Walk through the main gate of Zojoji Temple — then look up to see Tokyo Tower rising behind the 400-year-old vermilion pillars. No tour book can prepare you for that first frame. This is where your private photoshoot begins, in the heart of Minato Ward, a 2-minute walk from Akabanebashi Station.
Your dedicated photographer knows every angle across three handpicked locations around the tower — a session that is just your group, your pace, your story.
WHAT WE SHOOT
Stop 1 — Zojoji Temple Main Gate, Minato Ward: The defining shot of this tour. Ancient gates framing the steel tower above — a contrast exclusive to this location in all of Tokyo. (all sessions)
Stop 2 — Shiba Park, Minato Ward: Upward angles through seasonal tree canopy, open lawn portraits, and dynamic perspectives from below. Quieter than the crowds near the tower base. (all sessions)
Stop 3 — Tokyo Tower Base, Shiba-koen: Directly beneath the tower for bold architectural close-ups and dramatic power shots. The most immersive stop on the route. (60 & 90 min sessions only)
YOUR SESSION
All sessions are fully private — just your group, no strangers. Choose from 30, 60, or 90 minutes. Meet at Zojoji Temple Main Gate (Akabanebashi Station, Exit A5, Toei Oedo Line).

TIMING TIP
Tokyo Tower illumination turns on every evening at dusk. For golden-hour shots against the lit tower, book 30–45 minutes before sunset. Morning sessions at Zojoji Temple are quieter and more atmospheric.
