Satkar and Astha’s Glendale, Arizona Engagement Session

October 13, 2016

bLOG CATEGORIEs + Search

Both born and raised in Kathmandu, Nepal, Satkar and Astha were meant to be.  They met while in college in Nepal, and after immigrating to the US and settling in the Phoenix area, they sealed their commitment to each other earlier this year with their engagement.  Their love is one that spanned countries, and now here in the US they will be surrounded by friends and family from afar, for their wedding later this year.  What a pleasure to meet them and photograph their engagement portraits as they start this new branch on their family tree.

Photographed at the historic Manistee Ranch in Glendale, Arizona.

BEHIND THE LENS

ABOUT yasmin

I believe in real moments and chasing sunsets. In the kinds of images that remind you of the joy that can be found in the simplest of moments.

I believe in creating images that demand to be printed—framed in fine art materials and displayed as the heirlooms they're meant to become. My approach is both editorial and intimate, capturing not just faces but the emotional landscape of your life. Each portrait is thoughtfully composed to reveal your authentic story while honoring the beauty of the world around you. Your journey is extraordinary and entirely your own, and I'm here to preserve it with the artistry it deserves.
