“ If you need a photographer who’s equal parts talented and FUN, look no further! Ayako kept us laughing the entire time and somehow captured the most gorgeous photos. Her energy is contagious, her creativity is unreal, and the final shots were perfection. She gave us such great direction throughout the shoot and made us feel so comfortable, natural, and confident in front of the camera. Truly a 100/10 experience! ”
“ Ayako was a delight to work with! She knew the best, least crowded spots to take incredible photos, and she was an altogether lovely person! I would definitely book her again next time I'm in Tokyo! ”
“ Ayako was extremely helpful and accommodating. Coordinating a surprise proposal was very easy and magical working with her. Her reaction after the proposal and the posed photos afterward were a peak experience for my (now) fiance and I ”
“ Absolutely fantastic. Nathalie really nailed the occasion and was well prepared for the day and the pictures came out brilliant ”
“ Long overdue. Miho was fantastic — friendly, professional, and great at guiding us through the best spots. The photos came out beautiful, natural, and exactly what we hoped for. The whole experience was easy, fun, and one of the highlights of our trip. Highly recommend! ”
“ From booking, to the photoshoot, to getting our photos, we’ve been thrilled with our experience with Ayako and Flytographer. We so appreciated Ayako’s clear and quick communication throughout the process. She had several photo locations planned within a short walk of one another, so we were able to get lots of different backdrops in a short one-hour shoot. She helped with posing, gave us a guided tour of the area, and even gave us some personalized recommendations for restaurants to check out. We knew our photos would be stunning just from looking at her online portfolio when we went to book her, but still we were so delighted and impressed with our images. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience in Asakusa and for such special souvenirs of our trip. If you want beautiful souvenir photos of your trip to Japan, Ayako is phenomenal! ”
“ Ayako was wonderful!!! Very easy to talk to, made us feel so comfortable during the photo shoot. Loved the history of Asakusa as well, it provides a deeper understanding of the location spot! Ayako's vision and keen eye to our placement in relation to the background as well as the colors, really captured the moments. Thank you so much Ayako!!! ”
“ Ayako was amazing before, during and after the session! She had super useful advice to prepare the session, and was very reactive to my messages. During the session, she was able to capture the magic of the moment, with the surprise of my now fiancée immortalized! And during the following hour, Ayako had so many perfect ideas for pictures, I could not have wished better! I can only highly recommend Ayako ”
“ Ayako was so much fun to work with. She was concerned about the weather and contacted me with potential reschedule dates in case the weather was unpleasant. Not only that, when we met up, she was just such a pleasure. She worked quickly and gave us so many beautiful shots and tips! I highly recommend using her- she is extremely nice and professional. We love how our photos came out- they came out better than we could have imagined! We will tell all our friends coming through Japan to use her services! ”
“ Ayako was wonderful to work with! I would be hard pressed to not work with her again. She worked with us to get the best possible shots at the best possible time. If it were not for her planning, we would have taken the photos on a day where it was raining or worse. Looking at our photos feels like she worked magic in to it as Asakusa was heavily crowded. She managed to capture us in the extremely scenic spot where it was difficult to keep the crowd congestion out of the photos, but there are shots here that capture us in the same solace that we experience in our relationship. She also captured us with expressions thanks to her great directing. She was very easy to talk to and get to know on our short time of working with. If you are looking for a photographer for your shoot in some of Japan's highly congested areas, or in Tokyo in general, I highly recommend Ayako. ”
“ Ayako was amazing! She is very experienced and gave us great recommendations on locations and timing to avoid crowds. She is very friendly and encouraging, making it easy to get comfortable in front of the camera, and provided the perfect amount of direction. I highly recommend booking with her! ”
“ Miho was the best, me and my girlfriend were unfamiliar with the country but she made us feel comfortable. She was easy to talk to and we would recommend her to all. ”
“ Ayako was amazing to work with on our shoot. She was very informative before the shoot, even sending us outfit ideas to match the autumn leaves. During the shoot she made us feel us feel relaxed and at ease. She coached us on how to pose and made sure we looked out best for every shot. She is so knowledgeable about Shinjuku Gyoen and knew the best places for pictures. We were able to fit so many beautiful shots in the time we had. Next time we are in Tokyo we will certainly reach out to her to for another booking! ”
“ Ayoka was simply amazing! She gave us a great history Senso-Ji and found the best places to take pictures to look like we had the place to ourselves, despite it being flooded with tourists. We love our pictures so much and appreciate her work! ”
“ Kilakila went above and beyond for our photoshoot experience. He recommended a beautiful, private park for an intimate proposal setting, was very flexible on shoot time and was very friendly throughout the entire process. When my partner requested a very specific shot where I placed the ring on her finger, Kilakila responded quickly, found the exact picture we were looking for and shared it immediately. I would 100% recommend Kilakila if you're looking for a truly fantastic experience. ”
“ We had an absolutely wonderful experience working with Ayako during our trip to Japan. She was incredibly professional—arriving early, fully prepared, and completely accommodating to our preferred shoot locations. Since this shoot was for our 25th wedding anniversary, she went above and beyond and surprised us with a thoughtful handwritten card, which meant so much to us. Ayako has a fantastic eye for detail, and her ability to offer insightful guidance made the entire session fun, relaxed, and truly special. The photos were delivered quickly, and the quality exceeded our expectations—she even shared more images than promised because there were so many great shots. We are so grateful to have met her on our trip. She is talented, kind, and passionate about her work, and it shows in every image. We couldn’t recommend her more highly. Thank you, Ayako, for capturing memories we will cherish forever! 💛📸 ”
“ Gregory was fantastic. He took us all around Shibuya and has creative ideas for how to pose at each spot, and even was able to accommodate a special request. The pictures turned out fantastic and he turned them around extremely quickly ”
“ Thank you Nathalie for being great with our family and suggesting beautiful spots in Shinjuku Gyoen Garden to make us look our best! So friendly and easy to work with! Hope to be back in Tokyo and take photos with you again in the future :) ”
“ Absolutely loved working with Cho! He made the shoot so fun and easy and the photos turned out gorgeous. Couldn’t have asked for a better photographer! ”
“ We had a wonderful time during our photo shoot with Miho. She was super easy to work with; she recommended really good places, made us feel really comfortable, and probably knew Shinjuku Gyoen Park inside and out. If you're looking for a photographer, I highly recommend Miho. ”
“ I adore the photos so much and loved working with Ayako! She is so funny and makes you feel relaxed during the shoot and shares fun stories and tips. The pictures she shoots are so cute and fun! Would highly recommend her and would love to book her again! ”
“ We had the best time for our shoot with Ayako and the photos turned out sooo beautifully! I highly recommend her work- we did a couples shoot around Hibiya and Yurachuko and the mix of fall foliage with quaint izakaya and modern Tokyo was exactly what I was looking for. She is so talented, gave us the right cueing and had lots of great suggestions for spots as we walked around. She was also a lovely person to chat with and learn about the area! ”
“ Miho was amazing!!! We knew it was going to be rainy so she made suggestions which were super helpful in us being prepared! Our 5 year old son thought she was amazing and she captured his personality perfectly along with getting great family shots and capturing the beautiful city of Tokyo!! Thank you Miho!! ”
