I joined forum few months ago. I am getting married in few months in Toronto and have querry for photoshoot on wedding day before Nikkah.
To me, I dont feel there is anything wrong abt about it because we usually do have e-shoot b4 wedding. My few relatives think it is not wise to do before nikkah. I dont want to do couple poes but some decent ones :).
My nikkah will b after magrib on barat day and I want to take pictures in daylight before magrib in garden area of hotel
Please share your views or experiences If it will be a huggeeeeee problem?
It varies family to family. It mainly depends how religious you are. In my family this is a huge no no as you are not married and he is not your Mahram. It's a sin for him to touch you even if you are planning on getting married in the next 24 hours. But some of my cousin's family is not as religious and she had her photoshoot before nikkah and they were fine with it. It just depends and no one here can tell you what to do as it all comes down to you and your family's religious views
Oh and yah my immediate family doesn't do eshoots unless it's going to be a long term nikkah and the time between nikkah and Rukhsati will be treated like an engagement. But if you have done an eshoot and everyone was one with it then I don't see why a photoshoot before nikkah should be an issue...
I had a separate day for nikkah which was done in the masjid in the morning.Then had a relaxed photoshoot as no one could object. Mehndi and wedding functions came days later.
No, we have not done e-shoot. Only 1 day event that will be wedding day.
Oh kk sorry I thought you had done eshoot. Well again then it just comes down to how religious you are... You said most people do eshoot but that's not always the case. My community is very strict and no one here does any type of photoshoot before nikkah. But it it's done in your community and family then go for it
E-shoot is engagement shoot, is 2-3 hours shoot of a couple by professional photographer after engagement and can be use as an opportunity to show off your engagement ring. (joking :D )
It can b done on different locations. Sometimes complementary on your wedding photography package.
Stop asking relatives/other people what their opinion is on this.
If you, your fiancé, your mom/dad, and your fiancé's mom/dad are ok with the photoshoot in daylight, then go ahead and do it.
This!!!
Besides, no one does those titanic poses anymore! Usually, people think of a fun theme or poses or whatever. Not for religious reasons, but I think those touchy-feely poses for everyone to see is so awkward and tacky. I saw this couple do something really fun where the guy dressed up as a gujjar and the girl as a gaon ki larki and they both did some maula jutt poses in a park setting. Looked so colourful and funny. Loved it!
