Testimonials
November - Mt. Fuji Autumn Leaves UNESCO - Japan Photography Tour
"Thank you for a wonderful experience. Your tour was the best one I have been on. Your tour does take you off the path (which I think most want) to see different things and to get the shots you want. Good point you made is to treat people with respect." - Paul, from Government of Canada
Japan 2019 Winter Wildlife Photo Expedition Workshop
“I was looking forward to the Japan 2019 Winter Wildlife Photo Expedition Workshop for months. Our workshop leader was an excellent host and guide. Can’t wait to do more Japan Dreamscapes workshops in the coming years.” - Kevin, America, Rockhopper Workshops (former CEO of The Luminous Landscape)

“Thank you and your lovely wife for all your care and attention displayed during my Japan Photography Tour with you both. I enjoyed every moment of it. By the way, I checked my photo count. Normally, I take 1,000 photos during a three-day photo tour, but with you, I took over 3k because of the depth we went to in each location. It has been a privilege and an honour to explore some parts of Japan with a great photographer. If you are thinking of exploring Japan, JDS is the best show in town.” - Gianfranco, Italy (by way of the UK)

My wife, Niki and I, were fortunate to spend part of our summer exploring Japan.
Our Japan photo workshop leader and his assistant put together a wonderful itinerary for us, based on their research of my website and many e-mails. We made it clear that we did not want to travel to any of the large cities or coastal areas. We wanted to explore the highlands, where it is generally much cooler in the summer, and small villages where we could get a taste of the spirit of the samurai and the shogunate (feudal Japanese military government).

Japan Cross Country Cherry Blossom Photo Tour
“New Zealand has its share of natural marvels, but on my tour, I photographed parts of nature that only exist in Japan. Our workshop leader helped us chase cherry blossoms all across the country. Part of the fun was seeing where we would end up next to take photos. We also had a chance to sample some delicious food when we took a break from snapping photos. We had more than a few questions, but our workshop leader happily answered all our questions while we were in the field. We were also able to indulge in luxurious, private hot springs to refresh ourselves at the end of each day’s adventure. I would definitely use JapanDreamscapes Photography for another photo adventure in Japan.” - Lisa & Karen, New Zealand
Magical Mt, Fuji Private Photo Tour/Workshop
“Waking up early and catching Mt. Fuji during the blue and golden hour made the trip for us. Our photo workshop leader took us to locations we would have never found on our own, and I am outdoorsman. The shots we took will be treasures forever!” - David & Michal, Israel
