Mehndi Maharani 2015 Finalist: Divya Henna

October 26, 2015 Posted by: Jennifer 142 Comments

Today's second talented finalist, Prashanta of Divya Henna, hails from sunny Southern California, and her incredible submission photos will surely take your breath away! Here's what she had to say about her work:

"Mehndi is my life. It is an outlet for creative expression, as well as a tremendous privilege to be a part of one of the most important events in a family's life. I get to connect with the bride in a very special and intimate way, and to help carry on a traditional form of adornment, while adding a unique personal twist that allows her to make her own individual statement. I feel blessed beyond belief to be able to pursue my passion while simultaneously adding to the joy of the bride's special day!" - Prashanta
