I am a photographer based in Tokyo with a deep love for nature that began in my youth. Growing up in Hong Kong, a city often referred to as a "concrete jungle," I was naturally drawn to spending as much time outdoors as possible. From hiking in the mountains of eastern Japan to skiing in Hokkaido (北海道) and diving in the waters of Okinawa (沖縄) and the Izu Islands (伊豆諸島), I’ve sought to immerse myself in nature.
My photography primarily focuses on the connection between humans and nature, as well as architectural structures. Having lived in Japan for over two decades, my experience as a photographer allows me to reveal Japan's lesser-known gems and capture your unique moments. I am fluent in Cantonese, English, Japanese, and Mandarin.

您好, 我是攝影師 Fred, 出生於香港, 已在日本居住20年以上，
與妻子兩人共同生活。喜歡健行，潛水與大自然四季。
接觸人像攝影是從90年代的膠片相機時代開始。
並於2007年Bic Camera舉辦的攝影比賽中獲獎。
擅於拍攝人物，情侶與自然風景，服務範圍廣泛。
🌸 I am fluent in Cantonese (廣東話), English, Japanese, and can speak some Mandarin (國語).
🌸 We can plan our shoot in advance via WhatsApp, Line, or email. Online meetings are available only for bookings of at least 2 hours of shooting.
🌸 I work with professional and bilingual Kimono rental services and hair & makeup artists. Please feel free to contact me if you need any recommendations.
🌸 If your shoot is longer than 4 hours, I may be able to provide a "backup day" option. This means that if the weather forecast predicts rain two days before the scheduled date, we can switch the shoot to the backup day. Please inquire about the additional fee for this option.
🌸 In general, the earlier you book with us, the more FLEXIBILITY we can offer. We understand that your time in Japan is precious! The longer the shoot, the more planning is needed to ensure we create great memories together. For example, some popular locations require photography permits that must be applied for several months in advance.
