Apatani Girls

I shot these photos of my friend and her cousin for a personal project: Apatani Girls
My friend Ampi is of Apatani tribe, one of the major tribes of Arunachal Pradesh. I have decided to cover Apatani rather than my own tribe- Galo because it was easier to. My friend's mom has good collection of Apatani ethnic dresses and ornaments so it was easier to cover it. 
I will explain each dresses and ornaments's name and purpose later since I don't have the Apatani encyclopedia with me nor my friend is available at present.

I have also added other Apatani Photos.
