Photo Trips Reviews – Real Stories from Happy Travelers

I had my photoshoot with Yosuke and it was great. He was down to earth and easy going, making the shoot go smoothly. If you’re looking for some cinematic shots, check out Yosuke and what he has to offer!

Mehdi is a great professional. I can definitely say that he made me feel at ease and went beyond the call of duty. The photos are great, and a beautiful memory of my trip to Japan. Highly recommend!

I booked a photoshoot with Kevin during my trip to Tokyo, and it was one of the best decisions I made! I’ve always loved taking photos of the places I visit, but I never had any great pictures of myself. Taking selfies just doesn’t compare to the quality and artistry of a professional photo.

From the start, Kevin was incredibly friendly and gave good directions . He gave clear and helpful instructions on how to pose.
The pictures perfectly captured the essence of my time in Tokyo. For anyone traveling who wants a truly special souvenir and beautiful photos of themselves, I can’t recommend Kevin enough. It’s a fantastic experience, and the results are something you’ll treasure forever.

Booked this session last minute a night before, and it ended up being one of my highlights on a 3 week trip. Not only did our pictures come out amazing, but Chris was also real fun to be around and made sure we got that look we were looking for in our photos. Our session almost felt like a guided tour with the amount of history and fun facts Chris dropped on us, definitely hitting him up again if I’m ever back in the area. Can’t recommend him enough.

We were a bit nervous taking our first photoshoot together but Chris made it very fun and easy!!! He took us on a tour of side streets and shared stories about Japan life that we wouldn’t have known if it weren’t for our time together. Photos came out super cool! Would highly recommend Chris if you’re looking for someone who has an eye for artistic and creative shots without feeling so forced 🙂 !!!

It was an awesome experience working with Josh! I had a fun time taking beautiful pictures that will make this memorable trip last forever. I definitely recommend this for any traveler looking to get some great shots of their trip. Very professional, considerate, and talented. Thank you again!!

I had an absolutely exceptional experience with Photo Trips Japan! I booked the same day, and within just two hours we were already having the photoshoot. Mehdi was incredible, his professionalism, hospitality, and genuine care made the whole experience unforgettable. The service went above and beyond my expectations, and the photos turned out beautifully. I highly recommend Photo Trips to anyone traveling in Japan who wants to capture their memories in the best way possible. Thank you so much to Mehdi and the Photo Trips team! Venunye

Had a great time doing my photoshoot with Aki!
He surely knows how to make yourself feels comfortable (I am super awkward when it comes to having my photo taken 😅), however Aki was great in giving out instructions and makes me feel at ease.
The photos he had taken makes me felt like I was a supermodel just for that day, and I can’t express enough thanks to Aki for making my bucket list wish of having a professional photoshoot session a reality 🤗

Kevin is a very professional photographer. He knows the best locations and is always striving for perfection.

Had a great shoot with Marvin. He took me to some awesome locations I would’ve never found on my own. He paid attention to detail and was very open to ideas I had as well as giving me info on Japan. 10/10 great experience

Had an excellent experience with Kevin. We had our honeymoon shoot at Shibuya, He was very quick and kind.

I’ve never done a pro photoshoot but thanks to Marvin who made our photo session for my birthday fun and easy and taught me how to pose for amazing shots. Shinjuku is already very lit and colorful at night and he did a great job using these lights and colors in his photos effectively. Thank you!

Just finished our session today, Kevin is such a great guy, and an amazing photographer! He knows how to lead a photoshoot, and is very creative.

I’m so glad I booked this experience. Mehdi made me feel at ease and made the whole experience fun. He knew the places to go and get the best pictures and was great at directing me in a great way how to pose in a really natural way. I’d 100% recommend and only hope he can expand to more cities where I plan to visit.

I would like to thank Mehdi for his incredible professionalism and patience. Even though I was slightly late, he managed the session with calm and kindness. Thanks to him, the photoshoot in Shinjuku went wonderfully, and I left with beautiful memories. His ability to make you feel at ease and capture amazing moments truly makes a difference. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a talented and caring photographer!

Josh is very amazing! Whole photoshoot process is enjoyable even during somewhat hot summer day.
Results are delivered swiftly and the photos were also of high quality.
Thank you for making my short trip memorable. Would love to book Josh in future when I visit Korea again.

I recently had a photoshoot in Shinjuku, Tokyo with Kevin, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations. From the start, he was incredibly friendly, easy to talk to, and made the shoot flow naturally. This was my first solo photoshoot, a birthday gift to myself, and Kevin made it memorable.

He has a sharp eye for lighting, angles, and finding the right spots away from the crowds. His guidance was professional yet relaxed, helping me feel comfortable while capturing superb photos — truly beyond what I imagined.

The results speak for themselves: I’ve had countless friends reach out, impressed by the shots and asking for his contact. If you’re in Tokyo and want photos that capture both you and the city in the best light, Kevin is the one to book. When I’m back I’m definitely contacting him again.

Jayson was very professional for our engagement photo session at Shinjuku Gyoen National Park. He helped me choose the location and was very through in answering my questions. He showed up early, ready to go, and made the process easy. He gave clear instructions, which helped me feel comfortable. Jayson paid attention to details and guided us well. He delivered the final photos quickly, and we were thrilled with the results. We really appreciated his work and would recommend Jayson to anyone looking for an excellent photographer for any event they’re looking for in Tokyo!

