SHANNON + SEEMA | INDIAN LESBIAN WEDDING | LOS ANGELES, CA.

SHANNON + SEEMA | INDIAN LESBIAN WEDDING | LOS ANGELES, CA.

I have been anticipating this wedding for years now! Shannon and Seema are special to me and I am honored that they chose me to be their wedding photographer. I flew into Los Angeles a few hours before the wedding festivities began. I was greeted by a house full of friends, family and a lot of laughter. It was going to be an exciting day. Beautiful Indian culture, stunning brides & style for miles! Couldn’t ask for more. I have photographed Indian weddings before and I have photographed gay and lesbian weddings before, but never have I ever shot an Indian lesbian wedding. WOW. My heart! There was so much love that consumed the SmogShoppe that evening. Friends and family came pouring in with smiles, hugs and tears… these two are clearly loved and in love. I am writing this blog a month after the wedding and I am proud to say that so much progress has been made in our country with the Supreme Court striking down DOMA (Defense of Marriage Act) and Prop 8 in California! Love wins. ALWAYS. Congrats Shannon & Seema. Love you guys! UPDATE: For every LGBT wedding I book in 2014 I have decided to donate a portion to the Trevor Project. READ MORE HERE! PROMOTE LOVE and get involved in something bigger than yourself.

    Only one suggestion: i think it should be titled Beautiful Love Marriage, not Indian Lesbian wedding. I say this only because it should be the love that draws comment. What your orientation is that led you to this beautiful moment should be irrelevant. Also it reads as an oddity and shouldn’t be so. Thanks for sharing your special moments. Incredibly moving to see so much honest love.

    When my Indian girlfriend married a white man in the 90’s that was controversial. I’m glad we have progressed years later and can celebrate ALL love within ALL race lines, and same sex lines. Congrats Shannon and Seema! Phenomenal pictures that warm my heart. May u share a long and happy life with love being your center for all time.

    I work in the industry and I hardly EVER see couples as blissful and in love as this. So happy to see this, it makes me feel so excited about the work I am in. Everybody deserves to celebrate the love they have. Equality for all.

Not leaving any specific comment for your photography as that indeed beautiful and I would been more than honoured if I was appointed in your place as the wedding-photojournalist. This is again a wonderful thing I have seen.

    This brought tears to my eyes. This is so beautiful. I am an Indian lesbian and have always dreamed of having the same kind of wedding. Everything that happened in this wedding has been exactly what I have dreamed to happen in my wedding. Especially, the part where I marry a woman out of my culture. After seeing this I can say that my dream one day will surely come true. Thank you Seema and Shannon for keeping mine and probably millions of other girls dreams alive, especially, those who wish to marry a woman out of their culture. I wish both of you all the happiness and luck in this new journey of yours. 🙂

    It is amazing to see this. I hope the world slowly broadens its vision and accept such weddings with arms wide open. Hats off to the Indian parents of Seema. In india parents still freak out at the idea of mere inter-religion marriage while Seema’s parents accepter her sexuality and allowed her to choose a soulmate. This is amazing and beautiful. God bless the couple!

I am a young Indian girl and know how strict Indian parents can be and like someone mentioned in a previous comment, i am so glad to see that the Indian parents are so open and accepting of these beautiful couple. Congrats to both of you beautiful ladies I wish I was a friend of yours because it would have been an honor to be a part of this wedding. Hats off to the photographer–these photos were PERFECT. i will 100% keep your contact information because you are definitely photographing my wedding!!

    This is beautiful. I’ve wanted a big, traditional Indian wedding since I was a little girl, and once I realized my sexuality, letting that wedding dream go was one of the saddest things. Your wedding is proof that it doesn’t have to be that way. What an amazing hybrid of cultures, traditions and style to celebrate your special day! I’m so impressed; both at how you incorporated an american and indian wedding into one, and that you had the balls to do it! I hope you two have a long, happy life together! xoxo

    This is beautiful beyond words. I am crying because it feels like i just saw a slideshow of my most heart wrenching dream come true! Shannon & Seema… Congrats to you both from the bottom of my soul! I am a complete stranger that is in awe of the love you have for one another and the commitment you’ve decided to make to each other. You are both beautiful, brave and blessed. I wish you both a lifetime of joy! I feel so goddamn fortunate and grateful to have stumbled upon this page today. Steph, you are an amazing photographer! You can feeel the love emanating from each shot.
    Is there any way to get in touch with the brides? I’m an Indian lesbian living in a country where homosexuality is criminalized. I came out recently to my parents only to be told that I “must” get married to a boy… so i almost gave up on my own happiness. After seeing this, I realize just how much it’s worth. I’m working on a novel actually and I’m collecting stories of Indian lesbians like myself because i think it has the power to dramatically impact the live of an Indian girl somewhere in the world that is too afraid to follow her heart. I would love to hear Shannon and Seema’s story.
    you can email me at: dolsz35@hotmail.com
    Again, thank you for this. Thank you!

But, as an Indian woman this made my heart so so happy. I loved how they carried out all the little traditions. I loved that they fed each other a cupcake (for shannon) and a laddoo (for seema). They thought of it all…Kudos and God bless you both. And, yeah to to all supportive family members on both sides who truly reveled in the celebration.

    This made me cry, I’m a lesbian too and i grew up in a hindu family so this is the norm and i always dreamed of a hindu wedding for my partner and I but pundits in New York would never do this for homosexual couples. so seeing this possible is a blessing for me and hope that one day i can share this ceremony of intimacy and trust with my loved one. although i would not wear a sari but a doti instead. saris are not my thing. but this is amazing and congrats for the marriage.

    @Rishabh: Hinduism does not say anything against homosexuality, and any homophobia that exists in Indian society is cultural and relatively new (slowly inculcated over 200 years). A lot of Hindu royals practiced it openly in the past, and Hinduism has a lot of LGBT themes in its mythology.

    Seeing these pictures makes me so happy! Steph Grant you are a very talented photographer and you have captured the love and happiness better than anything I’ve ever seen! I may get your for my wedding! (Let me find a man first.) The brides are incredibly stunning, and Seema especially seems to have such incredibly vibrant energy – what a doll!

    Were the guests crying? It looked like that in a couple pictures.

    Congratulations to the new couple and may they have a long, prosperous, healthy and happy life together. This wedding gives me hope for our society.

    These photos have me bawling tears of hope and joy. My girlfriend Tiffany and I have been together 7yrs and always dreamt of a wedding like this – one incorporating tradition, accomodating two beautiful brides, surrounded by friends and family. I have never been able to envision something this perfect, however. We had even spoken about eloping, but this gives me renewed hope that weddings ARE for everyone – straight or gay – and they can be traditional!
    THANK YOU.
