I was lucky enough to witness this beautiful bride getting ready for her photoshoot.
The handsome groom awaited patiently from afar, smiling gently.
There were at least 3 weddings that took place when I visited.

Taken with a 50D & 15-85. ( 1/100, f/5.6, 76 mm, ISO 250 )

I got some other shots using longer lens and I saw a bunch other tourists with long lenses.
I wonder if the newly wed couples feel annoyed or overjoyed from all the tourists taking pictures of their ceremony.

Overjoyed may be stretching it. Tolerated might be closer. Did you see the part where they get married by a foreigner who is dressed like a priest but actually isn`t one? I have friends who do that on weekends here...they`re part time fathers.

:) yeah, I thought so too. Our tour guide seemed to think differently though.

OH...you were with a Japanese? That helps. When I`m with my wife there`s no trouble...when I`m alone I have had staff literally flee from me in shops. This part of Japan is modern yet still feudal in some ways.