I had an amazing photoshoot experience with Mehdi in Shinjuku! He was very professional, easygoing, and made the whole session really fun. Mehdi guided us through the best spots, shared creative ideas, and captured the atmosphere of Tokyo perfectly. The photos turned out absolutely stunning, better than I could have imagined. If you’re visiting Tokyo and want memorable pictures beyond just selfies, I highly recommend booking a shoot with him. Truly a 10/10 experience!

I had a wonderful photo session in Tokyo with my wife, and I want to sincerely thank Kevin for his outstanding professionalism. He was extremely patient, creative, and full of brilliant ideas that made the experience both fun and memorable. The photos turned out beautifully, and we truly appreciate his dedication and talent. Highly recommended!

Mehdi is amazing! We were able to book on short notice (same day) and gave clear instructions on where to meet. He’s very personable and took great videos with a fish eye lens that I requested. He also is very knowledgeable about Tokyo and showed up around so we got a nice tour. Highly highly recommend him. Mehdi, thanks again!

It was very fun. The time went so fast! The places Mehdi selected were very cool and off the beaten track. I love the results of the pictures too. Totally recommended!

Getting photos taken by Mehdi on Photo Trips was such a fun and unforgettable experience. He has this amazing way of making you feel comfortable in front of the camera, so even if you’re not used to being photographed, you’ll feel completely comfortable with him. As we explored some truly stunning spots in Tokyo, he not only guided me through the best poses but also shared little tips about the locations and local culture. The whole shoot felt more like a casual stroll with a friend who just happens to be insanely talented with a camera. The final photos captured both the beauty of Tokyo and my genuine joy in the moment. I’ll treasure them forever.

The photo shoot with Daria was absolutely incredible! We got so many amazing pictures. She took so much time for us and gave us excellent guidance.

The photoshoot with Kevin was absolutely incredible. He is a true professional, who’s ready to guide you, help you and who’s committed to get the best pictures possible. He brought me to the best places for a night shoot and had his own vision. It was the best experience I could wish for ! The photos are amazing and have exceeded my expectations. Would recommend booking him for great pictures and a cool experience !

Marvin was great, although I got lost in the station he was able to find me. He gives great direction and made the experience feel comfortable and effortless. 10 out of 10 recommend.

Kevin was amazing. Took us to photoshoot in modern tokyo and ancient streets. Complied with our requests and was very helpful in making us feel comfortable while shooting. Our kids had a great time with this experience and with Kevin. Thank you! Highly recommend

I highly recommend the photoshoot and would do it again with Josh anytime! He had great tips and knew exactly where to find beautiful, quiet spots to take photos. He’s very professional and brought out the best in you, even if you’re not photogenic! The photo results are beautiful, and I’ll always have a lovely keepsake to commemorate the day! 😀

Just done a shotting with Anatoly. The photographer truly captured my vision with such care and creativity, making the experience unforgettable. The pictures turned out stunning, and I’m so grateful for his talent. I’ll definitely reach out to him again for my next special moment!

Josh did an amazing job with my engagement proposal! I definitely recommend him. Professional and personable!

Absolutely Amazing Experience!

I had a photoshoot at Gyeongbokgung Palace today, and it was truly one of the highlights of my trip! Josh was incredibly kind, professional, and clearly knows the area inside and out. Since it was a scorching hot day, he thoughtfully planned most of the shoot in shaded spots, which made a huge difference in comfort and energy. 🫶

The photos turned out exceptional—beautifully composed and perfectly capturing the atmosphere of the palace. I couldn’t be happier with the results!

Highly, highly recommend! I’ll definitely be booking again when I return to South Korea—this time with friends. 😊📸🇰🇷

Josh is a fantastic photographer. He photographed our wedding at a palace in Seoul. We had a fantastic time and had a wonderful time. I’m thrilled we received beautiful photos and videos ✨😍. We have a wonderful souvenir from our trip ✨😍. I 100% recommend him!

Evgenia is an amazing photographer who will find an approach to everyone and take wonderful pictures for you. As a professional photographer, she ensures that time flies by and you have fun while capturing the emotions and atmosphere of Tokyo in her amazing photos. Highly recommended!❤️

This is the photography look I was looking for my boyfriend and I! We are huge fans of K-drama. Jack is so talented. He was able to capture very unique and artistic photos of us. He is organized and knows the best location for photos. Thank you ❤️ We have beautiful memories of our trip.

It was a great photo shoot with Josh highly recommend to all 👍🏽

I booked jimu a month ahead of my trip to Tokyo and he maintained contact all the way with me. Initially he almost couldn’t make it on the day itself but he surprised me by turning up. He chose his spots around Shibuya well and took really great photos of me for the night photo shoot. Thank you Jimu!

Kevin came through with some DOPE photos, I didn’t even know I could look this good! He was very personable and helpful since I’ve never done a photo shoot before. Highly recommend you book with him, communication was great and had the photos over super quick. Next time you’re in Tokyo, definitely book with Kevin – you will not regret it!

I had the most incredible time with Anatoly during my street photography session in Seoul on May 26, 2025. As someone who is usually quite shy in front of the camera, I was a bit nervous at first, but Anatoly instantly made me feel comfortable and at ease, bringing out my most natural expressions.

What I loved most was how effortlessly fun the whole experience was. It didn’t feel like a formal shoot at all; it felt like a joyful walk with a friend who just happens to be a very talented photographer!

Tyler was an absolute pleasure to work with. He assisted with the kimono rental for us and offered multiple locations to pick from for the photos. The whole experience was really chill, we loved every second of it. Thank you!

Jimu was absolutely brilliant to work with, we loved the whole experience! He was very patient with us, and it felt really organic and not forced. I would definitely recommend this experience if you are looking for a unique memory of your visit.
