April 15th, 2012, Jen and Tom’s Engagement

Posted in Ayano Hisa, Wedding and Engagement Photography

I have known Jen for about 6 years now. She is pretty and seems to be calm and kind of a shy girl at first sight, but guess what, she is a comedian/actress/writer/uke player, multi-talented super woman! (Check her out on JEN’S WEBSITE) The photo shoot was at Brooklyn Botanical Garden with beautiful spring flowers and trees. Cherry blossoms were blooming and a lot of people were there to see them. I met Tom for the first time on the day of the photo shoot. He seems to be kind of a shy gentleman, too, at first sight, but what shocked me the most was he is as brave (I don’t know if this is the right word…) as Jen in front of the camera! I was like “Tom, really? You, too?” Anyway, the photo shoot was really fun. I can’t imagine how fun their wedding will be! Congratulations, Jen and Tom!

February 25th, 2012, Yoshiko and Mitsuru’s Wedding

Posted in Ayano Hisa, Wedding and Engagement Photography

Yoshiko and Mitsuru contacted me for their honeymoon photos in NYC. We got some nice photos and you can see them here. Yes, they had honeymoon before their wedding. They were very sweet people and I really enjoyed working for them. When I was in Japan for other gigs, they contacted me asking, “do you know any wedding photographer in Japan?” and I said, “me, me!” The wedding was at The Strings Hotel which is on higher floors of a building in Shinagawa, Tokyo, and has great views all around. The couple looked so cute together. Congratulations, Yoshiko and Mitsuru!!

November 20th, 2011, Lisa and Will’s Engagement

Posted in Ayano Hisa, Wedding and Engagement Photography

I did an engagement photo session with this nice young couple, Lisa and Will, at Highline Park, NYC. Lisa is a lighting creator for museums and Will is a doctor. We met at Highline park in the afternoon and shot the photos as we walk. Highline has various nice spots for photos, some colored trees, NYC street views, nice benches, etc. We moved to the Hudson River area to take some shots at the waterside. They were easy-going nice couple and we enjoyed the photo shoot. Congratulations, Lisa and Will!!

November 12th, 2011, Sara and Matt’s Wedding

Posted in Ayano Hisa, Wedding and Engagement Photography

Sara and Matt is finally married! I did their engagement photos in the last May. Since she told me she is getting married, I’ve been looking forward to photographing their wedding! The ceremony was in a beautiful St. Joseph’s Roman Catholic Church in Long Island. They used orange and yellow flowers to decorate the church and they looked great with Sara and Matt. The reception was at Smithtown Landing which was about 8 minutes from the church. The location was nice, the food was delicious and we had a lot of fun there. Congratulations, Sara and Matt!!

November 6th, 2011, Jodi and Jared’s Engagement

Posted in Uncategorized

Jodi contacted me at the beginning of August for an engagement photo shoot. Everytime we scheduled a photo shoot, the weather forecast was “rain”. After 5 or 6 times of re-scheduling, we finally did a photo shoot! It’s already November… And the day we picked for a Central Park engagement was the big NYC marathon day… Inside the park, although there were so many runners and their family and friends all over, the autumn leaves were beautiful. We had some difficulty walking on the street because a lot of streets were blocked, but overall it was a good photo shoot. Congratulations, Jodi and Jared!!
