Blush Pink and Gold Indian Wedding Editorial Photography at the Hyatt Recency on Lake Washington

Drag me!

I love how vibrant, colorful, and exciting Indian weddings are.

I love all of the tradition that is woven in to the decor, the attire, hair and makeup, and more. When Annu from Always Planning for You reached out to me to ask if I’d be interested in photographing an editorial shoot she was coordinating I jumped at the chance because this vision sounded so amazing. An Indian bride and groom in traditional wedding attire – except the colors are pushing the limits of “traditional” by a color other than red. Instead, we embraced popular color trends and chose gold and blush pink as the dominant colors of the shoot. Thanks to Annu’s great coordination, gold and pink were woven into every aspect of this styled wedding – the table settings, florals, mandap ceremony backdrop, wardrobe, invitation suite, jewelry and so much more. Please scroll down to see every detail including the incredible henna work. Every vendor included in this shoot worked so hard and they are all listed below for you to follow!

The Hyatt Regency on Lake Washington is a breathtaking wedding venue if you are looking for sweeping views of the water and downtown Seattle a few miles away.

This venue is perfectly tailored to host a large wedding thanks to the multiple ballrooms available, the grand staircase that was perfect for photos with our bride and groom, plus access to a rooftop balcony and dock along the lakeside. Our bride and groom in their gold and blush pink attire look perfectly in place next to the cool blue tones of the lake and the hills surrounding the venue.

I am so grateful to have been a part of such a beautiful vision coming to life and hope that I will be a part of more colorful wedding celebrations as soon as possible.

The amazing vendor team for this shoot made pure magic!

ready to tell your story?

Hi, I’m alex! A seattle wedding photographer who’s been documenting your stories since 2009.

I fell in love with photography almost 20 years ago in a darkroom class, and that love has never faded. What started as a darkroom class in college turned into photographing my first wedding solo in 2010,and I was hooked. The joy. The emotion. The vows. The details. The people.

I realized quickly that my fulfillment came from helping people see themselves in a beautiful, honest way. I move calmly. I guide confidently. I know how to capture all the angles and candid moments without you even noticing. My couples often say I have “photo superpowers” because of how much I capture while still keeping everything feeling easy and low-pressure.


Some photographers find wedding days chaotic.

I find them electric.
