Tokyo Portrait Sessions

Are you looking for a portrait/vacation photographer in the Tokyo area for a couple or solo traveler photo session? I’ve photographed everything from weddings to influencers and aspiring models as well as surprise proposals.

For me, every shoot is a new, unique and exciting challenge and I always strive to capture the photos my clients need, in a fun and relaxed way. For more information of my family photo session packages, please have a look about my page about family photo sessions here!

I offer several portrait packages for couples or individuals looking to capture documentary-style storytelling portrait photos from Tokyo. My bigger packages (medium and up) always include a free consultation over Skype or e-mail where we can discuss things such as locations, the best time of day to shoot or your itinerary. I can also arrange with rental kimonos and other props/experiences upon request.

My Packages

Mini Session / 25 000 JPY
A quick session for up to 30 minutes at one location. Digital delivery of 15-20 edited full resolution photos. Limited to Shibuya, Harajuku and Shinjuku areas.

Medium Session / 35 000 JPY
A session for 90 minutes at up to two locations anywhere in central Tokyo. Digital delivery of a minimum of 60 edited full resolution photos.

Big Session / 50 000 JPY
A session for 3 hours at up to three locations in central Tokyo. Digital delivery of approx 120 edited full resolution photos.

Are you planning a proposal or elopement? Or are you here on your honeymoon? Do you need a longer session or more photos? Please contact me and I’ll be happy to offer a custom package that is based on your needs.

The above mentioned rates are for locations within central Tokyo or Yokohama. I don’t mind travelling further than that. Please ask and I’ll give you a price estimate where travel time and -costs are taken into consideration.

Are you looking for a scenic back alley for night time shots or the best spot to fit the skyline of Tokyo into the frame? Or perhaps you are hoping to get photos of yourself surrounded by traditional Japanese wooden buildings or in a game center bustling with colorful lights? As someone who has been working as a travel journalist and photographer specializing in Tokyo since 2008, I know more than most people about what this city has to offer – both when it comes to the traditionally beautiful parts of Tokyo as well as quirky, fun and unusual locations. And my clients are always more than welcome to tap into my knowledge! 

Tokyo Photo Tours

If you are looking for vacation photos from Tokyo, I highly recommend my Photo Tour Packages. This combines my services as a photographer and tour guide in Tokyo. Compared to the above mentioned packages that are entirely focused on photography, the Photo Tour packages are equal parts photo session and bespoke tour of Tokyo, at a pace that is a bit slower than in the portrait packages. Each photo tour is unique and entirely tailored according to your needs. It can be as broad as a tour of some of the most famous sightseeing spots, or as narrow as a visit to some of Tokyo’s best vintage shops, a hike to beautiful mountain shrines or a night-time izakaya hopping tour. Tell me about your interests and I’ll do my best to design the perfect tour for you!

Half Day Tokyo Photo Tour / 60 000 JPY 
Digital delivery of approx 120 edited photos in full resolution.

Full Day Tokyo Photo Tour / 90 000 JPY
Same as above but for an entire day (eight hours). Digital delivery of approx 150 edited photos in full resolution.

Clients are kindly requested to also cover additional costs such as entrance fees / meals or travels outside central Tokyo if needed.

You are always welcome to contact me with any questions or requests!
