Currently, Islamabad is a city shrouded by political unrest and security lockdowns due to PTI protests.
Khola and Qasim, a newlywed couple, chose the fortified streets of the federal capital as the backdrop for their wedding photos.
Clad in elegant silver-toned outfits, Khola in a shimmery gown, and Qasim in a dapper suit, the duo posed against a line of containers placed to block roads amid ongoing political protests.
