An intimate garden wedding · Kyoto
Wedding stories, quietly told.
A day that passes.
A feeling that stays.
For the big feelings.
The little in-between moments.
And
the beautifully real you.
More than how it looked. How it felt.
The way your hands find each other.
The laughter you didn’t
plan.
That’s where the story lives.
I’m Aiko, a wedding photographer with a soft spot for the
unscripted.
I make photographs that feel like memories — warm, honest, and
entirely yours.

02 / Hello. こんにちは。
A quiet presence.
An open heart.
I’m Aiko. A photographer, a Kyoto wanderer,
and a believer in the beauty of ordinary things.
Living in Kyoto has taught me to slow down. To notice the light on an old wooden doorway, the change of a season, the things that ask for nothing but your attention.
That’s how I approach your day, too. With gentle guidance when you need it and space to be yourselves when you don’t. I’ll be there for the beautiful portraits — and all the life happening in between.
with love, Aiko03 / Room to be yourselves
