TOKYO FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER | TOKYO MATERNITY PHOTOGRAPHER
TOKYO NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER | TOKYO VACATION PHOTOGRAPHER
There are so many CHERISHED moments in a family's life but sometimes we forget to document them through the every day chaos.
Lifestyle Family Photography in Tokyo
Lifestyle family sessions are about capturing life as it truly is. During your Tokyo family photography session, I will document the unposed, candid, and authentic moments shared between your family, your baby, or your partner.
Whether you are on a Tokyo vacation or living here, these sessions focus on the essence of your family — the personalities, the quirks, the laughter, and the love. I will tell your story and celebrate what makes your family unique, creating timeless images that honour your history together.
A Boutique Experience
I pride myself on offering a bespoke and attentive photography experience for every client. From our first face-to-face zoom consultation to your session day, I take the time to understand what matters most to you, so I can capture images that beautifully reflects your family.

A Family Heirloom
How often do you have frame-worthy photographs where everyone is naturally smiling together? With a focus on candid moments and attention to detail, I will document your family in an authentic way so that you have heirloom images to treasure for a lifetime.
“Our photos are absolutely stunning and capture everyday moments that are almost forgotten in the whirlwind of a first baby. Our family now have calendars, books, and cards galore!”

FAQ
I am camera shy! What's your advice?
I understand this as I feel more comfortable behind the camera than in front of it myself! My pre-session consultation meeting gives us an opportunity to connect face-to-face so that I am not a stranger to you on your session day and I will provide you with plenty of guidance during the session as well. At the session we will be chatting and having some laughs and I promise you we won't be shooting in awkward silence! After all I want to connect with you to get the real you and authentic candid shots of you.
How shall I prepare for the session - for example, what shall I wear?
I will go through all the details, wardrobe suggestions, location, the theme and concept of the session during our pre-session consultation meeting so you feel fully prepared and confident for your session!
How far in advance shall I book you?
Ideally please get in touch 1 - 2 months in advance if possible to avoid disappointment. Most of my family sessions take place during week days (especially during the summer we can make the most out of the longer evenings). For outdoor sessions, taking it during golden hour (two hours after sunrise or two hours before sunset) is the best! There is a 20% surcharge for weekend bookings.
What do I do if my kids aren’t behaving or the baby keeps crying?
I have done many sessions with babies and children so I know the drill! During the session I get the kids to play with you so usually we don't have a big problem with them getting bored. However, we also can't force things - we just have to wait patiently for your children to calm down or wait for the baby to settle. After all they are the stars of the shoot! So just relax - let's sit down, grab a coffee, have a break, feed the kids/baby, and start rolling again.
Can other family members join in?
Absolutely! The basic package is suitable for immediate family members only but of course we can add more extended family members by customising the package to include more coverage time. The more the merrier!
Can we get the RAW (unedited and straight off the camera) photos?
The editing process is an essential part of my style and art. A RAW (unprocessed) photo is flatter, less saturated, and duller than edited images (not to mention they are enormously large files and need a special photography software to just open the file). The RAW file contains all the raw data so that I can make edits to them to create the look you see on my website and in the photos you receive. RAW files are essentially an incomplete piece of work, which is why I cannot send them to you.
When do we get the photos?
All the edited images will become available for download via your personal online gallery approximately 3 - 4 weeks after your session date. The albums and products will be delivered to you a few weeks after you receive your personal online gallery.
