We had a very wonderful family photoshoot session with TK. unfortunately, out of our 9 days trip, it was raining on the day we scheduled for the photoshoot in Shirakawago & Gokayama. But TK is a very experienced photographer and all our photos turned out amazing, all well taken. Thank you for the lovely memories captured.

TK is awesome. He was on time, speaks perfect English, and has a very cool vibe. The two villages we visited were impressively built and beautiful to walk among. The photographs we received had great composition and will be used to remember this Japan trip forever. TK also recommended one of the best meals of our trip, which was soba along a green river landscape. I would recommend.
