South Asian Weddings

Pandya Photography

Okay so I might be finally posting this because I'm not feeling well so I don't care that I'm being rude. It could also be because I'm fed up and we don't have a MOD to do it. Seriously STOP staying in EVER SINGLE post you are a Photographer!!! Your title says it enough. You are walking on a thin Vendor line. You have given some good advice and I'm sure the girls appreciate, but you even refered to you being a photographer in a henna post where honestly was that really needed?

You haven't even taken to fill out your bio on the knot. In one post you said your "soon to be wife" and just now you said your wife. I will probably get flamed for this thread. If you are really planning a wedding then great glad to have you, but if you are just trying to show everyone you are a photographer because a lot of girls on here are from NJ/NY then stop it please.

    Hey,

    Sorry I upset you. I am just giving my point of view as a person who has been to many weddings, and seen quite a bit of the most tiny details a guest would miss out on. Most people will not listen to a guys point of view unless he has some sort of background in the industry.

    I mentioned my profession in the mehndi thread because that is why I know so many artists, and have real photos of their work on real brides done on site. I think those pictures are more valuable than mehndi photos that have been done on hands slowly, in a controlled environment for portfolio use. To me, it would be useful to see real stuff so I can see what type of work the artist does under pressure, with loud music, with 20 aunties waiting to get their mehndi done and the clock ticking.

    Also, if I called her my wife, I am getting a bit excited. Sorry about that.
    I think you may be talking about my last thread:

    "So me and my wife to be"

    We are not married yet, that is why I put "to be". If I wrote it incorrectly somewhere else on the board, please let me know and I will correct it.

    I am not here to solicit my services, just help out folks. There are other vendors here too, and their business name is their user name as well. They do not solicit their services, but help when they can. I do the same.

    Just for clarification, when I joined I had no wedding date. Now that we do and I cannot change my bio. Read this:

    http://wedding.theknot.com/wedding-tools-help-center/wedding-shopping-list-help/articles/changing-your-wedding-date-in-your-shopping-list.aspx

    Check out the comments by other Knotties, it is kind of tough to make changes to the date so I said to heck with it! My venue was recently confirmed and everything is a bit last minute.

    Some of the girls here have been super helpful and gave me some really good ideas. I thought I'd help out by clearing some of the mysteries surrounding what I know about best; photography. It is a very expensive service and I have heard so many horror stories, I am glad I can help out here and thank you for acknowledging some of my useful posts. Hopefully I can make some more good contributions.

    Again, sorry if I upset you.
