Framed by Fuji, Lit by Autumn, Bound for Always

カップルフォト 山梨県

From the very beginning, what drew us to you was your soft, film-like editing style and the way your work truly feels like a “story in time.” When we were searching for a photographer, we weren’t just looking for beautiful photos, we wanted something cinematic, dreamy, and emotionally authentic. Your portfolio stood out because of how naturally you capture intimacy between couples. It never felt staged or forced; instead, it felt like you were preserving real moments as they unfolded.

We loved how your photos felt like still frames from a film; quiet, meaningful, and full of emotion. That aligned perfectly with my vision for our engagement. We wanted something candid and story-driven, where we could simply be ourselves while someone documented the connection we share. After seeing your work, we genuinely felt that you understood that kind of storytelling better than anyone else. It felt like the perfect match for what I was hoping to capture.

Visiting Mt. Fuji was such a special experience for us. Every time we come back to Japan, it feels meaningful, but this trip - especially getting engaged - made it even more memorable. The setting was breathtaking. The fall foliage, the crisp air, and the peaceful atmosphere created the perfect backdrop for the kind of dreamy, cinematic shoot we had envisioned.

We loved walking around, taking in the scenery, and just soaking in the moment together. It didn’t feel rushed, it felt intentional and surreal, like we were stepping into a film scene of our own story. Luckily the weather turned out perfect!

The photos and memory are something that we will cherish.

Overall, we truly think you did a fantastic job. From start to finish, the experience exceeded our expectations. You were professional, kind, and so easy to talk to. It honestly felt like we were doing a session with a good friend. That comfort made all the difference.

You gave us direction when we needed it, but also allowed us space to just be ourselves. That balance is something we really appreciated. We never felt stiff or overly posed. Instead, we felt relaxed and present with each other, which is exactly what we had hoped for. You created an environment where we could express our love naturally, and that authenticity really shows in the photos.

Most importantly, you captured our engagement and this special moment in a way that feels genuine and timeless. The photos reflect our connection, soft, intimate, and cinematic, just like we envisioned. Looking through them feels like reliving the day all over again.

We honestly couldn’t have picked a better photographer, and we are so grateful for the experience and the outcome. Thank you for telling our story so beautifully.
