  • What should I wear during the session?
    You are welcome to wear anything you feel that best represents you! There are no strict dress code in Japanese temples and shrines, but it is recommended to stick to something comfy and conservative. Avoid loud prints or logos if possible. For couples, family or group portraits, a similar tone would create a unified feeling in the photos. Of course, you can always play dress-up and even bring props. Changing outfits is possible in 1 hour sessions or longer. Please have the outfits ready during the session. Please understand that the photographer will not be responsible for carrying the client's items during the session.
  • I cannot find the link to my images. What happened?
    I highly recommend to have your images downloaded and backed up securely within 2 months from the session. Photos from the session may not be available after 2 month due to high volume of storage space consumption.
  • Do you also offer videography services?
    Yes! I also provide drone-services. If the shoot requires it, a team can also be assembled to meet your needs. Please enquire for further information.
  • I plan to bring my baby / toddler to the session - will that be OK?
    Of course! 1 hour sessions are encouraged with babies / pets. Please ensure your baby / toddler comes with a full, happy belly before the session. Feel free to bring toys and snacks for the session if that helps. Be reminded that if coming by train, do allow ample time for traveling as elevators at the stations may require a longer route/wait. Similarly, if coming by car, please allow more time for parking availability. A gentle reminder that there are no complimentary time extensions for late arrivals.
  • What happens if the weather isn't suitable? E.g. If it rains?
    If the weather is undesirable, the session will be rescheduled at no additional costs. However, if it is rainy - it could add a certain moody look to the photos. We can discuss further a day before the shoot.
  • Will my photos be used as part of a portfolio?
    The discounted rate for the session includes the rights to use images to promote my page. Some selected photos may potentially be used on my website, sample albums & social networking sites.
  • What happens if I'm late for the session?
    Unfortunately, there are no complimentary time extensions for late arrivals. An extension of 30 minutes (maximum) can be added to the session with a fee of ¥10,000 (or $USD equivalent). Please arrive at least 5 minutes before the start of the session.
