Workflows with Charmi Patel-Peña

We speak with wedding photographer, Charmi Pena about the workflows in her photography business.

Charmi Patel-Peña is a wedding photographer based in New Jersey. Living with her husband Patrick and two kids. The weddings Charmi photographs are paced quickly and are full of organized chaos - just like her mind, but they also force her to slow down.

As a fan of power tools, she likes to do home improvements in her spare time. She is also a big fan of her mom’s pani puri and recommends everyone finds a place to try this traditional Indian street food snack.

Charmi is the first Asian American, female, photographer to be sponsored by a leading camera manufacturer - Nikon. She is also one of the newest Talents here at Imagen, offering her incredible editing style for anyone to try.
