Capturing Memories in Kanazawa, Japan!


On Japan's main island, Kanazawa, the capital of Ishikawa Prefecture, is a historic town that brims with the timeless beauty of ancient Japan. Its Zen gardens, samurai and geisha districts, traditional tea houses, and shrines spellbind visitors, as does its splendid 16th-century castle. There's no wonder the city is known as "Little Kyoto!" Kanazawa's old town is a treasure trove of cultural experiences and offers many wonderful spots for photo shoots. Among the favourites of local photographers are family photoshoots around Higashi Chaya Machi, romantic surprise proposals with the Kanazawa Castle in the background, and capturing the asymmetrical and serene landscape of Kenrokuen Garden — beautiful and unique in every season! Whether you are from Japan, looking to capture your upcoming family vacation, or planning a surprise proposal, our local photographers in Kanazawa are ready to capture your memories.
