My first photoshoot of 2026 was a beautiful kimono proposal session with an amazing couple at Osaka Castle Park. It was the perfect way to start the year with love, surprise, and unforgettable scenery in Japan.

We planned the proposal carefully at Osaka Castle Park and told her that it would be a normal couple photoshoot. Wearing traditional kimono, they arrived excited for photos, not knowing that a proposal was about to happen. We met naturally, took a few casual photos, and then slowly moved to the special spot we had planned in advance.

Just as we discussed, he followed the plan perfectly and proposed smoothly. Because of that, I was able to capture very emotional and natural proposal photos. She was truly surprised and happy, and even people nearby started congratulating them. It was such a warm and beautiful moment surrounded by smiles and love.

On that day, the weather was extremely cold, and at one point, snow started falling heavily, almost like a snowstorm. However, that made the experience even more special. The snowy scenery turned Osaka Castle Park into something magical. Seeing Osaka Castle covered in snow while capturing their engagement photos felt like the city itself was celebrating their important day with them.

The combination of kimono, snow, and Osaka Castle created unforgettable proposal photos in Japan. It became a very memorable day for the couple and also for me as their photographer.

Thank you so much for such a fun and emotional shoot, and for choosing me as your proposal photographer in Japan. Please come back and visit Japan again someday. I would love to photograph your next memories here.
