Hear hear all brides to be, You MUST have a look at this holi pre wedding shoot trend! Colourful and creative, this is one pre wedding shoot idea we can totally get behind! For those who aren’t familiar with it – a holi shoot is one that’s been doing the rounds in the Indian wedding circuit lately. Here, couples literally play with heaps of holi colour, as their awesome photographer captures these precious moments for posterity.
Why opt for this?
- Its super cheap! – Budget bonanza! Holi colours are quite literally the cheapest props you’ll get for the shoot and whatever corners you cut here, you can spend on your wedding décor! (or outfit, we won’t judge you)
- Its crazy fun – Boy oh boy! Oodles of colour heaped onto plates free for the taking! An adorable face off between you and your S.O. – what’s not to like? *Excited main edda*
- It will literally bring you closer – This shoot gives you the license to get down, dirty and super cozy with your S.O.! You know what they say – bura na mano holi hai! So, under the guise of this colourful session feel free to indulge in few stolen moments together. Bring on the mischievous albeit colourful flirting that you will both love. The camera couldn’t have asked for more candid moments!
- Bollywood says it’s cool – How many movies have we seen that tell us colour bring couples closer! Whether it was kaka in aaj na chodenge, or Sunny Deol and his 2 and a half kg hand in Darr (insert kkk kiran here), Deepika and old boyfriend Ranbir in Balam Pichkari or Deepika and new boyfriend Ranveer in Ram Leela (erm lahoo mooh lag gaya *refer to previous point on flirty and frisky). All these superhit Bollywood moments only point towards the fact that this shoot idea is a blockbuster!
- The result is insanely beautiful – Wisps of colour floating in the air, the air of mischief surrounding you and the smile on your vibrant multicoloured faces – the resultant images are simply amazing!
