Wow

September 30th, 2008

Sachi and I just got our wedding photos from our guy in Japan, and we are very, very impressed. He worked for about six hours at the wedding all told, and his fees were very reasonable. He was unobtrusive, mostly in the background, and I was not aware of him most of the time.

We just got the photos–express-mailed to us just three days after the wedding. In that time, he sorted them into groups, saved them onto 4 DVD-Rs, and printed contact sheets, including them in clear-plastic binder sleeves. And the images–all 435 of them at 21 megapixels–were very well-taken. He covered everything, getting good photos of everyone, with some really great shots in there.

We are really very, very pleased. It’ll take a while to get through all of these, and we’ll have to resize all of them (they average at about 15 MB each), but we could not have asked for better. This is a guy who used to work for my school, taking photos of events there. If you need photos taken in the Tokyo area, you should call this guy. His name is Yuichi Yoshitomi, and his business number is 042-332-5771. If you want his email address or other business information, leave a comment and an address I can reach you at.

Here are a few sample images from the first disc, with 1200-pixel-or-better blow-ups on click:
