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!

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 Lifestyle Photographer: A Day in the Life of the Wan Family
I have to say, I really enjoy when a client chooses meaningful places to do a photo session at! For this family photo session, it was more of a “lifestyle” than a “portrait” session in that we explored their neighborhood, stopping by a 7-11, a little park, a traditional house, a restaurant… we basically just walked around and had some fun!
Why do I like these photos so much? I feel like these photos really show a story- A day in the life of this beautiful family.
I hope you enjoy the photos as much as I enjoyed photographing this bright, silly, and fun family!
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: Annie Explores Shibuya
Annie was traveling through Japan by herself and wanted to get some photos in Shibuya so that way not all of her photos would be “selfies.” I love that she is so adventurous and travels by herself and wanted to be able to remember her trip this way! She was fun to hangout with and was so open to doing a bunch of fun things in Shibuya, including- talking to robots, going to the Purikura photobooths, going to the arcade, and checking out some of the fun stores!
Note: This was a photoshoot I did for Flytographer.
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!
