Okinawa Wedding Photographers
On my last trip to Okinawa I visited the relatively new Chura-Sun beach (美らSUNビーチ) right to the south of Naha Airport and saw this group of wedding photographers doing their best to capture a young couple in the classic “groom getting blown away”. If you have ever been to a wedding in Okinawa, you know this pose! I was there in the winter and the beach was quite deserted, not least due to the cold winds. Even Okinawa gets chilly in the winter. I always thought of Okinawa as Japan’s own paradise. It is quite expensive to go there from the mainland but I am sure the locals are happy to keep it that way. I wouldn’t mind spending a few months there in spring or summer!

I thought of Japan but actually I think I might go with the English country side. I like how the English have a formal wedding breakfast which really appealed to me. Though I always keep Japan in the back of my mind if England doesn’t work out.

I don’t think I have ever heard of someone picking a country for their wedding based on breakfast! Well done! (^-^)

Have been working as a wedding photographer here in Okinawa for a few years, it is a great way to make a living, and being one of the few bilingual full time photographers, each day throws something a little different at me…thanks for putting a little spotlight on what we do down here.

It is always cool to see the other side of the camera isn’t it? I love your unbiased composition!

Thank you! I shoot what I see and I (hardly ever) crop photos afterwards. I did cheat a little though, as I think this is shot with a cheap plastic zoom lens! (^-^;) Normally I only use prime lenses…
