Nestled among the greenery of its forests and waterfalls a beautiful country which has become the home to Karan and Sayali, New Zealand a country rich in culture, scenery, history, rolling hills of soft earth with surreal landscapes is where I found myself one February morning living a dream turned into reality. Was this really happening? I had to pinch myself just to make sure what I my eyes were entertained with was real, I did not want to sleep for I only had one day to capture Karan and Sayali's love story. But how did I find myself in a country where dreams are made of? It all happened by luck, chance and destiny all rolled into one. One lead led to the next and before you knew it I was booking my flight to Auckland to meet my editor and his fiancee Sayali. 

The night had come, previously I had caught my flight from Adelaide, Australia into Auckland airport. Upon arrival I found myself surrounded by two people souls who I had met in person for the first time, I was great with warm hugs, smiles and flowers! The delight of meeting my new friends left me in a happy buzz, having have had hardly any sleep my excitement became my drug to keep me awake and alert. People ask me many times how is that I have so much energy? It runs in my veins like a drug, I call it passion. My passion is so strong that it gives me strength and endurance to overcome fatigue. But here I was fighting fatigue led by passion. Passion to know that I would be capturing another love story, one across the world and one I was so eager and ready to photograph.
