Destination Wedding Photography – Naivasha, Kenya
This was let-your-hair-down day. With Parit and Sonal now married, a day of fun and more celebration was planned with a pool party and formal reception. After the chaotic excitement of day one and the incredible emotion of day two, day three was all about getting soaked in the morning then partying the night away… Liam and I stuck around until 2:30am and the party was still going strong!
It was also a day of more surprises, and yet more incredible styling (all the work of Sonal and her sister, executed by Chetna and her team of helpers). A patch of grass was transformed into a fairytale reception venue with a truly special atmosphere for the hilarious speeches, absolutely delicious dinner and epic dancing.
I know, I know… you just want to see the photos! I give you day three of Sonal and Parit’s kenya wedding extravaganza…

So many memories will stick with me about this wedding. I loved and savoured every minute of it, learning the traditions of a hindu wedding as I went along. I knew it would be full on and at times it was simply a job of keeping up with the action but I really felt like I became a part of this wedding, witnessing the transformation of a family, the pride felt towards Sonal and Parit by their parents and families and just how much every single guest had the time of their lives. At times it felt surreal and by the end I was running on adrenalin, but I had the time of my life too – this was a highlight of my photography career and an experience I’ll not forget in a hurry.
Parit and Sonal – congratulations and thank you so much for putting your faith in me and inviting me to be the one to capture your celebrations. And thank you again to my good friend Liam Crawley for your company, enthusiasm and assistance along the way, it was great to work together buddy.
And if you’re planning a destination wedding in Kenya, Africa or anywhere else in the world I would love to speak to you, so please get in touch!

One of the perks of being a photographer is looking at the work of others. It’s part pleasure, part inspiration and part picking up tips. Noticing the techniques used, how things are framed, how a shot was processed, how lighting was used, how the subjects were posed, etc.
Looking through these photos is different. This is pure story telling. The technical aspects (whilst excellent) just don’t come into it. Every frame isn’t just packed with emotion, it has its own narrative. As others have said before, this is world class stuff. Thank you!

Iv’e been looking forward to looking thorough all three of these blog posts….Wow – amazing. A wedding that had everything – you make me want to be a guest too! You have captured so much emotion – top stuff Adam!

Adam, looking through Sonal & Parit’s wedding has been an absolute joy… every image makes me smile. This wedding cements you as one of the finest wedding photographers this country has to offer. To be able to fly to a far off land so different to our own, shoot a wedding that included so many different aspects, many of which you would have never photographed before and to come away with a set of images like this takes awesome skill. You should be very proud Adam and the only was is up up up!

So so so good! Now THAT is a wedding.
I’ve got to say I’m insanely jealous that you and Liam got to experience this and you’ve captured it so well. Perfect job guys.
