“ Yoshi was amazing to work with! He was communicative from booking to meeting. He also gave us tips on the best times to beat the crowd for the best photos. He helped us with poses and had a lot of fun ideas for the shoot. We chose Yoshi as our photographer because he was in Kyoto and we loved his shooting style. He came prepared with TWO camera for close up and wide-angle shots. He was highly professional and we highly recommend Yoshi. ”
“ Me and my partner booked an hour and a half session with Coo for our engagement in Kyoto. Coo made our special day even more incredible by capturing photos that will forever be etched in our families memory. He was kind, patient, knowledgeable and funny, making the photoshoot very comfortable and easy. I can’t recommend Coo enough! ”
“ Thank you so much Masa & Asami! For such an amazing time, your patience, and capturing such amazing memories for our family. We love our family photos so much! ”
“ Yoshi was absolutely incredible! He made us feel so comfortable and helped us with posing. He was so kind and very talented! Our photos turned out absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Yoshi! ”
“ We had a fantastic experience with Masa for our Kyoto engagement shoot. He’s personable, professional, and easy to talk to. His warm and engaging personality made us feel comfortable right away, which translated to candid and beautiful photos! Thank you so much for capturing this milestone and making our first visit to Japan even more memorable! ”
“ We booked a photoshoot to document our anniversary trip to Japan and Coo did an amazing job. He was so kind and personable. We felt really comfortable with him from the beginning and really loved chatting with him as we were visiting the most serene temples along Philosopher's Path for our morning photoshoot. I highly recommend booking Coo! ”
“ We had such a wonderful experience with Coo! We selected the Okazaki Park / Nanzen-ji Temple route and it ended up being the perfect backdrop — peaceful, scenic, and a beautiful way to get to know Kyoto. We met in the afternoon and the lighting was so beautiful. My husband usually needs some time to warm up in front of the camera, but Coo made us feel so relaxed right from the start. He was so kind, encouraging, and captured so many natural, candid moments of us laughing and just enjoying the walk. We’ve worked with a few photographers before, but Coo truly stands out — one of our absolute favourites. Highly recommend! :) ”
“ Book them! Coo handled our shoot, and he was amazing! He helped me pick the date, time, and vibe for the whole photoshoot. He was so easy to get ahold of, and he kept in constant contact via WhatsApp. He was almost an hour early to the photoshoot, which was perfect because it allowed us to get some early photographs before other visitors arrived. My now fiancé couldn't be happier! We loved walking with Coo to different shot locations. He also works as a tour guide, so he was teaching us about the signifigance of each location that we shot in, so we got a free tour to go with these incredible photos! Best of all, Coo was kind, patient, and very enjoyable to work with. This literally couldn't have gone any better - it was perfect! Coo made our special day that much more special. We are forever grateful to him! Book him without thinking twice about it! ”
“ Yoshi was amazing! We love our photos while in Kyoto. Yoshi was flexible with our large group. He was able to capture some more candid moments that I really loved. Very friendly and took the time to make sure our experience was great. Highly recommend. ”
“ We absolutely loved our session with Coo! 🌟 From start to finish, he was amazing, professional, punctual, and always so polite. He made us feel completely comfortable and even shared great tips and ideas throughout the shoot. We were a family with a little one, and Coo was incredibly patient and kind with him, which made the whole experience even better. The photos turned out beautiful, full of warmth and joy. Thank you, Coo, for such a wonderful experience and for capturing these memories so perfectly! 💛 ”
“ Coo was excellent at communication several days before hand and the day of. He made it easy to locate him which was helpful as a first timer to Japan! He was incredibly kind and helpful. We had so much fun on our shoot and learning more about Kyoto while seeing beautiful scenery! These photos are so special to us as we celebrated our anniversary during the shoot. ”
“ Coo was amazing to work with! We took photos in Higashiyama and while there were already other people trying to get pictures early in the morning, he did a great job of navigating the crowds and getting the shots we wanted. He was very communicative before and during the shoot, and very accommodating of our two small (and sometimes uncooperative) children. We would highly recommend him and would happily book with him again! ”
