We had a great experience with Shogo for our son’s first birthday! He was professional, punctual, and really easy to work with. He did a great job capturing both candid moments and group photos, and we loved how natural and fun the pictures turned out. He was also very responsive, got the edited photos to us on time, and his rates were very reasonable. Overall, we’re really happy with the photos and would definitely recommend Shogo!

We're so happy we hired Shogo for our wedding cocktail party. The restaurant was dark, but our photos were not. He took the initiative to take candid photos all night without us even realizing it. We received all photos in color and black&white. Shogo was kind, professional, and responsive. Highly recommend.
We had an amazing experience. The photographer was punctual, professional, and made the whole process easy. The pictures turned out beautiful, great quality and attention to detail. Would absolutely book again.
Shogo is an incredible photographer! We hired him for my husbands birthday and the pictures turned out so beautiful!! He was so easy to work with and flexible. I can’t wait to work him again. Highly recommend!!!
Shogo was amazing! He showed up at our ceremony site early, took our ideas well, and was so attentive during our event, ensuring these moments will last forever! I would definitely hire him again!
Shogo was absolutely great to work with. He effortlessly directed us through multiple locations while capturing a large variety of stunning, natural photos in a short time. We couldn’t be happier with the experience and the results!
Shogo was incredibly easy to work with, communicative, and ensured that we got the photos that we wanted. He was able to get wonderful pictures from a very active crowd (that didn't always follow direction) and was able to get great shots within a limited space.
So happy we found Shogo. Needed last minute holiday/family photos and he was able to accommodate. The end result was also just what I wanted. Thank you Shogo!

Shogo did a family and maternity shoot for us this fall season. He was an excellent, responsive communicator and always understanding for any requests or changes. He provided location recommendations and suggestions. During the shoots, he promptly arrived. He had great ideas, suggests posses and worked with our toddler and elder parents. Great experience, great photos and great value. We plan on having him for our family holiday shoot.
Shogo was really great to work with. He was both adaptive and encouraging of us doing a more organic photoshoot. Overall, great photos and delivered in a very short time!
We had a fantastic experience with Shogo. He communicated promptly, arrived at the venue on time, made us feel very comfortable while taking pictures, and captured emotions and moments beautifully at our City Hall ceremony followed by a session at Palace of Fine Arts. Shogo is professional and friendly. I highly recommend Shogo's photography if you are looking for a reliable, talented, and punctual photographer in the Bay Area. Would work with him again! Thanks, Shogo!!
Super friendly, patient and open to suggestions. Photos came out great. Would book again.
We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer to capture our wedding day! He managed to capture every important moment. He is not only talented but also a pleasure to work with, I highly recommend him for any occasion. Thank you for giving us memories that we’ll cherish forever!
I recently had the pleasure of working with Shogo for our proposal shoot, and I couldn’t be more impressed. He arrived at the location well ahead of schedule, demonstrating his commitment and professionalism. His hard work truly showed in the final product—he delivered both edited and raw pictures quickly, allowing us to relive those precious moments almost immediately. The quality of the photos was outstanding, capturing the emotion and beauty of the day perfectly. I highly recommend him for any special occasion!
Shogo is great to work with, very easy-going, professional, and does a great job. We were late to the photo shoot and he waited very patiently, and was very responsive and gracious.
Shogo was very professional, responsive and went above and beyond to make sure my special day was even more special. The pictures came out great and he even edited them without even me needing to ask. Highly recommend to capture your special moments!
