Reviews
We had a wonderful photoshoot experience with Kayo during the cherry blossom in Kenroku-en garden. The photos turned out amazing, Kayo is very professional and gave us 110+ photos and edited 10 photos to have more vibrant colors. Highly recommended!
Amazing photography, also went above and beyond on the 35C day by giving us wet towels and water while we had our photoshoot. Would definitely book again. Amazing experience and location.
It was a good overall experience. After you book, staff from @holiday_travel_japan_en will contact you via WhatsApp and plan the photoshoot with the photographer. They are very friendly, responsive to messages and flexible with changes. My assigned photographer @kayo_photo_studio81 took very beautiful photos and very patient with me, being my first time with a professional photographer. Definitely one of the many highlights of my Japan trip.
Nice experience with Holiday Travel company.
I am disappointed with the quality of the photos. The photos feel like were taken by a random person with low quality camera; the angles and colour compositions were not good. My husband and I would have taken better photoes. Disappointed because: 1) we didn't take any family photo with my husband's phone camera as we trusted the photographer (instead of asking other people to take our photos) 2) what a waste of $300! The photos on the photographer's instagram were good; so that's why I trusted her :(. I hired lots of professional photographers in Canada (with similar price range or lower) and the results were way superior.
