Everything We Wanted Seven Years Ago

Tessa + Prashant

Moments captured: getting ready, first look, ceremony, reception

Services provided: combo package of photography and videography

From capturing their secret proposal to witnessing their high-school-sweetheart story come full circle—this was a day for the books. 📸✨

Tessa and Prashant’s wedding wasn’t just a ceremony; it was a celebration of a "united team" seven years in the making. It’s hard to believe it all started back in Year 7 with Prashant as the "loser kid" playing tag and eventually blossoms during a media studies video project. 🎥💍

One of the highlights for us at Eric G Studios was documenting the beautiful blend of cultures and the deep roots of family. Seeing Prashant’s Nani and Nana alongside Tessa’s Gran and Granddad reminded us that weddings are truly about the "squad" that gets you to the finish line. 🇳🇿🇮🇳

The reception was pure energy! From a hilarious shoe game (turns out Tessa might be the more patient one! 😉) to a blindfold hand-identification game, the laughter never stopped. And that choreographed dance? Absolutely electric. 💃🕺

Tessa and Prashant, thank you for letting us capture your "safe haven." You may not have had everything you wanted seven years ago, but standing there as husband and wife, you have everything you ever dreamed of.

Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Prasad! 🥂
