George Mavitzis Photography | Destination Wedding Photographer | Californian Pakistani Wedding
I have been blessed with a certain family in Montreal that continuously invite me to be their wedding photographer. We all know how colourful Pakistani weddings or any South Asian weddings can be but it’s not only about this. Spending multiple days with all the family members and friends you quickly sense that you truly belong. Literally from the moment you walk into the homes you don’t feel like just the photographer. The genuine hospitality is overwhelming, to a point that you forget that you have a job to do. There’s probably nothing more important as an ingredient for my style of photography than this, that caring and participating in this traditional event is just as important to the task of capturing the images.
So this respect and trust this one family has shared with me, was then equally felt when their extended family in San Jose California hired me. What another delightful experience, what another beautiful couple…..

After more than a thousand weddings that I have photographed, I ask myself what continues to drive my passion. There are many aspects that can be captured, from emotions, details, joyful expressions and many other expected and unexpected moments. As important as these are I have one very important expectation from myself. The word timeless is one I hear often from my clients when they describe my photographs. This word timeless probably suits South Asian weddings perfectly as they are strong on tradition and ritual. Their wedding attire probably hasn't change in decades or maybe centuries. From the quality and choice of the fabrics, to the vibrant colours which hold great significance. It seems that all these aspects play a role in maintaining the timelessness of the many days of the wedding. I continue to study as a I create and learn as I edit. The posted wedding below may be from 2013 but in today's trendy wedding photography world I am proud to see that the esthetic of my photography is at par with the traditions of these weddings.
