Have a Little Faith – Photography by Mireille Aikman

Kanika + Peter had faith in their love from the start. The couple met at work where their company did not support office love affairs. It didn’t take long to choose their love and leave the company. Smart decision on their part, considering their love affair eventually led to a beautiful marriage.

The very talented Mireille Aikman of Admiron Photography in Amsterdam, Netherlands, had the opportunity to shoot Kanika + Peter’s wedding on the rocks of Sorrento on the Amalfi Coast. Being from the Netherlands, this was the perfect destination wedding for the couple and they had guests flying in from all over the world, including the Netherlands, Australia, Italy, Norway, India and the United States, for a multi-day celebration.

When the couple woke up on their wedding day, rain was pouring down and more was in the forecast. But Mireille says that both Kanika + Peter were incredibly calm, relaxed and happy. Does a little rain matter when you’re in love, after all? And all the faith they had in the day paid off when, right before the ceremony, the rain stopped and the sun came out.

Mireille Aikman’s photos capture the love between Kanika + Peter perfectly. The looks they give each other throughout the wedding speak volumes about their feelings for one another and their somewhat goofy antics show that they share absolutely everything with each other. Of course, the Sorrento scenery is absolutely stunning, but I had my eyes so peeled to the lovely couple, I momentarily forgot where they were. Until I caught sight of the mountains and blue water again.

Kanika + Peter had faith in each other from the start, and it’s that faith that will likely carry them through their marriage. Not to mention both Kanika + Peter have fabulous examples to follow as both sets of their parents have been married for over 30 years (Peter’s for 50!). That combined with their genuine love and ability to be goofy together is going to make all the difference in the world.
