Your photographer
Meet Jannis
Hi, I'm Jannis, your photographer in Tokyo.
I want your photoshoot to feel less like posing for a camera and more like exploring Tokyo with someone who happens to know where and when to take great photos.
The goal is simple: a genuinely good memory of your time in Japan, and photographs that bring you straight back to it.
The experience
What a shoot with Jannis feels like
Better told by the people who have already done one.
Jannis was incredibly friendly and readily embraced our spontaneous ideas, implementing them professionally. We had a lot of fun, felt completely at ease – and the result is truly fantastic! We highly recommend booking this photoshoot. It's such a wonderful memory!

About Jannis
A little more about me
I'm originally from Switzerland and have called Tokyo home for the past few years. Working in photography and film has taken me all over the city, from places everyone knows to small streets most visitors would never come across.
Tokyo Moments grew out of something simple: I wanted visitors to leave Tokyo with photographs that actually feel like their trip, rather than a collection of posed pictures in famous locations.
When we're not taking photos, I'm always happy to share recommendations, help with Tokyo questions, or point you toward somewhere worth visiting next.
