Kyoto Photography Workshop

Step into the heart of Kyoto and experience Japan’s ancient capital through a creative lens. From the iconic Kiyomizu-dera Temple to the hidden alleyways of Gion, this immersive photo tour offers more than just sightseeing—it’s a hands-on photography adventure tailored to your skill level.

This tour is perfect for absolute beginners wanting to learn camera fundamentals, and for seasoned photographers seeking a knowledgeable local guide to Kyoto’s most photogenic locations.

Wherever you’re starting from, this hands-on workshop will help you sharpen your skills and build confidence behind the camera. I’ll guide you step by step—teaching you how to use manual settings, understand the exposure triangle, and create strong compositions that capture the spirit of Kyoto.

You’ll learn how to control aperture, ISO, and shutter speed, while also exploring creative techniques like framing, light trails (in evening sessions), and storytelling through photography.
