Garden of the Gods Anniversary Photoshoot: Yousuf & Tanisha’s Bollywood-Inspired Love Story

Love is a beautiful journey, and what better way to celebrate it than with a photoshoot in one of Colorado’s most breathtaking locations? I recently had the joy of photographing Yousuf and Tanisha as they celebrated their third anniversary with a Garden of the Gods anniversary photoshoot—a day filled with laughter, romance, and cinematic flair.

Tanisha, inspired by her favorite Bollywood movies, wore a vibrant red sari that shimmered against the sunlit rocks. As their photographer, I (Bobak Radbin) had the privilege of capturing their radiant connection and the timeless beauty of this unforgettable celebration.
