Definitely went above and beyond; she accommodated our very last minute same day booking and travelled to our location, listened to our many requests, had great suggestions, helped us with poses that looked natural/fun/happy vibes. Also, love her edits! We got all our photos within 2 days! 💯Highly recommended!!! If i could give 6 stars, I would! Thanks Abigail! 😊

Money Well Spent!! - I booked this experience at the last minute and have zero regrets. Abigail was so amazing!!! I saw my pictures and gasped. She was so professional yet made me feel very comfortable. She took my ideas and was willing to try them. Whenever I needed my coat and bag held, she volunteered to help do that as well throughout the shoot. I honestly could not have asked for a better photographer to document my time in Kyoto. I am so thankful for the results of the pictures. I love them so much and it was money well spent!!!! Thank you, thank you, Abigail!!!!

Highly recommend Abigail and PiQtour! - Our experience with Abigail was wonderful. She took us to several spots that we would not have explored on our own and was such a sweet person. The photos she took for us came out beautiful; I couldn’t have asked for better shots. I highly recommend booking a session with her to commentate your Japan experience!

Such an amazing experience! - I wanted to do a photoshoot in Kyoto in kimono with my now fiancé. He coordinated with Abigail and informed her the photos would be for our engagement. (Unknown to me at the time as he proposed a couple weeks prior) I couldn't be happier with the photos we recieved.
Abigail was amazing and super fun. I'm glad we had the opportunity to have this experience with her. She led us around to different spots and made sure to get a variety of poses and was really dedicated. Her energy was great and I felt at ease with her within the first 10 minutes.
Thank you for taking the time to make our day even more special! Would definitely book back again.

Beautiful anniversary photos, lovely photographer. - My husband and I don’t normally do these kinds of things but it was our anniversary so we decided, what the heck, let’s rent kimonos and get some photos. It was our first time in Japan so we wanted something to commemorate the trip.
Our photographer, Abigail, was so sweet and helpful. I don’t know the first thing about taking a good picture and she was kind enough to help position my husband and I for the best shots.
We took most of our photos at Fushimi Shrine (I LOVE the red of the tori gates) and though I was worried about the crowds, they were no problem at all with Abigail’s assistance. She even told us a bit about the shrine! It was a really fun photoshoot.
If you want to get some beautiful photos made for your family or a special occasion, I can’t recommend Abigail enough 😁
