Hello and all my dear friends in the photo-essay community I am Menti and this is the first post that I share with you here. I hope wherever you are you are doing well and everything is fine there. Let’s go and start where the story begins. Do you believe in love at first sight?
This man you see here is my nephew and this is a proposal ceremony that with family and flowers and sweets with coordination we went to that girl’s house and I asked her hand from her family. In fact this is a romantic and eternal bond between them and I am here as the narrator and also the one who takes photos with his camera and shares this story of high love with you.
And one of the important points is that most people in their first shared ceremony in life are not as comfortable as they should be and are still a little shy and this shyness has a direct effect on photography. Many of the brides and grooms that I deal with on the day of the party and the wedding ceremony usually feel a little shy among the guests. That is why the photos I took have more of a documentary style.
As you can see in one of the photos the look of this couple is not towards the camera and they were looking to another side. That tall man you see in the photo is the groom’s father a very humorous person who is my brother and interestingly he has done thirty years of directing work and he is considered one of the unknown professional artists. The reason I say unknown is because we believed that we should never go after fame and he always for his love and in the moment and for capturing that good feeling has presented his art and never exchanged it for material things.
I brought a very beautiful bouquet for the bride and based on some customs also some other items. I hope that I live long enough so that in the future I can share their wedding photos with my dear ones and I hope that you have received a good feeling from the other photos.
The photo where a woman is kissing the bride and hugging her is actually the photo of the mother-in-law and the bride and this lady is my sister in law.
I have one piece of advice because of what I see in lives and because of my job and that is to let and provide a ground so that young people and lovers can reach each other. Because when you do not reach what you want something you do not want rules your life.
Thanks to my dear friend who was with me until the end of the post I hope you have a good day. Before that I also say well done to the members of the photo-essay community who make a lot of effort for this platform and this community. I hope you have a good day. Until another meeting goodbye.
