noreply@blogger.com (Jake Odening) — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 04:44:00 +0000

sorry for the megaton blast of images...but Evan and Bree were so fun that i couldn't help share the joy with everyone.

My good friend Steven Hasegawa showed up with his ability to make others laugh on que came in very handy.

I love it when a bride and groom can't take their eyes off each other.

My fiancee is a great second shooter, i love it when she gets candid details like this one.

They got ready at the Hotel Cheval, the ceremony was held in the park and the reception as at the Park Ballroom. I had so much fun. Thanks guys!

Matt + Tamiko: Yosemite

noreply@blogger.com (Jake Odening) — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 19:02:00 +0000

Round Two for Matt and Tamiko. Matt oringally wanted their casual portraits in Yosemite but since he was going to MIT in boston (YIKES!) and he couldn't build a time warp machine fast enough to warp to yosemite for an afternoon, we had to wait until he could come to california the conventional way...via the friendly sky's aboard a jet liner. Needless to say, it was amazing. Also it was Tamiko's first time to yosemite and she was amazed. We shot in the valley and then ended at Glacier point. It was fun
