Gujarati Wedding
After nearly 1 year from my India trip, I’ve finally compiled the photos into a wedding story. You might have seen some of these photos before, but now they’re all presented together in a story.
Traditionally, Indian weddings are elaborate celebrations filled with rituals and customs dating back thousands of years. Weddings are usually between arranged couples, or those who have been partnered together by the bride and groom’s families for financial gain and family partnership. The marriage between Suketu Soni and Divya Agarwal was a more modern love marriage. The ceremonies occurred between Jan. 3, 2008 and Jan. 5, 2008 in the state of Gujarat, in northwest India.

The Sky is Falling
In the past couple of days, there have been 3 major announcements in the newspaper industry.
- Gannett, the largest U.S. newspaper publisher, is laying off 10% of the company.
- The Tribune Company (owners of such papers as The Los Angeles Times and The Chicago Tribune) is undergoing “sharp cutbacks,” by “printing fewer papers and employing fewer journalists” across all 12 of their newspapers.
- Scripps announced the Rocky Mountain News (their flagship paper and a very strong visual paper) and their 50% stake in the Denver Newspaper Agency are both for sale.
According to the big-wigs, the lack of success with converting from print advertising to online advertising is the problem. Well fix it!
Baron Sekiya, a recently laid-off photojournalist, equates the newspaper industry’s problem with the recent auto industry problem.
If I owned a newspaper, I would…
…concentrate on telling compelling stories, and the bottom line would naturally follow.
