Weddings

I offer full-day packages to capture your special day with your loved ones. If you are unfamiliar with Kyoto or need help planning and setting up your wedding, I can help you find the perfect place, create a custom plan & theme for your event & photos, even take care of the details, like catering & stays. All you have to do is get in touch.

 
 

Proposals

Kyoto is one of the most romantic cities in the world and coming here is often a long-term dream for those that do. I can’t think of a better place to declare one’s love and ask someone to go on a new adventure together. If you’re like me, and that sounds perfect, let me help.

I know this city so well that we can find a perfect, beautiful place, one that is private, a new discovery. Tell me how you envision it and I will create the scene.

I can do day-long photo tours, with the surprise ending, or short few-hour shoots to help capture this perfect moment. Let’s talk.

Not in Kyoto? no problem! I can also go to see you wherever you are

Excellent experience with Javier, makes you feel in a space of trust conducive to the best photos. Professionalism and kindness in one place. We liked the photos too much and in general, I highly recommend him. Super recommended! (translated from Spanish)

I met Javier on what I thought was a normal day of sightseeing in Gion. He was extremely professional, personable and knowledgeable - which was affirmed when I found out that my fiancé had been working with Javier to plan a surprise proposal! We couldn't be happier about the quality of photos and our experience working with Javier, particularly on such a happy, personal and memorable occasion.

Javi was an exceptional photographer for our family shoot in Osaka. He knew the area very well and was able to catch great shots in some hidden areas. We received our pictures quickly and were so impressed by the quality. He caught our 1-year-old daughter smiling in so many shots. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a personable and professional photographer in Japan. He also spoke English fluently.

Our tour with Javier was honestly one of the best [Photo] tours I have ever taken in all of my travels across the globe.
