Yusra & Rahil's Baraat | Fort Gordon & Augusta Marriott | Augusta Pakistani Wedding Photography
Continuing this blast from the past, and finally blogging all of the photographs from Yusra and Rahil’s wedding from Summer 2012! For the Baraat night we stayed over in Augusta as the events were back at Fort Gordon with the post-wedding honeymoon suite at the Augusta Marriott where we took a few additional bride and groom portraits. The wedding day started with us seeing Yusra put the finishing touches on her makeup, while Rahil and his family put on his Sherwani downstairs at the hotel. From there the families headed over to Fort Gordon where the Baraat began!

























Downstairs to where the groom and his family were ready to begin!





















We ran back upstairs to see Yusra’s final touches before heading over to Fort Gordon!

Upon arriving at the Augusta Marriott, we took these…
