Brenda + Tommy Part 2::Culture

So after the first day being a Chinese wedding, the second day was a Mien wedding. If you don't know what Mien is they are similar to the Hmong in that they are ethnic minorities originally from Southern China but due to religious persecution they took refuge in the hills of northern Laos.

Being that I was dressed in the traditional Mien garb myself a little under 5 years ago I was excited to shoot the wedding and to share the cultural and tradition of the Mien people.

Much kudos goes to Brenda and Tommy. After a twenty hour first wedding day they were able to look great and share the second wedding with all their loved ones.
