Tokyo Wedding Photographer: An Engagement in Shinjuku Gyoen and Family Mart!

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.

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!
