5.00I had an amazing experience taking photos with Marvin while celebrating my birthday in Tokyo. He helped me capture some really special moments from my trip, and I truly appreciate the effort he put into making the experience enjoyable. Marvin was very friendly, easy to work with, and made the entire photoshoot feel relaxed and fun. We took a lot of great photos, and he made sure I was comfortable throughout the process. If you are visiting Tokyo and want to capture some memorable moments from your trip, I would definitely recommend working with him. I had a great time and would absolutely do it again.

5.00Marvin captured our family (including 2 kids under 2) with perfection. He did not have a compliant participant and yet, he brought out the joy in all of us and gave us pictures that will not only allow us to remember our trip for a lifetime but also captured a special moment in time in the life of our babies. I could not be happier or more grateful to him.
Loose, professional and great photo

5.00During my stay in Japan I had a photo shoot with Marvin in Shinjuku in the evening. The photos have become really good. Even without experience, you immediately feel comfortable because Marvin knows what he is doing and accompanies you loosely through the shoot. It's more like a relaxed walk through the neighborhood but with really cool photos at the end. Clear recommendation👍
Worth it

5.00Marvin is such an amazing top tier photographer. Equipped with 8 years of experience. He knows exactly what you want and he delivers it to you. I highly recommend booking a photo shoot with Marvin if you want good high quality photos.
Phenomenal experience!

Engagement Photoshoot Shibuya Crossing

5.00Marvin was super quick and efficient with his shots. He definitely knew the ins and outs of tokyo/ and angles for shibuya crossing. He immediately makes you feel comfortable like a friend and overall it was a super fun photoshoot. I’d recommend him 10/10 and he never gives raw photos so expect them to look spectacular. Thanks Marvin looking forward to them!
Great pictures and great company

5.00I had a lot of fun on this photoshoot snd really loved the pictures! I booked this experience because I was getting fatigued doing everything solo and wanted someone to guide me through, but to also get some nice pictures for my trip thay weren't just selfies. I really enjoyed my time during it as well as the outcome
Great Experience!

5.00My now husband and I have been dreaming of taking an international trip to Tokyo for our honeymoon for years, and it finally happened! Because I love photos and because I’m not a huge fan of the selfie, I thought it would be worthwhile to find a local photographer to document some of our time together in Tokyo. Marvin was the best and we’d highly recommend him to anyone else looking for great photos, a knowledgeable guide, and an all around friendly and welcoming person to guide them during the photo/tour process! Marvin was very responsive and communicative prior to our arrival in Japan (we live in California), and gave us good meet up details/instructions. We had no issues finding Marvin at the meet up spot, and he was prompt (early, in fact!). If you’re considering booking a photographer to capture some of those iconic Tokyo spots, Marvin is an excellent choice. We’re so glad we did!
