Persian Weddings | Rizza and Sasan

Majority of the weddings we shoot at Metrophoto are weddings in Manila. And given the not-so-many beautiful options of churches and venues, we end-up shooting in similar locations quite often. And while we take it as a challenge to make each event different from the others, every once in a while, there are weddings that you know are just uniquely special right from the start. Today’s wedding of Rizza and Sasan is that wedding that doesn’t come by so often – it’s detailed ornately, it’s filled with uniquely-beautiful people, and it’s Persian.

I’m pretty sure you’ll appreciate many of the things that you will see in the photographs below, as all of those present in the wedding did, but the thing I appreciated the most is how deeply nice Riza and Sasan are. I’m blessed to meet so many wonderful people with what I do, and I have to say that this couple is truly one of the most humble, most unassuming and kindest of them all. And what’s more unusual is that it may not be obvious right away given how strikingly beautiful they both are. It’s pretty amazing and I’m really grateful for that. :)

In fact, while it has been a few months already since this wedding, I have kept in touch in Rizza and Sasan and have actually explored working together with their products in the new designs of my wedding album. I just love it when connections go beyond just the wedding day and they turn into rich and memorable life experiences for all of us – from one special thing to another. :) Enjoy the photos :)
