Guwahati is a photographers’ paradise with parks, hills, and lakes all around. The tiny river island of Umananda, the ancient mythological marvel Kamakhya temple, and the mighty river – the Brahmaputra – all are unique to this North-Eastern state capital, providing enough opportunities for photography enthusiasts to capture some award-winning visuals.
However, when it comes to pre-wedding photoshoots, when a couple is expected to get cozy, these usually crowded places are far from ideal since they can draw a lot of unnecessary attention. Hence, a resort is the best bet for soon-to-be-wed couples and pre-wedding photographers alike.
