Top Overseas Wedding Photographers (Based on Reviews)

#1Lightedpixels Pixies

"I did my first overseas couple shoot with Marklin from Lightedpixels Pixies in Kyoto (Japan) during the recent cherry blossom season. I have to say not all photographers are as dedicated and patient as him! ... As we rarely take photos, we do not know how to pose and Marklin was very helpful in this aspect. The whole process felt comfortable, seamless and fun. My partner and I enjoyed shooting with him." - Delia (May 2023)

#2Loveinstills

"We did an overseas photoshoot (in Tokyo & Kawaguchiko) with Sebastian in March 2023. The schedule was at a very comfortable pace, such that we did not need to rush between locations. Sebastian was very patient, profession and also receptive to when we suggested ideas on certain angles and poses to try. Despite the rainy weather, he was still able to guide us to creating beautiful pictures, using his experience and lighting equipment." - Natalie
