The photographer went above and beyond in the hot sun, carrying props and taking us to great photo spots that only local knows. We’ve had many photo sessions done and I have to say this one was the best! Highly recommend it.”

English, Spanish, and Japanese are offered.

“We wanted to remember our first time in Osaka, so we booked this photo shoot with Marco via GetYourGuide. He arrived on time at the meetup point and was very warm and friendly. The photo shoot was like a walking tour, and we learned so much about Dotonbori and Amemura in a very short span of time. He patiently guided us through the each shot, and he showed the raw shots to make sure it’s also something we liked. We truly enjoyed this activity and wouldn’t hesitate to book him again next time. We’re currently waiting for the processed photos and we’re pretty sure they’re awesome 😎 - Kate and…”
