I'm a local portrait photographer from Burnaby who's been in the arts his whole life - music, dance and photography.

Languages Spoken: 
English, Japanese
Area of Town: 
Metrotown Area

About my background:

I started out as a landscape photographer. Landscapes, astrophotography and cityscapes was what got me into photography. I transitioned into doing portraits in 2017 and haven't looked back.

What I love about photography for dating profiles:

Being able to bring out the best in someone is very rewarding. A good portrait can make people happy, comfortable and confident in themselves. I find that amazing. My goal is to be able to help people connect with others through my photography.

Favourite spot for portraits:

Metrotown has the perfect blend of Urban cityscapes, Parks and nature background and corporate setting. It's the perfect place to get everything from a lifestyle shoot, an outdoor nature shoot, and even a corporate headshot.

I read all of the rave reviews about Yoshi, which is why I picked him. Not only did he live up to his reputation, he far exceeded it. He is truly amazing at what he does, made me feel so comfortable and confident in my shoot, and I had so much fun, even while outdoors in the middle of winter. If I ever do another shoot, I'm definitely going back to him!

Yoshi was friendly and made the process easy. I was worried that the whole process was going to be a lot longer and drawn out, but Yoshi definitely knows his work and I would recommend for anybody to work with him. In the future, I would definitely work with Yoshi again!

Overall it was an amazing experience. I loved the photoshoot as well as the end results. The only thing that was a hassle was getting the final photoshoot date settled but that was purely due to poor Vancouver weather and not anyone's fault.

Better than I could go have expected! His enthusiasm for the shots made me feel like a rockstar! He had great directions and details for what he wanted in the shots, it was easy to get many good ones. I had lots of fun and every intention to do it again whenever I get a new look! Thanks Yoshi can't wait to book another shoot!

I just wanted to let you know that Yoshi made me feel completely at ease and comfortable.Yoshi was really easygoing and friendly. I am shy about picture taking, so this meant a lot to me.  If I could give him a hundred stars I would!

Okay, wow. Kinda blown away at how easy this whole experience was. Yoshi made me feel at-ease and comfortable in my own skin. I hate photos of myself but somehow he managed to deliver an entire gallery of bangers. The difference in the quality of matches I'm getting now is night and day.
