenge to shoot this wedding as the groom is visually impaired. More than a challenge, I was blown away by this story. What I saw is an opportunity to shoot something that is beyond beautiful, a love story that just triumphs in every possible front."
"Cut to December, we are travelling to a remote village in Chiplun where Keerthi & Ekinath tied their knot. A tamil -marathi union, 2 days of absolutely raw & real emotions.While Keerthi was the calm & composed one, Ekinath was the chirpy, bubbly & funny one!"
"Biggest plus as an artist, is that I was given the creative freedom to shoot images which I felt captured the essence of the two cultures, location & their chemistry.
