See the cute dog in the first picture? That’s Francois. A french bulldog with a fancy name and absolutely adorable owners. Francois was adopted a little over a year ago by Andrea and Dan. Frankly, if I were Francois, I wouldn’t want anyone else adopting me. He is so loved, cared and pampered. Can you expect less affection from two people already madly in love with each other?
Dan is into social work. Andrea works for a non-profit Pediatric AIDS Foundation. I am sure I do not have to write more for you to understand that this couple is all about giving.
I will spare the beginning of their love story until they get married on March 21st. Nothing short of a miracle. Nasim and I are honored to be chosen as their wedding photographers and are looking forward for the perfect day! 21st of March is special. It is the day when day and night are equal in length. According to the Zoroastrian Calendar, it is the first day of Spring and the beginning of a New Year. Coincidence? Let’s say Andrea and Dan are a match made in heaven. Let 21st of March, the first day of spring be a symbolic meaning of their new life as a husband and wife.
We met for the engagement session at a park right next to their new home. While it was a little chilly, both Andrea and Dan were filled with energy. Oh, and Francois was über-cooperative. Isn’t he adorable?
Love is in the air!
I really want to sing a nice romantic song looking at these images :)
So much tenderness in their eyes. A couple can only wish for such love.
Why, yes! Hello there Francois!
Andrea you are BEAUTIFUL!
One of my favorite images from the day. Dan looks so content, so in peace.
We had a little fun by on old mansion turned into a game lounge.
I will end with this photo of the two sweethearts and their dog. See you both in a couple of weeks :)

Congratulations on their wedding and to you guys for getting the opportunity to photograph them. Yes, the dog is adorable and was giving quite a pose to be photographed :-). Seems like both of you are Uzbek; Uzbekistan is a beautiful country of whatever I have seen in pictures and documentaries. So, it would be great if you two start writing something about your country, culture and also post photos :-).
KL, thank you for stopping by and dropping a comment!
I keep telling my wife that we need to start writing about Uzbekistan. The problem is that we are currently unable to travel back and forth and take lots of pictures. Hopefully we will do that in the future :)
As for now, my wife posts some recipes of Uzbek food on her recipes page – please check it out and try some of our food – I am sure that you will love it! If you cannot make it yourself, come to Colorado and we will be more than glad to host you here and serve you the traditional Uzbek cuisine :)
