FAQ

FAQ

Can we shoot if we do not know how to pose?

Yes. We guide you through natural movement and interaction instead of stiff posing.

Which season is best?

Spring works for sakura, summer for coastlines and green spaces, autumn for foliage and streets, winter for Hokkaido snow.

Do you support Chinese, Japanese, English and Korean?

The website supports all four languages. Please confirm the actual service language when booking.

Can we shoot for only half a day?

Yes. Half-day sessions work best within one city or nearby locations. Full-day and multi-day sessions are better for combining Hokkaido, Otaru, Kyoto, Osaka and Nara routes.

What happens if it rains or snows?

We adjust timing, route and indoor-outdoor balance around the weather. Hokkaido snow, Kyoto lanes and Osaka streets can each have backup plans.
