The Venugopal Family





The Venugopal family is one of the nicest, most genuine and down to earth families I've ever met. Anu is so soothing and kind, taking her children all over to different schools that are the best fit for them, and offering them a trip to a restaurant that serves their favorite foods when the girls feel hungry during our photo shoot. Venu is a ridiculously successful businessman, having offices all over the world, yet he was totally willing to roll around on the grass at the JW Marriott and have a great time with his family, which was really cool. Both the girls are just so beautiful! I have known them since Pooja was 5 and Aarti was 11, and now at 11 and 16, the Venugopal girls have just blossomed and were so much fun and amazing...you might recognize Aarti from my website, wearing traditional Indian dress...I know that the shot was taken a long time ago, but I can't help it...I have to keep it!
This shoot, we had a goal in mind: a project to go with the Feng Shui influence that Anu is decorating in. She told me that they could only have pictures of the two of them in their room, so we got to take a LOT of pictures of just the two of them, which is so rare these days. They are so obviously in love...the tender way Venu looked at Anu made me want to go have my pictures taken with my hubby to see if he looks that way at me! Not to mention Anu's mile long legs! So beautiful, all of them! It was a great day!
