I had the best time! I wish I could give more stars! I had such a fun time-the staff really took the time to personalize the photo shoot for us, from the kimonos we wore, the hair and makeup and the photos we took. They made the whole experience fun, relaxing and just amazing. I loved the kimonos-they were all beautiful and so intricate! You could tell that they really wanted us to wear them properly and have both the kimonos and us look good in the pictures! Highly recommend this place!!

Unforgettable experience.
My husband and I have had an unforgettable experience with the Hagoromoya team. The team is very professional and you can tell they like what they do. We understood each other perfectly in English and enjoyed the day a lot. I was delighted with the hair and makeup, and also with the garments, which are of high quality. We took home a beautiful memory and some spectacular photos. Thank you very much to the whole team!

The best photo session of our lives!
An incredible experience from start to finish. The professionalism and hospitality of the entire Hagoromoya team were exceptional, but what surprised us most was the genuine interest they showed in ensuring that each of the participants enjoyed the session to the fullest, taking care of every detail so that we had a good time.
The photos and the video turned out beautiful, and you can see the care with which they work. Without a doubt, we would return to them for another session in other locations in Kyoto. 100% recommended.
Thank you, Hagoromoya, for making our visit to Japan an unforgettable memory!

Highlight of our trip!
Our Hagoromoya kimono photoshoot was one of our favorite things we did during our two weeks in Japan! We absolutely love our photos, and the entire process was so much fun! Satsuki is a very talented photographer. We had a group of 6 including 2 grandparents and 3 preteen/teen boys. Getting dressed in the many layers of a beautiful kimono is an experience in itself. Everything was very professional and went very smoothly. It was an amazing experience and a highlight of our trip! Thank you so much Satsuki and the entire Hagoromoya team!

10/10!!!
This whole experience was truly amazing. The owner was extremely helpful and accommodating with specific requests and with the booking process. The studio was clean and comfortable and the entire team was professional/kind, making us feel at home. The value for the money was extraordinary! I can't say enough wonderful things about this experience and I'm so thankful I chose this company for this photoshoot. Having the pictures and videos that encompass the culture and our time in Kyoto is priceless. Thank you!

The photography session was a highly enjoyable and positive experience, facilitated by the clear communication in English and the amiable demeanor of the photographer, dresser, and all assisting personnel.
If you are in Kyoto, this is an experience not to be missed.
It offers a truly memorable experience for the entire trip.

An experience of a lifetime!
While we were in Kyoto i could not resist but book a photo shoot with my partner to get photographed in Geisha and Samourai outfits. One of the pictures will be used for our wedding invitation ! What a fabulous experience that i can only recommend. It is not cheap but such good value for money. The service and the team led by Satsuki was exceptional! The Samourai armour and my kimono absolutely exquisite… and the pictures… amazing! And wr had a fabulous time. Satsuki puts you at ease in front of the camera and gives you tips.. don’t wait any further :-)

WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND TO EVERYONE
Had an amazing experience at Hagoromoya! The staff were incredibly friendly and professional — both the photographer and the person who did my hair, makeup, and dressed me in the kimono were welcoming and helpful throughout the whole process. It was such a great memory to make while in Kyoto.
They also offer wonderful extra services, like filming the entire process and taking additional photos, which is honestly worth so much more than what you pay. Another huge plus: since there is an indoor option, you don't have to worry about weather or being jostled by crowds outdoors while taking photos in your kimono — it was super hot the day I went, but the studio made it a comfortable, stress-free experience.
I'd recommend this place to everyone — families, couples, and individuals of all ages and genders!
