Professional Headshots in Tokyo by TopTia Photography

Our photo sessions have more of a Western approach. We want to spend time helping and preparing each client for their session. Our goal is to make you feel comfortable and confident. Many clients are looking for headshots that show how professional, approachable, and authoritative they are in their current or upcoming roles. Our sessions allow you to give us feedback so you’re sure we have a solid look before our session is complete.

Actor’s and Model’s Headshot Photos

We offer headshot sessions for artists who wish to have a more dynamic look for their portfolio but are not too unique for their Japan-based agency or future agency. We also do headshots for outbound artists heading to the US.

Embassy + Official Diplomatic Headshot Photos

Tokyo is a central point for the State Department and diplomatic employees, ambassadors, and other diplomatic personnel. Professionally captured headshots including your country’s insignia, flag or head figures are a must for presenting your country’s representation on the eastern side of the global stage. We understand all rules for official portraits concerning the respective country’s flag use and positioning concerning the person in the photo.

Consistent Business Team Headshots

Creating consistent headshots for your team of 5, 20, or even 100 employees in your department or corporation is something we’ve had almost 7 years of experience with. We tailor a session to your needs and work together with a representative to create an efficient session balancing speed, convenience, and professionalism. Our team will keep an eye on the small details that matter most to your branding and image. We are also flexible with handling global corporations’ photography guidelines if your company or department has been given one. We are open to negotiating prices for teams larger than 20 people.

Location

We are completely flexible in terms of location. We can have our session at one of our three studios in Tokyo, Nakano, Aoyama, or Kawaguchi. If neither location fits the look you’re aiming for, we can source other locations that fit your needs better. We also have outdoor headshot sessions or sessions at your place of work or home. Our goal is to be flexible for you and the look you are aiming for. If you still are not sure what you would like to do, we can tailor a session for you.
