Family memories from our trip to Japan

Choose a place that means something to you — from temples and cherry blossoms to hidden local spots in Osaka, Kyoto, Nara, or Kobe. I’ll take care of the rest. With 20 years of experience, I capture natural moments in beautiful light without awkward posing. Families and kids are warmly welcome; I’m a father of two myself. Your photos will be professionally edited and delivered online within 48 hours. Travel fees may apply depending on the location and will always be agreed upon before booking.

Nara Photos with Sacred Deer

The deer of Nara Park are wild animals, yet they have been protected for over 1,200 years as sacred messengers. As we interact with these gentle deer, I’ll capture the natural moments of your journey. Just relax and enjoy the experience while I guide you to the best locations and light for beautiful photographs. Professional photography requires an application and permit fee, but my annual permit covers these costs for my guests. Please note that a separate travel fee of ¥5,000 applies.

everything was super smooth from the start till the end. Jojo is such a delight to work with. He is extremely easy going & patience, as we were a family of four with two small children. He is engaging with our kids as well, and we appreciate his recommendation on the route that we could take for a good capture. When the digital images were given to us, we are very pleased with the results. it truly brought back wonderful memories when we’re in Japan. Please do engage Jojo when you’re in Japan! Highly recommended :)

If I could give this experience 6 stars, I would! JoJo was a wonderful photographer, super friendly and responsive, organising it was a breeze even though we changed plans / timing. On the day of the session, he put all of us at ease, and made good friends with our feisty 2 year old, who was charmed by his gentle manner and encouragement. The photo session was very unobtrusive and natural, and amazingly the photos - 250+ of them! - were ready the very next day! Amazing shots, perfectly capturing us spontaneously enjoying a lovely sunny day in a beautiful garden in Kyoto. Something we will always treasure. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience!!