“ We (a family of 5 adults and a toddler) are so lucky to have found Coo on our trip to Kyoto. He was engaging and thoughtful during our 1 hour photo shoot and interacted so easily with our 3 year old. The time was early in the morning and in addition to the bamboo forest Coo also took us to a few more scenic spots including a beautiful river and bridge. Our whole family felt at ease with him and he made our toddler laugh so much. Do not hesitate to book with Coo. We highly recommend him for your next vacation photo shoot! ”
“ I spent a lot of time searching for the right photographer, and I ultimately chose Coo because of his deep understanding of my proposal vision and his extensive experience shooting in Kyoto. He was receptive to many of my ideas, and together we finalized a proposal plan that felt perfect. Coo was fantastic and prompt in answering all of my questions leading up to the proposal—most of our communication took place via WhatsApp. I had some very specific requests, and he was great at offering thoughtful alternatives that still aligned with my original ideas. I highly recommend Coo! He speaks English fluently and helped make both my fiancé and me feel completely at ease during the photo shoot. ”
“ This is our third time using Flytographer. We did this in Paris, Tokyo and now Kyoto. It's becoming a tradition. We searched the reviews and found Coo. Coo was punctual, professional, and experienced. He was able to tailor the photoshoot to the places we requested and also gave us some insight to the history of the area. He also took the time to take some photos on our iPhone for us too! We also found out that he can take photos in other areas of Japan as well. Next time we are in Japan we will definitely be reaching out to him. ”
“ Coo is an amazing photographer. If you are planning on proposing in Japan and Coo is available, I would 100% book him. All of our photos are perfect and when we show them to people back home, they are all amazed. The photos are crisp, full of detail and he was able to capture the perfect moments during our proposal. Coo is professional, patient, and talented with the camera. Again, straight to the point if you are thinking of booking a photographer in Japan, Coo is who you want to pick. ”
“ Yoshi was really great, and we would rate him as the best flytographer we have ever had! He was super friendly since the beginning. We had a great time talking with him while doing the photos and he made us feel super comfortable. Our photos look amazing, thank you so much Yoshi for this wonderful memory in Kyoto! ”
“ We had the most wonderful experience with Coo during our family trip to Kyoto! He was incredibly patient and fantastic with our children, making everyone feel relaxed and comfortable right from the start. His knowledge of beautiful, less-crowded locations was a huge plus, allowing us to get stunning shots with iconic scenery. The final photos are absolutely breathtaking and have become our favorite souvenirs from the trip. We couldn't be happier and wholeheartedly recommend Coo to any family looking to capture magical memories in Kyoto! ”
“ We worked with Coo and he was amazing with my young family! He gave great tips about the area as well as other places in Japan as well. Highly recommend working with him! ”
“ Coo was fantastic to work with. Not only was he a great photographer, he was willing to be flexible, and made great suggestions based on my asks. He was very communicative and clear leading up to the proposal. He was extremely easy to work with - and brought positive energy to our experience. He knows the area extremely well and his location suggestions are top tier. He is clearly experienced in his craft. We had zero issues and only positive experiences - Would highly suggest working with, and would hire again for any other occasion. ”
“ Coo did an amazing job and I highly recommend him!! I worked with Coo several weeks ago for a proposal shoot in Kyoto. From the initial appointment set up, to a last minute weather delay, Coo was communicative, informative, and took our own considerations into his route planning. Although this was our first photoshoot of any kind, Coo did a great job putting us at ease with more natural poses and nothing felt forced. While some of the places we picked were crowded, Coo perfectly frames the pictures to look like we had the entire place to ourselves. I appreciated the preview at the end of our photoshoot and am impressed with the quality of the final pictures. Overall, I had an amazing experience with Coo and would recommend him to my friends and family (or internet stranger). Thank you again Coo! ”
“ 10/10. Thanks to Yoshi for helping us make this proposal come true. He was amazing to work with and so accommodating since this our first time here. The pictures came out amazing. ”
“ We had the best time! Communication was super easy, and photographer helped us with poses so the photos came out natural. They were really friendly, gave us awesome local tips, and got the pictures back to us so fast. We were in Kyoto celebrating our anniversary and absolutely love how the photos turned out! ”
