Hi friends! Welcome to the AKP Blog! I'm Ashley Kapic and I'm a New Orleans + Gulf coast wedding photographer. Snuggle up with your love and feel free to browse around for some inspiration and enjoy viewing my latest work! Thanks for stopping by!
Surabhi and Nishant were seriously so much fun! We actually had two sessions- one in their traditional Indian attire, and one with regular outfits! I was especially SOOOO excited to photograph their colorful Indian garments. I am such a fan of color. When in the planning phase of our session, Surabhi sent me photos of a bunch of saree choices, I was immediately drawn to the bold hot pink and gold one! I’m so glad we chose that one because it seriously pops! 🙌🏻
Both Surabhi and her fiancé Nishant are from India, but moved here to study for their Masters at ODU! They are getting married in India in December and I just can’t wait to see the images!! It’s seriously my dream to photograph a traditional Indian wedding one day! (Which is typically 3-4 days in celebration!)
After our super fun and relaxed session at CNU, we decided to do a beach session as well. So a few days later they drove up to meet me at Yorktown beach, where we were met with some ANGRY dark clouds! I was freaking out and totally unprepared as the weather had called for 0% chance of rain all day! However the rain held out for a good half hour and I just went with it! We got great images even with the clouds as dark as night AND the insanely crazy wind. (At one point I thought we were going to get blown away! 😂) The very last image is when it started to rain and I got some pretty neat blurry rain specks on my lens which made an interesting photo!
Thank you Surabhi and Nishant for trusting me as your photographer! I loved you guys so much and I’m so happy to have met you! I hope you have a perfect wedding!!
