Not a huge fan of tilts in general, but I do love that last one...

+1 on the tilt but bearable.

Great pictures. Now, I'm not an expert on cultures or anything but, from the looks of her outfit and henna tattoos, wasn't this a traditional Indian wedding? I know some Muslim weddings are very colorful as well so I could be mistaken.

Not to sound snarky, but is it not possible that it could have been both a Muslim and a traditional Indian wedding?

First up love the colors and the tilt works OK for me...Funny thing about the tilt i do it a lot
and get the same response but i like it and thats what you get with photography opinions and everyone has one....All due respect to all parties of course...
The traditional Indian wedding well that too is some what subjective after all 13.4% of the Indian population is Muslim and they have their own traditions..

I had the same idea. I've done a number of portraits of Indian Hindus in traditional garb, including some bridals. This bride seems rather "casual" in some ways than a traditional Muslim bride would be--exposed hair, for instance. And I've only seen the henna on Hindus, not Muslims.

But if she is an Indian Muslim, then that probably explains it...there may be a lot of cross-flow.

In Muslim tradition, the Muslim brides are given much importance as Muslim Groom. She is looking splendid in the last pic!!!!
