If you’re looking for pre wedding photos at Bendooley Estate that feel more like a weekend retreat, Priya and Umang’s session had it all. Calm energy, excellent wine and great chat. Just two wholesome souls who smile like they mean it, and they always mean it.
Their smiles aren’t just polite. They’re full body events. When Priya smiles, the weather improves. Umang matches her with quiet charm that feels suspiciously zen. You get the sense they meditate. Or at least nap well.
I’ve bumped into Priya at countless weddings. She was affectionately known as the “forever bridesmaid.” Not because she wasn’t the marrying type – more because she was always around, looking perfect, being helpful, and somehow never sweating in silk.
Naturally, I was excited for this shoot. But I didn’t expect it to double as a life reset. We drank wine, discussed life, and ate harvest peas like they were gourmet. It was the most soul filling pre-wedding shoot of 2024
Moreover, the setting at Bendooley Estate just did its thing. No filters needed. Good light, moody trees, and a wine cellar I almost moved into. As far as pre wedding photos at Bendooley Estate go, this one set the gold standard—no props, just presence.
In conclusion, it wasn’t really a shoot. It was an afternoon of good humans doing very little but making it look excellent. Priya and Umang, thank you for proving that chill is a vibe worth capturing. And thank you for not judging how many snacks I ate between takes.
