Henna & Zaffa

Henna, zaffa, and the wedding day.

Arab and Middle Eastern weddings are often several gatherings, not a single hour in a ballroom. Our coverage is built around that.

Traditional dress

The embroidered dress and veil often appear at the henna, and sometimes again on the wedding morning. We give it time: a slow walk, good light, and the detail of the embroidery.

Henna night photography

Henna is usually the night before, sometimes an afternoon of its own. The room is family. The pictures should feel unhurried: the dress, the trays, the people who have traveled. We stay for that gathering when it is part of your weekend, then come back for the wedding day.

Zaffa photography and film

The zaffa is the entrance. Drums, family in front, the couple coming into the hall. It moves fast, so photo and film move with it, then settle once the couple is in the room. If your entrance is quieter, we follow your plan. Every family’s order is different.

The rest of the day

The ceremony, family portraits, and the reception matter just as much. We’re based in South Florida and cover weddings in Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Palm Beach, Orlando, and Tampa, and across the country.
