Are You Looking for a Photographer in Japan?
Hello, I’m Masa.
If you’re looking for a photographer in Japan, I’d be honored to document your special moments — not only with high-quality images, but as an experience you can truly enjoy. For us, photography is more than taking pictures; it’s about creating a relaxed, memorable experience that reflects your story.
Professional Experience Since 2012
I studied photography in London and have been working professionally since 2012.
Together with my wife, we photograph couples, proposals, and families. As parents of two, we truly enjoy working with children and know how to create a calm and comfortable atmosphere during sessions.
Natural & Authentic Photography
My approach is natural and documentary.
I focus on capturing genuine reactions and the atmosphere of each moment rather than directing stiff poses.
You won’t hear me asking you to say “cheese” or telling your children to stay still. Instead, I gently guide you so you can relax and enjoy the experience itself, resulting in honest, timeless photographs that reflect who you truly are.
If you’d like to plan a session, please choose a package below and contact us through the inquiry form. We look forward to hearing your story.

About Me
Photography is more than just my profession — it’s the way I see the world. I’m always drawn to light, movement, and the subtle expressions that appear in fleeting moments. Even on my days off, I carry a camera with me, wanting to preserve life as it unfolds.
What I value most is not staged expressions, but authenticity. There’s no need for perfect poses. Whether someone is laughing, crying, or even feeling a little frustrated, I believe those honest moments become the most meaningful memories.
Before becoming a photographer, I worked as a mechanical engineer. In 2012, I chose to follow my passion and completely changed careers. I realized I wanted to connect with people and create something lasting, rather than spend my days in front of a computer.
Travel has always been a major source of inspiration for me. I’ve visited more than 80 countries, and the Arctic Circle remains one of my favorite places. Photographing there has become a lifelong project and an important stage for my artistic work. New landscapes and encounters continue to shape the way I see and capture the world.
Above all, the time I spend with my wife and children is the most precious part of my life. My photography is rooted in that sense of connection and the desire to cherish each present moment.
Alongside my client work, I continue my artistic journey as a landscape photographer, holding solo exhibitions and offering fine art prints. Together with my wife, I also create and share content about Japanese language and culture through YouTube and podcasts.
Through photography, I hope to preserve the connection between people and the atmosphere that exists only in that singular moment.

The shooting time is generally counted from the moment you, our clients, meet with our photographer.
