I’ve had the pleasure of working with Samana on a film about her poetry, so we were excited when she asked us to capture her nikkah ceremony. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the nikkah was done at home in Kleinburg, Ontario, but it was still beautiful - lot of floral decorations, very intimate moments and you could really feel the magic. No matter the size or the people, weddings are still a special and emotional day, so we created this film to really capture the day from how we saw it.
