ABOUT
More than
a photo shoot.
A real Tokyo experience, with you at the center.
About MelbTokyo
Not just a photo shoot.
An experience built
around Tokyo.
MelbTokyo is a guided photo experience based in the heart of the city. We take you into Tokyo — the quiet alleys, the rooftops, the places that don’t appear in travel guides — and capture everything along the way.
Most photo shoots give you a photographer and a location. MelbTokyo gives you a local guide, a storyteller, and a camera — all in one. The experience comes first. The photos follow naturally.
The result is something between a travel memory and a personal story — photos that feel real, because the day was real.
What makes this different
Three things that set every shoot apart.
-
Guide first,
camera second.I know Tokyo’s hidden side — the timing, the light, the spots locals love. I plan the route so you can just enjoy the day.
-
No stiff poses.
Just real moments.I make sure you feel completely relaxed. When you’re enjoying the experience, the photos take care of themselves.
-
One person,
the whole experience.From location scouting and timing to the edit — I handle everything. You focus on the adventure.
The person behind it
Hi, I’m Hiroyuki.
I’m the founder of MelbTokyo and the person who’ll be with you on the day. I’ve spent years photographing people across Tokyo: weddings, portraits, commercial projects.
But the work I come back to, again and again, is the kind where the camera becomes secondary to the experience itself.
That’s why I started MelbTokyo — to combine the thing I know best (this city) with the thing I love most (photography). Every shoot is personal. I want you to leave with something that actually means something.
