I had a wonderful photo session in Namba, Osaka, with a super friendly couple and their absolutely adorable little boy. Since it was an evening shoot, I was able to capture some beautiful shots with neon lights and lanterns as the backdrop. The boy kept smiling at me the whole time and looked especially happy when playing at the claw machines in the arcade.

The one-hour session went so smoothly because he was in such a great mood the entire time, which made it even more enjoyable for me! I was able to take so many cute photos, and I’m glad his parents were really happy with them too. I hope they visit Japan again soon!

I had the pleasure of capturing a wonderful and adorable couple’s proposal at Osaka Castle Park! We met in a quieter area of the park, and as always, I pretended to be a tourist while waiting for them.
His proposal was absolutely perfect, and she didn’t see it coming at all. She was so surprised and deeply moved, which made me so happy and filled with joy to witness.
Afterward, we explored different spots in the park for photos, and the two of them were so natural in front of the camera, which allowed me to capture many amazing shots. We also had great conversations during the shoot, making the whole experience truly special.
Congratulations again to both of you! I’m so grateful for the beautiful time we shared. Please come back to Japan again someday!

I went to Minoh Falls to take photos of a cheerful couple at the end of summer in 2024. We met at the station and walked toward the falls, stopping at some beautiful spots along the way to take photos. We also talked a lot about each other, Japan, and California. I had visited this area a month ago to check for good angles, so the shoot went very smoothly. Although it took about 50 minutes to reach the falls, I didn’t feel tired because we had so much fun. They wanted photos by the water and even went barefoot to get close. The photos turned out wonderfully, and they loved them all. I was so happy to capture these moments—thank you so much for choosing me as your photographer!

I had the pleasure of photographing a wonderful couple in Osaka. They were dressed in traditional kimonos, which looked absolutely perfect, especially in the beautiful shrine where we shot. Even though they said it was their first time having a photo shoot, they gave me such natural smiles, and we were able to capture so many great photos with ease. I was also thrilled that they showed so much interest in the history of the shrine and Japanese culture, and it made me happy to explain it to them. It was a hot day, but the hour flew by. Thank you both for such a fun and enjoyable time!

I had the pleasure of photographing a very cool man traveling solo! He was the perfect fit for a nighttime shoot in Namba, and every shot we took turned out amazing. He was so happy with the photos every time I showed him, and we had a great time chatting throughout the session. It was such a relaxed shoot! I hope you come back to Japan again soon!😊
