Akinori Photography

I’m Aki, behind Akinori Photography — a wedding photographer specializing in wedding and engagement photography for couples in Kaarina and the surrounding area. For me, wedding photography is more than just pretty compositions: I aim to record the true atmosphere of the day, the small expressions and moments that make your story unique. My professional background includes extensive wedding and event photography projects in Japan, where I developed a refined ability to manage light in every situation. I use this skill to your advantage in both natural daylight and evening settings, with the goal of producing images that look natural and genuinely like you, without unnecessary heavy retouching. This approach gives the photos a timeless, warm feel and preserves the emotion of the moment for years to come. My working style is calm and collaborative. I avoid over-directing and instead create a relaxed atmosphere where you feel free to be yourselves. I offer gentle, clear guidance when needed — especially for couples who aren’t used to being in front of a camera. I often work with a documentary approach, while also seeking opportunities for refined, portrait-like images when the moment and location suit. In Kaarina I know beautiful shooting locations and can make the most of urban scenes, coastal landscapes and park settings to match your preferences. If you’d like an engagement or pre-wedding session before the big day, I’ll design it to fit your story and schedule — engagement sessions are a great way to get to know my style and to capture intimate photos that show your chemistry. Good communication before the day is essential to me so I understand your wishes and can prepare technically and aesthetically. After the shoot I deliver the final images via a clear online gallery service so you can easily share and preserve the memories. If you’re looking for a Kaarina-based wedding and engagement photographer who combines international experience, expert light control and a human, calm working approach, please get in touch — let’s create images that truly feel like you.
