Christine and Nader Wed in Cairo Garden | Cairo Egypt Wedding Photography

Christine and Nader were a wonderful couple to work with. Christine was a huge fan of my work and while many of my clients have told me how much they tell their friends about me I have never attended a wedding at which so many of the guests had visited my website (at Christine’s instructions) and greeted me with compliments regarding my photography. The day went beautifully. We began in Christine’s grandmother’s old apartment in Garden City which was absolutely stunning. Also Christine’s grandmother was exceptionally sweet to us during our time at the flat. Then we moved to the Church near Korba and finally ended up at a garden near Alexandria Desert Road. The reception venue was beautiful and we arrived a couple of hours before sunset allowing for photographing in the most beautiful light a photographer can ask for. Here are some of the images that tell the days story. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. Thanks.

Omar and Kathryn Wed at Katameya Heights in New Cairo | Cairo Egypt Wedding Photography

Omar and Kathryn are a great couple I met this last December. They’re based in DC where I used to live and came out here to celebrate their wedding near Omar’s family which is based in Cairo. They had a second ceremony in Nebraska near Kathryn’s family. I had a wonderful time at their wedding. DJ Roro and Said Mrad did an amazing job keeping people dancing. Dina Iskandar’s decor was excellent as always. Omar and Kathryn brought together an exceptionally cosmopolitan group of friends from just about everywhere with some pretty incredible and energetic dancers amongst them as you’ll see below. Thanks Omar and Kathryn for having me on your special day and congrats to you both.

Karen and Bassel Wed at Katameya Heights in Cairo | Cairo Egypt Wedding Photography

Karen and Bassel were a great couple to work with who are among the most patient I have ever had as clients. Thanks again for that;-)They’re both a lot of fun and definitely know how to party. We started the day at the JW Marriott in New Cairo. Shady from Mohamed Sagheer did a brilliant job on Karen’s makeup and Karen was pretty ecstatic when he finished. Then my friend Mass Gharios came in to do Karen’s hair and was artful as always. Dina Iskander and her team did an amazing job decorating and lighting the Basilique Church in Korba and Katemeya Heights for the reception. My friend Ray quenched all the guests thirst with his masterful cocktail mixing skills. The DJ, Samba did a great job keeping the guests on the dance floor and making me work overtime. We were supposed to finish early! 15 and a half hours after I arrived at the JW Marriott to shoot Karen’s makeup the party had dwindled from around 700 guests to 20 or 30 and Bassel and I chatted at the bar before I headed off. That said I had a wonderful time and think we got some great photos. Let me know what you think.

Also I’d like to extend a special thanks to my friend Steve for loaning me his golf clubs for a special photo below. I need to get those back to you;-)
