A blast! - We booked a photographer for our two kids, 14 and 19 year old. We had such a great experience. The whole process was smooth, and the photographer made everyone feel comfortable right away. He was patient, friendly, and really knew how to capture natural moments without it feeling forced. He was also very communicative and kind about changing the day of our shoot due to the rain, which we really appreciated. The photos turned out amazing and are something we’ll definitely treasure. It was such a fun and memorable experience for the kids too. Highly recommend if you’re looking to capture special moments while traveling!

Exceptional ! Perfect Sakura and Shinjuku shoots - I did two shoots with Mehdi (the first for the Sakura, the second in Shinjuku, Tokyo) and I highly recommend him. From the very first contact everything was smooth ; his ability to speak several languages prevents misunderstandings and makes planning easy. On the day, the meeting point instructions were clear and he was punctual to the minute. He knows how to put you at ease, guided me with poses and entertained me with anecdotes throughout the photo tour. Professionalism, great mood, and beautiful results . Thank you, Mehdi!

Super fun photo shoot - We booked a photo session with Mehdi and had a great time with him. He was very knowledgeable about the Japanese culture and took us to places we probably wouldn’t have found with our limited schedule including some traditional izakayas. Turnaround time to receive our photos was super fast and we are so happy with them. I highly recommend doing a photo shoot with Mehdi while you’re in Tokyo!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An unforgettable Tokyo experience — way more than just a photoshoot - booked this street photoshoot while visiting Tokyo and it ended up being one of the highlights of my entire trip. From start to finish, the experience was seamless and way more than I expected. The photographer (Mehdi) was incredibly responsive before the shoot — he helped me plan outfits, gave clear directions on where to meet, and made everything feel super easy and stress-free. Once we started, it honestly felt less like a photoshoot and more like exploring Tokyo with a friend who just happens to be insanely talented behind the camera. He guided me through different iconic spots around Shinjuku/Kabukicho and knew exactly how to capture the vibe of each location. Even if you’re not used to being in front of the camera, he makes you feel comfortable and natural — I completely forgot I was nervous after the first few minutes. What really stood out was his eye for detail and creativity. He turned simple streets and neon-lit alleys into cinematic, Instagram-worthy shots. The whole session was fun, relaxed, and actually boosted my confidence. And the photos… absolutely amazing. Easily some of my favorite pictures I’ve ever taken — they perfectly captured the energy of Tokyo. If you’re even considering this experience, just book it. Whether you’re solo, a couple, or with friends, it’s 100% worth it and gives you memories (and photos) you’ll keep forever.

Shinjuku flicks - I booked a photoshoot in Shinjuku with Mehdi and it was a great experience. Mehdi is very personable and offers quality conversation. I’d recommend this to anyone who wants an experienced photographer at a great price.

Incredible photo opportunity in the streets of Tokyo - We spent a photo shoot in Tokyo with Mehdi, and it was an amazing experience! Mehdi is not only very friendly, but also an outstanding professional in the field of photography. He took us to beautiful places and was able to guide us with talent to get perfect shots. The photos are simply sublime, and he sent them to us in record time.

Don’t book this photo shoot or with viator - This photographer is a complete fraud. He was a no show when we went to the confirmed location sent by Viator. We called and he said he had called us before and changed the location—-which we had never talked to this guy before. Even more disappointing is Viator won’t offer a refund or research the issue. Had to dispute it with our credit card. Won’t use Viator any more after several years of success. They don’t investigate the issue at all. We wasted two taxi rides and a lot of time and walked away wi the nothing. Their customer service is terrible.
