Our guide knew many good spots and suggested nice poses. We saw the sights while we were taking pictures. It was very fun ☺️

We had such an amazing experience with Amare during our photoshoot in Kyoto! He captured such beautiful photos of me, my partner and my brother, and we absolutely loved how they turned out. 📸❤️ You can tell that Amare really knows what he’s doing. He wasn’t just randomly clicking away—he knew exactly what he was looking for, from the angles and lighting to the poses and little details that made each photo special. If you’re not someone who normally knows how to pose, don’t worry at all! Amare is really helpful and will guide you on exactly what to do and how to pose, which made us feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the shoot. The pictures came out absolutely beautiful, and we’re so happy to have these memories from Kyoto. We loved the whole experience from start to finish and would definitely recommend Amare to anyone looking for a professional photoshoot in Kyoto! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Dopo aver prenotato la sessione, il nostro fotografo Amari ci ha contattati subito tramite WhatsApp per organizzarci. Una volta arrivati a Kyoto, abbiamo noleggiato dei kimono e Amari ci ha accompagnati in diversi punti della zona di Gion. Avevamo scelto l’orario delle 17:00 ed è stata un’ottima scelta, perché abbiamo potuto realizzare scatti sia con la luce del giorno sia con l’atmosfera della sera. Durante tutta la sessione ci ha suggerito diverse pose e idee per le fotografie e ci ha portati in varie location, permettendoci di avere scatti molto diversi tra loro. La comunicazione è sempre stata semplice e chiara e ci siamo trovati molto bene. Già il giorno successivo abbiamo ricevuto le fotografie tra cui scegliere quelle da sottoporre al photo editing, nonostante fosse il weekend. Siamo davvero soddisfatti dell’esperienza e del risultato!

We had a wonderful experience with our photographer during our 1.5-hour photo session in Kyoto, Japan. We chose an early morning session, around 6:30 a.m., and it was definitely the right choice. There were very few people around, which allowed us to enjoy several beautiful locations without the crowds. Even when there were a few people around, the photographer did a great job finding the right angles and positioning so that our photos were free of other people in the background. This was really appreciated, as having crowd-free photos was very important to us. We also received access to all the photos from the session, including 40 professionally edited photos. The quality was excellent, both in the original photos and the edited ones. We highly recommend this photographer for his professionalism, creativity, and the quality of his work!


Highlights

This is a private photoshoot with a professional photographer set against Kyoto's traditional streets. You meet the photographer in front of Yasaka Pagoda and take photos while walking around the Gion district and the Shirakawa Canal, and the photographer suggests natural poses and naturally captures you walking and chatting. No modeling experience is needed, and couples, friends, families and solo travelers are all welcome. You can be photographed in a kimono or in your everyday clothes, and after the shoot you receive edited photos via Google Drive.


Program

Start at Yasaka Pagoda
and pose against Gion's traditional streets

Meet the photographer in front of the iconic Yasaka Pagoda to begin the shoot. Walk the beautiful traditional streets around the Gion district and the Shirakawa Canal and take photos against quintessential Kyoto backdrops.

The route starts at Yasaka Pagoda and continues on foot past places such as Yasaka Koshin-do, Kodai-ji Temple, Maruyama Park and Yasaka Shrine. The actual route may vary depending on the option you choose and conditions on the day.

Your photographer guides you into natural poses

Throughout the shoot, the photographer suggests natural poses and captures you naturally as you walk, chat and enjoy the atmosphere. Even without modeling experience, all you need to do is relax and enjoy.

Kimono or everyday clothes — choose your style

You can wear a traditional Japanese kimono for even more special photos. Kimono rental is not included, so please book it separately before the shoot; the photographer can recommend a rental shop near the meeting point. A kimono is optional, so you are also welcome to be photographed comfortably in your everyday clothes.

Pick your favorites and receive the edited photos

After the shoot, you receive JPEG preview photos via Google Drive. Choose the photos you want edited, and the photographer carefully retouches them and sends the final high-resolution images via Google Drive.
