5.00We had such a wonderful experience doing our photoshoot in Kyoto with Satsuki and her team. From the very beginning, she was incredibly professional and guided us through the entire process, making everything feel easy and seamless. From the makeup and clothing to the posing, her team assisted us every step of the way so we didn’t have to worry about anything except smiling and enjoying the moment. What we appreciated the most was how natural everything felt. There was never any pressure, and the whole experience was relaxed and enjoyable. Our child was especially happy, and you can really see the ease and genuine joy in his smile in the photos. We’re so grateful to Satsuki and her team for making this such a memorable experience for our family. It was truly special, and we would absolutely love to work with them again in the future. ✨📸

A Dream Come True: My Geisha Photoshoot Experience at Hagoromoya

5.00It would take me forever to fully explain how amazing my experience at Hagoromoya was! It had always been my dream to dress up in a kimono, do a photoshoot, and feel like a real geisha. Thanks to Satsuki and her wonderful team, that dream finally came true. Satsuki is an incredibly professional photographer. You can truly see the dedication and passion she has for her work, and she makes every photoshoot feel special. Watching how much she enjoys what she does makes the whole experience even more memorable. The studio is very clean and professional, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. During the dressing and makeup process, I really felt like a true geisha. The team carefully made sure everything was perfect at every moment, from the wig decorations and kimono to guiding me on how to place my hands and pose to create the most authentic look. If you visit Kyoto, you absolutely should not miss this experience. It will stay in your memory forever and it is worth every single yen! I highly recommend Hagoromoya, and I guarantee you won’t regret it. Congratulations to the Hagoromoya team for the incredible work and love you put into what you do!
A “must do” experience in Japan

5.00Our kimono photo studio experience at Hagoromoya was definitely one of the highlights of our Japan trip. Satsuki and her team took very good care of us from start to finish. They were friendly, attentive, detail oriented and did everything they can to make our time and experience memorable. It is definitely a wonderful story to tell our children and grandchildren and we have beautiful pictures to show them. For visitors of Japan, we absolutely recommend that you include the kimono dress up experience in your itinerary and do it with Hagoromoya.
