About Me
I offer fully personalized vacation, surprise proposal and family photography across Tokyo and Jpan. As a Tokyo resident since 2008, I take you beyond the postcard spots to the hidden corners only locals know, all beautifully documented in the moment.
My style is "plandid" — a mix of planned and natural, so there's no need to worry about stiff, awkward posing. I want you to actually enjoy the shoot and go home with photographs that feel like real memories, not staged souvenirs.
One of Tokyo’s most trusted proposal photographers, with several hundred surprise proposals captured.
Available across Japan for extended sessions or via trusted local partners—Mount Fuji (Kawaguchiko, Hakone), Hokkaido (Sapporo, Furano), Karuizawa, Shirakawa-go, Kyoto, Kyushu (Yufuin, Beppu, Fukuoka), Okinawa and more.
Expert in urban street, night and cyberpunk photography.

PORTFOLIO
From iconic landmarks to hidden backstreets, your story will shine through day & night.
Why Work with me
Fully Personalized
My session is not a package tour where every client gets the same photos at the same spots. Every photoshoot is fully personalized to your story and requirements. I handle all inquiries personally and edit each image myself to ensure consistency, authenticity, and a cinematic style that reflects my vision unlike booking platforms or photographers who rely on the same presets.

PeaCE OF MIND
Coming from a corporate background, I bring that same level of professionalism to every session. You can expect timely replies from inquiry to delivery, and a photographer who shows up as scheduled. I haven't missed a single appointment in 10+ years. Retainer payments are processed securely through Square.

Quick Turnaround
Take home your Tokyo vacation photos while you’re still in Japan! By limiting the number of daily bookings, I ensure a fast turnaround—typically within 24–72 hours after your session (T&Cs apply). For a surprise proposal, a few teasers will be delivered on the same day after the shoot, so that you can start sharing right away.
Sessions start from US$250 in central Tokyo
