tiffany stone is one of the wonderful makeup artists we work with. both she and her work are stunning. and check this out… she gets to be a bride twice! first – in august – was her indian wedding. her fiance’s family wanted the couple to have an indian wedding. her other wedding will be in october. anyways, here are a few shots from her “mehndi party.” web definition of mehndi party is “the party where the bride gets adorned with intricate henna designs.” did i mention the food was amazing?
there were goodies for all the guests.

i don’t know why I love this shot, but i do. maybe it’s a steve martin, father of the groom, kind of moment.

did i tell you that my nikon d700 is sexy?

bring on the henna.

the lemon juice helps to darken the color of the henna.

amar surprising tiffany with some flowers.

in indian tradition, whatever child the couple has their first picture taken with will determine wether it’s a boy or a girl. tiffany didn’t want to know, so we piled all the kids on the couch with them.

more of tiffany’s henna.

i simply love the details at indian weddings.

wow!

…and now the hands!



the henna artist always write the groom’s name somewhere in the design. it’s up to the groom to find it.

the indian wedding blog post is coming soon, and we can’t wait till october!
