Tokyo Portrait Photographer, Photographer in Tokyo

Hi, I’m Tia

I love photographing camera-shy clients into confident professionals who want to show their authentic selves.

@toptiaphotos

  • One thing I’ve learned as a portrait photographer in Tokyo: almost everyone shows up a little nervous. Hearing that those nerves disappear and turn into a genuinely fun, calm experience is the highest praise I could ask for.

Grateful for every single person who steps in front of my camera and trusts me! 

#toptia #toptiaportaits #photographerintokyo #photographer #tokyo
  • Whenever I have a portrait session, I try not to rush through poses or get too caught up in watching the clock.

I like taking the time to understand who you are, what you want your portraits to communicate, and making sure you feel comfortable throughout the experience. From updating your portfolio to building your personal brand or simply celebrating yourself, your vision is always my main focus.

I want you to walk away with portraits you love and an experience you genuinely enjoyed.

  • If a camera was pointed at you today, would you step up or step back? Tell me why in the comments!

You don’t need a “perfect” face, full makeup, or an idealized look to step in front of the lens. You deserve to be photographed for who you are, not who you think you’re supposed to be. Forget chasing celebrity standards. Capturing your real, authentic self is what truly matters.

  • When someone sees their portraits and says, “exactly what I asked for,” that means a lot. Behind a portrait that feels effortless is a process of listening, understanding and paying attention to the details that matter to you. 

We take the time to understand what you’re looking for and what you want your portraits to communicate, then bring that into the session through our direction, the way we work with you, and all the little details that make the experience feel personal.

If that sounds like the kind of photography experience you’re looking for, send us a message. We’d love to work with you.

  • Nervous about being in front of the camera? Here is our secret to coming out of your shell and actually enjoying your portrait experience in Tokyo:

Find your inspiration: Look through magazines, Pinterest, or online styles you love. 

Focus on your vision: Think about who you aspire to be in those images and what style speaks to you. 

Give yourself permission: Allow yourself to explore, be creative, and have fun with the process! When you shift the focus to exploring your creative vision, the camera jitters naturally melt away.

Work with a professional portrait photographer in Tokyo who makes you feel completely comfortable. Visit the link in our bio to book your session.

  • When was the last time you chose yourself? 
When was the last time you tried that thing you’ve been putting off? 
Did you wear that outfit you love instead of saving it for “somewhere special”? 
Have you added yourself to your daily to-do list lately? 
What about saying yes to something you really want to do, even though you’ve been hesitating? 

Sometimes, while we’re busy taking care of everything and everyone else, parts of us are pushed into the background. Maybe it’s time to bring some of those parts forward again. Try the thing you’ve been putting off, wear the outfit you love, make the plans you keep hesitating over and give yourself permission to take up space. 

And remember to be there for yourself too.
