Tokyo Wedding Photographer: An Engagement in Shinjuku Gyoen and Family Mart!
I had the honor of photographing C + J for their pre-wedding photos in Shinjuku! What a fun-loving couple! They wanted to do a mix of romantic fun at Shinjuku Gyoen (garden), and silly on the streets of Shinjuku (especially at Family Mart!) I love how expressive and fun they are and playful with each other. This photo shoot was done over 3 years ago but to this day I still talk to C+J and also that it is one of the most playful + romantic shoots I’ve ever done!

It was my ABSOLUTE PLEASURE to photograph this couple during their honeymoon in Tokyo! I thought she chose such a perfect dress for the shoot- so romantic! And we still got to do some fun photos in Toon Town at the end!
Also, when they were here for their honeymoon, it was during the Tanabata Festival in Japan, which is also celebrated at Tokyo Disney Resort. It is a romantic festival, and people are encouraged to write their wishes on a paper.

Tokyo Engagement Photographer: A Proposal at Shinjuku Gyoen
I photographed this proposal in May 2017. Proposals are always so fun and exciting- Even though I”m not doing the proposing I still get so nervous and can’t wait to see the girl’s reaction! These photos were done in Shinjuku Gyoen.
Tokyo Wedding Photographer: A Cherry Blossom and Azalea Engagement at Shinjuku Gyoen
This couple came from the Philippines to Japan to do their engagement photos. It was getting closer to the end of the sakura season here in Tokyo, but luckily the YAE SAKURA was still blooming in Shinjuku Gyoen! (Photos take April 21, 2017). The beautiful surprise was when we found bright pink/ magenta azalea bushes blooming in the garden! WOW!! They added a beautiful pop of color in the photos!

Engagement photos for this couple that was on vacation in Tokyo. They came when Shinjuku Gyoen was in CRAZY FULL BLOOM…. And it was at the perfect time when there were also tons of petals on the ground. HOW BREATHTAKING!!! It was SUCH a beautiful day!
Tokyo Engagement Photographer: A Proposal Under the Cherry Trees of Chidorigafuchi
The original plan was that he was going to propose to her on a boat in the infamous moat of Chidorigafuchi park. But because of the rain, they closed the boat rental so we had to do a spontaneous back up plan. He wanted to propose to her in a quiet and intimate location under a cherry blossom tree, but that can be quite difficult considering the crowds that are in that area for the same reason of looking at cherry blossom trees. I did remember walking by a “secret” spot the other day and texted him pin drops and photos to direct him to that new location. I hid behind a tree and waited for them. I love that he waited a couple of minutes before proposing- It seemed to me like they were just soaking in the atmosphere and the beauty of everything. They were able to have a quiet and intimate moment before he suddenly dropped to one knee. (tee hee).
On another note, I LOVE her pink hair and how it matches the color of the sakura!
Tokyo Vacation Photographer: Dusk at Shibuya
This couple booked a 2 hour photoshoot with me for their anniversary. The first part of their session was taken at Shinjuku Gyoen, and the photos can be found in the previous blog.
The following photos are from our time together in Shibuya. We took the train from Shinjuku Gyoen so I figured I would get some shots in the metro along the way (I love taking photos in even the most random of locations!) They changed outfits and we had a great time exploring this area at dusk!
Tokyo Vacation Photographer: Cherry Blossom Anniversary at Shinjuku Gyoen
They came to Tokyo to celebrate their anniversary, and it was perfect timing for Sakura at Shinjuku Gyoen! After the garden closed, we made our way to Shibuya to get a few photos at the crossing as well!
Tokyo Wedding Photographer: A Cherry Blossom Anniversary at Shinjuku Gyoen
This couple flew to Japan to celebrate their 1 year anniversary! My client even brought her wedding dress all the way from the Philippines so she could take photos under the cherry blossoms with it. These photos were taken mid-March but luckily we were able to get some photos with sakura trees in them! Later she changed outfits and wore yukata. It was a beautiful day and a wonderful sesssion! I love the lighting when the sunlight peeked through the forest!
Tokyo Engagement Photographer: A Proposal at Shiba Koen
Guillaume contacted me the day before he planned to propose and we communicated via Whatsapp to figure out these last minute details for this proposal + engagement shoot! This couple was really lucky to have such amazing weather in Tokyo… the next day it was pouring rain. His fiancee truly was surprised by the proposal, and of course SHE SAID YES! You can tell in the photos that she was very happy and kept giggling and laughing since she was so surprised. I really enjoyed capturing that emotion!
Tokyo Vacation Photographer: An Evening in Shibuya
This couple was in Tokyo for vacation and they wanted some photos in Shibuya at night! I am so glad I had this opportunity to photograph them- they were fun, silly, and I loved their style! I really like how she chose bright colors to wear to stand out against the sea of black/gray/neutral colors. This couple really stood out among the crowd. Besides getting some awesome photos in between the crowds and the lights, we took some fun photos with vending machines and robots as well. Shibuya can be a hectic area to photograph in but it is definitely one of the most fun!
Enjoy!
