Offered in: English

We'll spend the majority of the time in the Yurakcho / Shimbashi area as this is one of my most favourite places to shoot street photography. If we book the evening tour (after 17:00) on weekdays you'll get the unique salaryman experience you won't find any where else in the world and we can dive into the topics of Japanese work and life culture and what makes this particular area as well as several areas like it thrive. We might even hit up a rooftop ;)

What to expect

In 2015 I lived out a longtime dream to come to Japan. That's also when I decided to buy a 'real' camera for the first time hoping to get some great travel photos as a keepsake. Fast forward several years, many stories and I live here now and I haven't stopped taking photos since. I'm now a professional photographer making a living off of what I love to do and I want to show you this magical city of Tokyo and how to photograph it.

I also run one of the largest Meetup groups for creatives in the city so connecting with people is huge passion of mine.

This is NOT just a tour. Of course, you're going to see some places you will never find on your own but I've been photographing some of these places for years from unique view points and I want to pass on that knowledge to you.

We're going to discuss basic topics like settings, lenses and other gear including LED's, prisms, etc. But we'll also cover more advanced topics including street shooting philosophies, what to look for, framing and how to use the things in your environment to take your photos from ordinary to real art you can be proud of.

Have a look at my online portfolio at denizdemir.photos and I hope to see you in Tokyo!
