From the first time I met Ben and Atiaf I knew this was going to be a great couple to work with. They had amazing chemistry, were really laid back and got along beautifully. They also really trusted me to get the right shots and even allowed me to convince them to meet me at 8:30 in the morning at Talaat Harb on a Friday morning to start this shoot. Our goal was to get shots in the middle of one of Cairo’s busiest streets when it was completely empty. After shooting on Talaat Harb and around there for a bit we moved over to Zamalek’s Aquarium Park (Ganaynat al Asmak). Ben is from France and Atiaf is Yemeni and the wedding conducted a few days after this shoot was a crazy but incredibly fun party. Keep your eyes open for those pictures in the coming weeks. For now, meet Atiaf and Ben.

I really had a great time shooting this wedding. Nada came to me a couple of months back telling me how much she wanted me to be there and how her and Tarek had been together for the last decade or so. I could see how excited she was to get married and I was happy to be a part of the day. We had a great time with Ferrero Rochers (very tasty, as you can see in the pictures below
during prep. Jeff did a great job with her makeup and the bridesmaids and Nada, who all used to be synchronized swimmers performed this crazy dance routine in the middle of the party. Tarek and his friends were a lot of fun to hang out with and while the pics didn’t make the blog post Tarek had a really cool pair of underwear with a special superhero… ehem the Black Panther. The party was a blast and the pics came out great. Have a look and let me know what you think.
