Booking a photoshoot in Japan should feel simple.
Photo My Tokyo helps you book private photoshoots in Tokyo, Kyoto, Kawaguchiko (Mt. Fuji), and more. You’ll get English support, a photographer who makes you feel comfortable on camera, and photos you’ll love long after your trip.
How it works (step-by-step)
1) Choose your destination
Pick where you want your photoshoot: Tokyo, Kyoto, Mt. Fuji (Kawaguchiko), or many others around Japan.
2) Tell us what you want
Couples, families, proposals, pre-weddings, or travel portraits.
Share your dates and what you’re hoping for. If you’re not sure yet, that’s completely fine.
3) We match you with the right photographer
We’ll recommend the best photographer for your style, location, and shoot type. (If you already have a photographer in mind, you can request them too.)
4) Plan the shoot (quick and easy)
We confirm the time, meeting point, and location details.
You’ll know exactly where to go and what to expect.
5) Enjoy the photoshoot
Your photographer will guide you so the photos look natural, not stiff.
Most clients tell us the same thing afterwards: it felt comfortable and fun.
6) Receive your edited gallery
Your photos are professionally edited and delivered digitally, typically within 7 days.
