ö It was late December when I met Farah. You know how that saying about six degrees of separation? Here’s the break down of how I met, got to know and essentially knew Farah without even knowing it! My good friend Rae knew Haya who knew Farah {more or less} who then got to know me? So what’s that – 2 degrees of separation, I guess?? haha :P!
ö Needless to say Farah and I exchanged many phone calls, texts, emails, voice mails and we ended up playing phone-tag for a bit! With my schedule and her’s never aligning for the right time to meet up or talk initially- it ended up working out for the best. If there’s one thing I love about taking the time to book clients months or even a year before their wedding – it’s the relationship I get to build with them over that time period. Farah and I and Rohail {eventually} went from becoming mere clients with plenty of inquiries to really great people that I had the opportunity to get to know.

ö I can’t thank you both for the opportunity and great time you gave my team and me as well over the last 3 days of your wedding extravaganza! Farah – you still owe me a cupcake! Rohail – dude you rock! To both of your families – Insha’Allah! Thank you for humbly accepting my team + myself into your humble abodes to film a great starting point & exciting part of your lives.
ö I wish you both nothing but the best & to you both – when I come down to Dubai – I plan on having the best cupcakes ever made on that side of the world! =D
ö Here’s the final Next Day Edit I cut together in less than two days running on practically Empty to 7 hours of sleep 🙂 Be sure to check out some behind the scenes pictures of those three days below as well!
