Traveling as a couple, the hardest photos to get are the ones of you together. For a couple session in Tokyo, choose Standard or Extended: 1–4 people, and two people pay the same price as one. Here are locations, poses and outfit ideas for couples.
Note: Standard and Extended cover 1–4 people; dedicated couple and wedding packages are not offered yet.
Tokyo locations for couples
- Senso-ji + Sumida Park: Walk hand in hand along the Sumida River with Skytree behind you; cherry blossoms in spring
- Yanaka Ginza + Nezu Shrine: Nezu Shrine’s vermilion torii for more formal portraits, Yanaka’s lanes for relaxed walking shots
- Kiyosumi Gardens: The pond pavilion and stepping stones are calm and clean, perfect for soft, romantic shots
- Koishikawa Korakuen: Daisensui Pond and wooded paths give depth, with autumn leaves in season (portrait shoots need an advance application)
- Shibamata Taishakuten + approach street: The old dango shop street is great for snacking-and-strolling shots
Natural poses that don’t feel awkward
- Walking hand in hand: the photographer shoots from the front or side, so it looks natural
- One ahead of the other: one looks back at the other
- Side by side looking at the view: shots from behind or in profile
- Sharing food: buy dango on the Shibamata approach for natural interaction
- Foreheads together, fixing a collar: close half-body shots
Matching colors
- Light and dark shades of one color family, such as off-white with camel, or light blue with navy
- If one of you wears a pattern, the other wears a solid color
- Couple kimono photos: one darker and one lighter kimono adds depth
