I recently had the pleasure of photographing an amazing couple photoshoot at Osaka Castle Park during one of the most beautiful autumn seasons. At this time of year, the ginkgo leaves turn a stunning golden yellow, creating a perfect backdrop for romantic photos. We took many wonderful photos with Osaka Castle in the background as well as among the colorful autumn trees.

From the moment we met at the meeting point, they greeted me with warm smiles, and throughout the entire shoot, we laughed and talked a lot together. Their personalities were incredibly bright, positive, and full of joy, and it was clear that they were truly enjoying the photoshoot. Spending time with them felt very comfortable, almost like hanging out with close friends rather than working.

I suggested several photo spots around Osaka Castle Park, and they were happy to try every location. We ended up shooting in multiple areas, and they were genuinely excited about the photos taken at each spot. Because we were so engaged in conversation and enjoying the moment, the one hour session passed incredibly quickly.

I truly loved their smiles and personalities, and I sincerely hope to meet them again someday. Thank you so much for choosing me from so many photographers and for sharing such a wonderful time together. Please come visit Japan again, and I look forward to seeing you next time.

I recently had the pleasure of photographing a truly wonderful couple during their proposal photoshoot at Osaka Castle Park. They were incredibly friendly, kind, and warm hearted, and from the very beginning, it honestly felt like I had made new friends. Actually, by the end of the shoot, we really did become friends.

The proposal plan that he and I prepared together went very smoothly, and her reaction was full of surprise and happiness when he proposed. I was able to capture that beautiful moment with my camera, and they were so happy when they saw the photos afterward. Being able to preserve such an important and emotional moment is always a special part of proposal photography for me.

After the proposal, I guided them to several spots around Osaka Castle Park for more photos. While walking, during the shoot, and even while showing them the photos on my camera, they kept telling me how much they were enjoying the experience. Their smiles were absolutely wonderful, which naturally helped create many beautiful images. On top of that, seeing how happy they were made me feel even more positive and motivated while photographing them.

We had our shoot in the late afternoon, and the light was especially soft and beautiful. It really enhanced their natural beauty and created a very romantic atmosphere around the park.

Toward the end of the session, while I was explaining the photo delivery process, we found ourselves talking about how we were already looking forward to meeting again in the future. That is how meaningful and enjoyable this one hour photoshoot felt for all of us. Thank you so much for choosing me as your photographer for such an important proposal moment. I was truly happy to meet you and photograph your special day. Please come visit Japan again, and I hope we can meet again someday!

I had the pleasure of photographing a truly wonderful couple’s proposal at Osaka Castle Park in Japan.

We carefully planned their proposal photo shoot at Osaka Castle Park and decided to meet early in the morning to avoid the crowds. On the day of the shoot, it happened to be raining. Thankfully, it was not heavy rain, so we decided to go ahead with the session as planned.

As part of the surprise proposal setup, I approached them pretending to be a tourist. The groom-to-be greeted me very naturally, which made it easy for me to approach them and capture the proposal smoothly. Thanks to his calm and natural attitude, everything went perfectly.

The proposal completely surprised her. She clearly did not expect it at all, and her reaction was full of genuine joy and emotion. It was such a beautiful moment to witness and photograph.

I truly loved their personalities. They were bright, kind, polite, and genuinely enjoyed the photo session, which made me very happy as a photographer. One of the most surprising things for me was that he spoke Japanese very well. Even though he had never studied Japanese in Japan, he could communicate with me comfortably. Because of that, we quickly felt relaxed around each other and became friendly almost immediately.

Even with the rain, we shared ideas together and captured many beautiful engagement photos. I am so glad we decided to go ahead with the shoot. It was an unforgettable experience for me.

Please come back to Japan again someday. I was truly happy to meet you both and capture such a special moment. Congratulations on your engagement!!

I had the pleasure of photographing a truly wonderful couple during a night photoshoot in Osaka. I genuinely loved working with them, and throughout the session, we shared many conversations. They were both incredibly calm, kind, and warm, and being with them made the entire shoot feel comfortable and natural.

My English is not perfect, and there were moments when I couldn’t fully express what I wanted to say. Even so, they listened patiently and tried to understand my intentions, which made our communication feel very smooth and respectful. Their kindness allowed me to relax and focus on capturing authentic moments.

They welcomed all of my posing ideas and location suggestions with smiles and openness, showing so much consideration and positivity throughout the shoot. Because of their gentle and thoughtful attitude, I was able to photograph them in a very relaxed state.

The final photos turned out beautifully, and I was truly happy to hear that they loved the images. Thank you so much for choosing me as your photographer to capture such precious memories from your trip to Japan. I hope you will visit Osaka again someday.

A couple I photographed during their proposal session in Arashiyama returned to Japan and booked another photoshoot with me in Osaka. Their proposal shoot in Kyoto had left such a strong impression on me because we had such a genuinely fun time together. Since then, we had stayed connected on Instagram, so it wasn’t as if we lost touch completely. Still, when they reached out again to book another session during their trip to Japan, I was truly excited and felt incredibly grateful. I had been looking forward to seeing them even before the shoot day arrived.

When we finally reunited at our meeting spot, it felt as if no time had passed at all. They were exactly the same warm, bright, and cheerful couple I remembered from our first photoshoot in Arashiyama. I had already selected several photo locations in Osaka based on their preferences, and I took them around while keeping their requested poses in mind. Since it was a busy time of day, some spots were a bit challenging because of the crowds, but creating photos together in real time made the whole process even more enjoyable.

Every time I showed them the images on my camera, they reacted with such joy that it made me genuinely happy to be photographing them again. Moments like these remind me how meaningful this job is. When couples I photographed years ago return to Japan and choose me again as their photographer, I feel deeply honored and grateful beyond words.

I hope I can visit Singapore someday and reunite with them again. It was truly wonderful seeing them, and I’m already looking forward to the next time they visit Japan.

I recently photographed a beautiful couple for their maternity photoshoot at Osaka Castle Park. It had been raining earlier that day, so I was a little worried. But right when our session started, the rain stopped completely. The air felt fresh and clear after the rain, and with almost no one around, it turned into the perfect setting for a relaxed and intimate photoshoot.

They brought an ultrasound photo of their baby, so we captured some lovely moments with the picture placed gently on the mother’s belly. I also photographed her softly touching her stomach, and the two of them sharing quiet, heartfelt moments together. They were incredibly calm, kind and gentle, and as I photographed them, I couldn’t help but feel they will be wonderful parents.

Every location I guided them to became one of their favorites, and they handled every posing idea I suggested beautifully. A new life coming into the world is always something to celebrate, and I truly hope their baby arrives safely and healthy. I also hope they return to Japan one day with their child.
Thank you both for such a wonderful and warm session. I really enjoyed it.

I had an amazing night photoshoot with a wonderful couple in Osaka. From our initial messages, I could tell they were very friendly and enthusiastic about Japanese culture. They even shared detailed ideas of the types of photos they wanted beforehand, which helped me plan the perfect shooting route for them.

The couple was exactly as I imagined—bright, cheerful, and fun to work with. We started our session at a capsule toy shop, one of their requests. I captured them choosing toys and walking around the shop, enjoying the vibrant atmosphere. I also found a Dragon Ball capsule toy I had been wanting, and they were genuinely excited with me, treating me like a friend.

After that, we explored many locations filled with neon lights and hidden streets that only locals know. Thanks to their willingness to walk around for a long time, we were able to capture so many great shots. I truly enjoyed photographing this couple, and I absolutely love their smiles.

I hope they visit Japan again soon—I would love to shoot with them again!
