Anyone who enjoys traveling loves capturing images from their adventures. Unfortunately, in most cases people are not photographers, and all they get are rather bad looking snapshots. If one travels alone they have to ask others to take photos of them, and if you are with someone, you will still have to ask a random person to photograph the two of you together. Traveling can be expensive, and Japan is probably one of the most expensive countries you could visit. Further, it is not that easy to get around without being able to speak Japanese, and easily find and access places, especially in Tokyo, which can be intimidating even for people who live in larger cities. If you plan on visiting Tokyo and wish to bring home travel photos that capture not just yourself standing looking stiff in front of a famous building, but want images that reflect the real atmosphere of the Metropolis with yourself seamlessly blending with the surroundings, or you want photos that will be cinematic or much more artistic and appealing in nature, photos that would be unique, then why not consider booking a professional photographer to assist you during your visit. Some things happen once in a lifetime, it is up to you to make them count.

I have a great appreciation for street photography. It is spontaneous, although not always, it is also very personal, and real. It is not posed or thought out, especially when compared to studio shots. On the other hand, I have this dilemma of invading people personal spaces, which is amplified if you shoot wit a wide angle lens. The wide angle lens creates depth, it brings you close to the scene, and lets the viewer "be there" with the photographer. On the other hand, I always feel like I a steeling someones privacy. I think this is why I love portraiture photography. It is like street photography but since the model knows that he or she will be photographed, there usually is natural resistance against being photographed, unless we are talking professional models. And the hardest part of portrait photography is to evoke natural emotions through building a connection between the photographer and the model. It is true that portrait photographers are skilled psychologists, who can get through all masks and barriers straight to the core of a person they photograph. This is what can be bypassed in street photography, through the element of surprise. Anyways, here is a shot that I took near Yakitori Alley in Yurakucho, during a photowalk with a client.

A place where you can find it all, from elevated glass panel walkways that are light up at night, to suspended automated trains, steel and glass futuristic structures, the rush of metropolis, gazillion of perspectives and angles, and countless spots to shoot both at night and during the day. Some buildings are famous and iconic, like the Nakagin Capsule Tower, and some are new and just amazing. Walking around dont forget to look up, so you wont miss cool views like this one.
