Susie and Shawn wedding in Troy, MI Jan 11
Back in October I had a free Saturday and connected with Chicago wedding photographer Nate Mathai to shoot a great wedding with him in Troy, MI. I don’t get many opportunities to second shoot, but I absolutely loved photographing this Indian wedding (with an Orthodox ceremony) because the food was awesome, it was really colorful, and they knew how to party! Nate put up his post of the wedding last week here, and I’m happy to see that a lot of his favorites from me were my favorites also.

Incredible! Candid!! Sensory!!!
Love the glimpse into another culture, the vibrant colors, the tender shots and of course the romance…wowed in all directions! Blessings on the couple and thank you for your artistic capture of it all!
Wow that looked that was a good time. My favorite picture is the one where you captured the little boy looking up–that cathedral is so grand they’re getting married in–and you can see that level of grandness in that little boy’s face.
Great job! I’ve been to a wedding like this before and they are so much fun! I love their music too! lol
I especially love the shots of the bride dancing with her dad!
Beautiful vibrant colours, love your reception lighting!
Beautiful colors! I would love to know how you lit the church so well especially with the wide first photo.
Thanks everyone!
Avelaine, I didn’t use any lighting in the church, it was naturally lit like that, though very dark.
What a wicked wedding. They were getting down on the dance floor! The shot of her dancing with her father is amazing… such a great moment and you captured it perfectly.
What a great job catching the emotions of the wedding! Stunning images, great captures. Nice work!
It was great shooting with you, Brett! You definitely got some amazing shots throughout the day for me- Susie and Shawn loved it. Take care, man!
Great job documenting their special day! I especially love the father-daughter dance
Holy cow Brett, this post is hardcore!
And even after looking through all of them, my favorite is still the first top right photo. Love that style of focusing behind the couple, nice work!
These are all very beautiful!! My favorite though is the one of them in the park, orange leaves fill most of the image and they are in the very bottom right corner – that photograph is superb.
Wow Brett! You did an amazing job on these! I LOVE the dancing shots of the bride with her dad and the bride/groom first dance…the lighting is just perfect. You did a really great job on all the dancing shots, looks great!
Wow! Your reception lighting is amazing! Really love the one of them with the cake. I need to start backlighting like that!
Wow Brett! Another amazing wedding.
Wow! Your timing and lighting is impeccable! Very consistent…
That looks like a real fun wedding!!
Wow! This looks like a super fun wedding! Your pictures are great- Very vibrant and capture the range of emotion. Well done!
Wonderful colours and emotions captured.
Looked like you had a wonderful time capturing this wedding!
