Greetings,

Strap your seat belts on girls and boys, we have some really cool images for you all! We have returned once again to Yamashiro since Rachel and Ken’s wedding. Brittany and Jeff hosted their wedding at Yamashiro to match their Asian themed wedding. Although Brittany wore an elegant white wedding dress, all her bridesmaids wore traditional Japanese dresses.

The ladies started their morning at Renaissance Hotel in Hollywood, while the strapping young men got an old fashion shave at Sweeny Todd’s.

During the ceremony at Yamashiro, I got caught by one of their family photographers!

The view of the garden at Yamashiro was absolutely amazing. Of course, their first kiss as husband and wife was amazing too!

Oh my…

Make a wish!!!

The location, view, service, and food at Yamashiro was incredible! Thank you Brittany and Jeff for sharing your memories with us!

Hello peeps,

I photographed an intimate wedding with Gavin Holt at Yamashiro Restaurant in Hollywood, CA on May 24, 2008.

1999 N. Sycamore Avenue
Hollywood, CA 90068

Gavin and I have been friends for a while, but never had the opportunity to photograph together. Working with this guy was super chill.

In any event, the stars for the evening were Rachel and Ken. Both of them are from the Bay Area and found Yamashiro Restaurant to be the ideal place for them to have their wedding. Check out some of the pictures!

The awesome Yamashiro Restaurant in Hollywood!

These party favors were so cute! I love favors that I can eat CHOMP!

This is an image of Ken getting make-up sprayed onto his face. The coating was so light that I would not have even known had I seen it applied.

This was during Rachael and Ken’s ceremony at Yamashiro’s courtyard. It is a beautiful garden in the center of the restaurant with a pond full of colorful koi. The following image was taken with a remote camera that I hid behind some bushes.

The following are some relaxing portraits of Rachael and Ken.

I forgot to mention – Ken was trained in the Shaolin Temple. The opportunity begged me to do a “Furious Five” pose like Kung Fu Panda.

Isn’t the outside courtyard just breathtaking? Awesomeness!!!

Rachael and Ken being themselves ;D

I was so fortunate to sit in a table with only one other individual who eats sushi – Gavin. The rest of the guests did not even try it. More for us! Haha so delicious!

Just look at that view of Los Angeles at dusk! After the evening festivities died down, I took a respite and was in awe when gazing out at the metropolis.
