More about Arif K....
What do you love about your job?
As a photographer, especially for weddings, I try to capture the whole story for the couple's special day. I take great pride in being able to capture genuine expressions and emotions during the course of the wedding. When I put together the album for the couple, this is where I feel my skills really shine. I love to assemble the album in a way that illustrates the story from start to finish including all the emotions that were captured. Observing the wedding couple view and re-live the events from the album is an amazing experience as I have the opportunity to once again see their genuine emotions come out whether it be tears of joy, bashful smile, or just pure love.
What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?
As mentioned above, I take pride in being able to capture the moment. My style is more a photo-journalistic / traditional one. Whether it's a bride wiping a tear or a hockey game where a player just took a hit, what i believe I do to make a photo special is simply being able to capture it at the right time.

A fun fact about this photographer
I started my professional business doing more editing than shooting as Photoshop was still quite advanced and expensive.
