We create images that become heirlooms: photographs that reflect your joy, your bond, and the timeless beauty of Japanese tradition. Yoko Tamaru, Tint Color

I am Yoko Tamaru, and I have dedicated myself to the art of weddings—bringing together bridal production, kimono dressing, beauty styling, and photography—for over 20 years. In locations that range from elegant hotel ballrooms to serene gardens, seaside landscapes, and traditional restaurants, my team and I have created unforgettable moments for countless couples.

I fell in love with kimono at an early age. I have a vivid memory of attending a cousin's wedding at her family's traditional Japanese house when I was a child. I was captivated by the dignified beauty of the bride, dressed in her wedding kimono. It was then that I resolved to work in the wedding industry. Over the years, I earned qualifications in color coordination, personal color analysis, hair and makeup, and bridal styling, all to help brides and grooms shine on their important day.

Now, I am delighted to offer something truly special: the opportunity for couples visiting from overseas to celebrate their bond by donning exquisite Japanese wedding attire. Much more than a photoshoot—our sessions are a refined cultural experience that will become a treasured memory, marking your journey together thus far, and the adventures still to come.

Our strength lies in collaboration. Like the multiple craftspeople involved in creating beautiful iro-uchikake, each member of our team is a seasoned professional—skilled photographers, and kimono dressers with decades of experience who ensure that every garment fits beautifully.

Allow us to honor your love story through Japanese artistry and tradition.
