Present by Kyoto Photographer Wasao
Pre-wedding photo shooting
Wasao, who has lived in Kyoto for over 30 years, knows wonderful spots where you can feel the vibe of Kyoto and Japan, such as narrow alleys, stations, and small rivers etc that are not famous tourist spots. Of course, I know temples and shrines. In this plan, Wasao, who knows Kyoto well, will talk with you about what kind of vibe you’re looking for a shooting place. He wants to take photos in a free style without getting caught up with famous tourist spots, and express the customers’ candid and true smiles! Let’s be free!!

Nicole & Bart from Hong Kong🇭🇰
We had the pleasure of working with Wasao for our pre-wedding photoshoot in Japan, and it was truly unforgettable. This was our first trip post-COVID, and finding Wasao through Instagram was a stroke of luck. His fluent English made communication seamless, which was a huge plus for us.
Wasao went above and beyond by planning the perfect locations and arranging kimono rentals ahead of time. We appreciated the pre-meeting where he took the time to get to know us and understand our style. Despite being camera shy, Wasao effortlessly captured our natural interactions, making the entire experience incredibly enjoyable. The photos turned out amazing and genuinely reflected our personalities. We also love his kid photo collection, and we’re already looking forward to returning to Japan for a family photoshoot when we have a new addition to our family.
Wasao’s professionalism, attention to detail, and warm demeanor made our photoshoot an unforgettable experience. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer in Japan!

Wasao is incredibly talented and professional, and we were blown away with the finished results for our wedding photos. Although we were a little nervous at first (our first photoshoot), Wasao made us feel comfortable and confident which made for natural-looking photos. We really enjoyed our time creating these special memories and had a few good laughs along the way.
He had some great ideas and was open to hearing ours which made for some really excellent shots.
We’d like to get some family photos taken in the near future – we definitely know who we’ll be contacting for that!
Thank you for our beautiful photos that we will treasure for a lifetime!

“I had an incredible experience with Wasaophotography’s Kyoto Vibe in the City photo plan👏 From the moment we met, he was warm, friendly, and highly professional, making me feel completely at ease throughout the session. He has a great eye for detail and knows the best hidden spots in Kyoto to capture its traditional charm. For me it’s just a normal view but going through his camera, WoW!!😱
What I appreciated the most was his ability to create a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere, giving clear yet natural guidance while ensuring the photos felt authentic and personal. His passion for photography and deep knowledge of Kyoto truly shine through in every shot. The final photos exceeded my expectations—they beautifully reflect the essence of Kyoto and will be cherished memories for years to come. If you’re looking for a talented, kind, and professional photographer to capture your Kyoto experience, I highly recommend this service!”
