We had such a wonderful experience working with Coo for our pregnancy announcement shoot. The entire process felt so natural and easy – from the moment we arrived, he made us feel comfortable and captured the most beautiful, candid moments. His communication was always clear and prompt, and he delivered our photos exactly when he promised. I would highly recommend him if anyone visiting Kyoto.

We had an incredible experience with Coo. He was warm, friendly, and we immediately felt at ease walking around with him and taking photos. He quickly delivered our stunning previews and delivered our full gallery right on time. I’m so glad that we selected him to photograph memories of our trip to Kyoto and announcement of our pregnancy! Book Coo, he’s worth every penny!

We found Coo through my sisters, who had done photoshoots with him in Japan, so when we were visiting Kyoto for our baby moon, we knew we wanted to take some photos with Coo as well! We had a wonderful experience. From the start, coordination was smooth and easy. The shoot itself was relaxed and fun, and Coo made us feel completely at ease. He was also incredibly generous with local knowledge, sharing restaurant recommendations and matcha places to visit. The turnaround time was also extremely quick – Coo took some pictures on our phone during the shoot, which gave us a little preview! The final images were beautiful and captured exactly the feeling we were hoping for with such a special milestone. Highly recommend working with Coo if you’re visiting Japan and want great photos (and food tips) from someone who truly knows and loves the area!

We spend a lovely early morning with Coo for our baby moon photoshooting in Arayashima area. As an expecting mom, I’m grateful for Coo’s professionalism and warm hospitality offered. He is punctual to our appointment at 5am and even shared his live location to us so we know exactly where to meet. He is also very polite with well spoken English. He also shown great respect and cultural acceptance to us from a different background and we had very pleasant chat while commuting to different shooting spots. We would recommend our friends to use his photography service should they be visiting Japan.

Our photoshoot with Coo was nothing short of amazing! My husband and I visited Japan for the first time and we wanted to create memories celebrating our baby moon and his birthday. Among the photographers to choose from, I was adamant with choosing Coo despite him not being available on my original intended date. Not only is he highly rated but his good eye to detail shows in his work. We were very pleased with our experience overall and results of our shoot. Coo responded very promptly to any questions we had. He prepared for the shoot with ideal timing and locations, and provided us with tips to help us feel more comfortable. He was also very patience and accommodating with us as I was very pregnant which made climbing some slopes challenging. Coo also coached us how to pose and was very considerate to let us do some poses of our own. Another perk was all the mini history lessons and a list of recommended activities and popular/local food spots (in the prefectures we were visiting) Coo gave from his background as a expert tour guide. One of the best part was ending our photo session in front of Koyasu Pagoda which translates to safe delivery, a thoughtful surprise by Coo himself. Please don’t hesitate to choose Coo, you will have a great time and your pictures will turn out stunning.
