Features of Totte’s Photography Plans
No Extra Fees for Group Size
We do not set a limit on the number of people in a session. Whether it’s a Shichi-Go-San celebration with three generations or a shoot with multiple families, there’s no additional charge. However, for groups of 10 or more, we recommend booking a 90- or 120-minute plan to ensure everyone is photographed comfortably within the available time.
Flexible Locations Within the Session Time
You can change shooting locations within your booked session time, as long as they’re within the same city. Travel time counts toward the session, but combinations like your home and a nearby park, or two to three autumn spots in Jozankei, are possible. We also cover areas such as Sapporo and Otaru—let us know your preferences.
Flexible Rescheduling for Bad Weather
We check the forecast the day before your session and will contact you to discuss rescheduling if conditions look unfavorable. If postponement isn’t possible due to travel plans, we’ll adjust the time to avoid the worst weather whenever possible. For light rain or mild wind, sessions usually go ahead as planned.
Receive All Usable Photos
Except for closed-eye shots or similar unusable images, you’ll receive all photo data from your session. Delivery is via a download link, making it easy to share with family and friends.
Professionally Edited Images
All photos are shot in high-quality RAW format (delivered in JPEG). Each image is carefully edited for brightness, color, and skin tone, so delivery typically takes 3–4 weeks. If you need your photos sooner, please let us know and we’ll do our best to accommodate.
No Extra Travel Fees Within Sapporo
We do not charge additional travel fees for any location within Sapporo, including Teine and Jozankei. For shoots outside Sapporo, we can travel anywhere in Hokkaido with a modest additional fee based on distance.
Photographer
Hello, my name is Fuyuta Yamada, the founder of totte_photography. After gaining experience at a studio in Sapporo photographing weddings, photo weddings, families, and portraits, I started my own business in the fall of 2018. Today, I photograph a wide range of sessions, from on-location shoots and bridal portraits to Shichi-Go-San and coming-of-age ceremonies. In recent years, inbound photography for visitors to Hokkaido has also grown significantly. My style is relaxed and conversational—I rarely ask clients to “smile for the camera.” Instead, I capture natural moments as they unfold, creating photos that reflect the joy of the experience itself.
