Michelle and Andy from America🇺🇸
We booked Wasao-san for an engagement shoot at arashiyama. The morning of the shoot it was quite dark and rainy so we were a bit worried how the shoot would turn out. However, from the get go we were all vibing. Wasao-san has an infectious joy when taking photos and he matched our vibe perfectly. He also was able to capture our personalities in the photos so well, while also highlighting the beauty of the setting. We had an incredibly fun time during the shoot and the resulting photos were absolutely amazing. These photos have taken their place in our treasures.
If you want a photographer that will laugh with you and capture your moments of joy Wasao-san is a 10/10 recommend💕

“We had a 1 hour photoshoot with Wasao on our honeymoon trip to Kyoto last December. Wasao is extremely friendly and it was easy to work with him from the first time I messaged Wasao to our photoshoot. Aside from Wasao’s excellent English abilities, Wasao’s carefree personality and focus on taking natural shots really helped my husband and I relax during the photoshoot. I was a bit worried about my husband taking photo together because he is camera shy but it was absolutely no problem!! Also, he knows Kyoto very well so if you want to avoid popular sightseeing spots but still look for Kyoto vibe, this would be the best choice for sure ☺️ He will support you finding the best place and time!
The result are photos that capture the happiness from our trip. Alex and I love the photos so much! 🥰 Seeing them fills us with so many happy feelings and good memories. We’re so lucky to have you as our honeymoon photographer!We would highly recommend Wasao!”

“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!”
