			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">
<p style="text-align: left;">I first met Makiko through her mom.  Her mom used to be my oldest daughter&#8217;s daycare teacher.  I was excited when Makiko and her fiancee, Takatoshi, asked me to document their wedding day, both here in Japan and in Guam.  They are a wonderful couple and I can&#8217;t wait to shoot their wedding this weekend.  In keeping with the traditional Shinto custom, the poses you will see here are on the conservative side.  I hope to balance this with more fashionable poses when they do part two of their wedding in Guam next month.  Congratulations, Takatoshi and Makiko!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">There is a slide show at the end of this post and there is the option to view it in high-resolution (HQ).  Enjoy!!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is one long overdue engagement session of my colleague, Roger, and his wife (fiancee then), Yukiko.  Their engagement session was so much fun.  Like me, Roger is a big goofball which made for some great candids below.  Yukiko has a great laugh and smile which made me want to laugh and smile.  Did I mention that Roger is an avid photographer himself?  The guy was taking landscape shots during their session!  &#8220;Ummm&#8230;Roger, can we get back to taking your engagement pics?!?  Put your camera down.&#8221;  LOL!  Wedding pics coming soon.  In the meantime, enjoy these images.</p>
