Family photoshoot in Namba Osaka, Japan!!

Posted Posted in OSAKA

A very friendly family joined my photo shooting tour in Namba. Namba is the central area of Osaka city where many tourists stay. There are a lot of restaurants, souvenir shops, and it is easy to get to popular sightseeing spots like Universal Studios, Kaiyukan aquarium, and Osaka Castle Park from here.
The photo shoot was only one hour, so we didn’t have much time, but we enjoyed it together. I took many photos of the whole family, the sisters, the couple, and individual photos at different locations. They liked the places I took them to and were interested in Japanese culture. They especially liked the temple. I had a great time with them and hope to see them again soon!

Surprise proposal at Fushimi Inari shrine in Kyoto, Japan!!

Posted Posted in KYOTO

The most popular place in Kyoto is this Fushimi Inari shrine. They had wanted to visit this place early morning for long time. The guy made a plan of surprise proposal at this shrine and I captured the awesome moments!! I have taken surprise proposal many times but it was first time to do at Fushimi Inari shrine because it is always very crowded here and difficult to propose without people on background. But we visited early morning like 7am. Some tourists already sightseeing here but much less people than usual. I followed them from entrance of the shrine to many red gates area. He proposed her at beautiful spot and I took many great shots of his proposal.
After that, I took video as well. Please check the video too!!:)

Surprise proposal photo-shooting at Bamboo forest in Arashiyama, Kyoto!!!

Posted Posted in KYOTO

I met a great couple in Arashiyama Kyoto the middle of February. He and I made a plan of surprise proposal from January and he had an awesome idea. It is fortune cookie proposal that he made a ring into a fortune cookie. His girl friend would bite it and see the ring and then notice. I have never seen and heard this plan and was so excited to do that.
I went to Arashiyama around 7am. It was very early morning but there are almost empty. Only some local and tourist walked around there. He wanted to get photos without people in Bamboo forest. That’s why we made a plan to go early morning. I was following them as a normal tourist from entrance of bamboo forest and preparing for shooting. He asked me ‘Do you take our photos’ and this was a sign. She received the fortune cookies and found the ring. It made her super surprise and I captured the big moments. We walked around Arashiyama area after proposal and they were so friendly and happy couple. I was glad to see them and take their photos. I hope see you again in Japan or Singapore!! Thank you!!:)

Video shooting of surprise proposal in Kyoto, Japan!!

Posted Posted in KYOTO

I have started a VIDEO shooting finally!! I have prepared to do this for long time like practiced many times and learned how to edit video. This video shooting was amazing. I was so happy to help him for surprise proposal at Bamboo forest in Kyoto. His friends prepare some photos and board which is written ‘WILL YOU MARRY ME’ and some lights. They made a great place for proposal and we were waiting for the couple at the side of Bamboo forest.
I was taking video from when they come to proposal moment. He showed her an original video of happy messages from their friends. Proposal succeeded and everyone celebrated and then her family appeared in front of her from Singapore. This was a big surprise and all of us were happy very much.
Video is different as photos and moving memories with voice and music are great for leaving memories of travel in Japan. I am looking forward to taking video a lot and help everyone to surprise propose in Japan!!

Kimono photo session in Fushimi Inari shrine, Kyoto!!

Posted Posted in KYOTO

Amon and her daughter joined my shooting tour in Kyoto. They rended Japanese kimono before a shooting at kimono rental shop by Fushimi Inari shrine and they looked so nice. The girl was very excited to wear special outfits and talked to me a lot about her, me, mom, and Japan. It was easy to have friendship and we enjoyed a shooting so much.
Fushimi Inari shrine has a ton of gates and this shrine is the most popular place in Kyoto. But there are not so much people and easy to walk and take photos with gates. I think a lot of people visit in Cherry blossoms season 2023. They liked photos I took and I was very happy to see them!!:)

A shooting with Deers in Nara deer park!!

Posted Posted in NARA

This place is one of the places you should visit in Japan. You can see a lot of deers everywhere after you got off the train at Nara station. They are very used to people and some of them follow you if you have any snacks. Shops sell biscuits for deers and you can feed them in the park. Deers are usually starving in the morning and I have seen some tourists who have a biscuits and were surrounded by deers many times. I visited there with my guests and they enjoyed to feed deers and take photos with them.
Nara has traditional area like a Kyoto because this city has very long history. I took them to the traditional area and took some shots with a temple and a tower.
I recommend you Nara for day trip if you stay in Osaka or Kyoto. It takes about 1 hour from these cities and I am sure you would have great time with deers!!!

I got a very excited about this and we start to discuss how to make her surprise and where the best place for proposal and many things. They came to Japan the end of year and we planed it happen on 2nd January.
A shooting place is Arashiyama, Kyoto. Why we chose this area is Arashiyama has many beautiful place and he wanted to propose at Kimono forest. They rent a kimono before a shooting and I was waiting for them in front of kimono rental shop. I was super nervous honestly.
I saw they came out from a shop and he saw me. I was following them to kimono forest as a normal tourist. Our plan is like this, he ask me ‘Can you take our photo?’ and pass me his phone and then he propose her. So I needed to follow and keep to stay by them but not too close. I was worrying if she found about this plan and something, you can image what I was quite nervous haha
Without thinking about that, He proposed her smoothly and she said YES!! and Of course I got many great photos of them with a ring. It was amazing day and they gave me happiness a lot. Thank you for choosing me as a photographer of your surprise proposal!!! Check video!!!
