Pre-Wedding Photography in Japan | WEDDING AVENUE

Autumn is the most popular season throughout the year, with high demand for both Western and Japanese-style attire. For those particularly interested in shooting in October and November, I recommend early consultations due to the high number of reservations.

The reason why autumn is so popular is undoubtedly the vibrant foliage. Wedding photos taken against the backdrop of autumn leaves, especially in traditional Japanese attire, create stunningly beautiful images with backgrounds painted in shades of red and orange.

Other advantages include the relief from the hot summer months and the end of the rainy season, leading to comfortable and pleasant weather conditions for shooting. This results in the couple being in the best physical condition for the shoot, which adds to the popularity of autumn weddings. Additionally, makeup tends to stay intact longer, which is another significant advantage.

Autumn Western-style photo shoots offer scenes reminiscent of a movie.

Autumn's colors exude melancholy, leaving a lasting impression. Photos taken amidst the autumn sky and scenery capture a unique atmosphere that cannot be replicated in other seasons.

In Nagoya, parks with autumn foliage include Meijo Park, Shonai Green Park, Odaka Green Park, Tsuruma Park, Moricoro Park, and Floria.

What's recommended for autumn shoots is not just focusing on autumn foliage but also opting for photos that feature a collaboration between greenery and autumn colors.

In fact, among planners, photos taken with greenery as the backdrop are highly popular. Some even prefer wedding photos with greenery over those with autumn foliage and cherry blossoms.

So, pay attention to photos taken when the leaves are starting to change color but the greenery is still present!

Booking reservations ideally should be made six months in advance. Depending on the location, some places may not yet accept bookings, so confirmation of the shoot is not guaranteed. However, many locations operate on a first-come-first-served basis once the location permit is secured, so it's best to consult early.

Even for last-minute bookings, some locations might have availability, so it's advisable to start by checking the availability.

Regarding the timing of the shoot, late November to early December is considered the best period. It's particularly prone to fill up quickly during the autumn leaves season, so please be mindful of this.
