Private Tokyo Photo Tour at Night
What your day looks like
Capture streaking car trails set against a futuristic Tokyo backdrop, or capture the beauty of Senso-Ji temple after dark. During the Tokyo Night Photo Tour, we will have the opportunity to explore the futuristic setting of Shinjuku. Neon lights, skyscrapers, constantly bustling no matter what the hour. Or we can take things a little calmer around Asakusa and shoot the Buddhist temple Senso-ji and the quiet streets. We know the best spots in Tokyo after dark, and we can teach you how to capture them all superbly. It doesn't matter what level of skill you are, our photography tours in Tokyo are private, so it will only be you and your party, and the photographer. This means we don't need to talk over your head or explain things you already know. Instead, we craft the perfect tour designed just for you and make sure you walk away with new skills, perspectives, and great nighttime photos. A typical night might involve going over: Night photography technique: making sure to get a sharp, clear image at night Camera knowledge: Manual or Aperture mode? Single point? Or multi point focus? How to use lines, frames, and luminosity to enhance your photos. Getting to the best spot to get that angle. Reviewing your photography. We will start our tour with a coffee. During this time we can go over technical details, help answer and questions you might have, and then talk about what you would like to get out of the tour. We can craft an itinerary that will be built around your level and your interests and then head out into the night. We don't mind if you bring along some of your friends, three of them for the same price. Anything more than that will become too large, and we might not be able to give quality attention to detail we like. We want to make sure to work at your pace.

What travelers are saying
My client absolutely loved this experience. She mentioned that the guide had scouted the areas in advance so he knew how to get the best shots. She learned so much that I am looking for similar experiences all over the world to recommend to my clients who have any interest in photography and/or social media.
