These were taken at the Meiji Shrine Tokyo where Shinto wedding ceremonies are held. Photographers may notice the camera I was using and still have. Its amazing what 12 megapixels can achieve, and with some heavy cropping, as you can see with the before and after post processing shots.

Beautiful images. I love how you’ve captured these intensely personal moments despite the very public view.
Thanks Jenny. If I get back to Tokyo I will spend a weekend at that shrine to capture more moments.
My favourite photo of all time is the back of the geisha’s head. I love the one in the surgery of the back of the woman’s head too.
Thanks Eve. I was back a the shrine 2 months ago but couldn’t repeat the shot. Too many tourists (including me) and very short wedding ceremonies.
