The first (MIWPV) event was organised in 2015 to gather and cultivate a growing community of Indian wedding photographers and videographers with the aim to address the lack of learning and networking support for industry professionals.
It’s true that wedding photography and videography is a serious business. If a picture doesn’t tell a story, and it doesn’t take you back to that moment even after decades, it’s pointless. Varnam Malaysia would like to take this opportunity to thank all the photographers and videographers for dabbling with the pair ascertains “wedding pictures and films feel real,” so that the natural magic of a story is preserved.
Congratulations to all the winners and may your business grow in the years to come!
