Thanks to Juan and the team for making everything feel so easy. It still feels magical to me how seamlessly we pulled this off. We were incredibly lucky to catch Mount Fuji at dawn and even luckier to have Juan standing by, capturing every moment so beautifully. We now have timeless memories that feel like scenes from a movie. Thank you for blending into the moment so perfectly and giving us a gift we’ll treasure forever.

“These guys were absolutely AMAZING to work with. Funny story, my first proposal location was an epic fail LOL. The location itself was BEAUTIFUL, but the area was very steep…. Juan trekked all the way up, but we ended up having to secretly reschedule for plan B. The second location turned out to be WAY better than the first. The entire area was BEAUTIFUL with so many scenic shots to take pictures after the big moment and the weather being perfect was the cherry on top! Juan and Rose arrived to the spot early, secured the location, and did everything to make the proposal go smoothly. Thank you guys so much for capturing one of the happiest moments of our lives. We will forever cherish these moments of time as we will get to relive the day through your work. Thank you for really going the extra mile for us… LITERALLY! 🤣 If anyone is ever in Japan and is looking for a great photography team, @proposalninjaphotography IS THE WAY TO GO!”

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing experience with the Proposal Ninja team and photographer Marco V, he was professional and patient all throughout the day even accommodating for my fiance’s bad foot which limited her mobility. Despite the challenges, Marco played the role of a surprise photographer perfectly and ensured we captured the magic moment perfectly. Marco was patient and knowledgeable, and guided us into ideal poses and positions across the proposal site to ensure we would have an excellent collection of photos from the proposal. We want to also thank the Proposal Ninja team for setting this up in Kyoto, and their knowledge and recommendation of suggested proposal sites through their planning service. Our magical day could not have been as perfect without the joint help of the Proposal Ninja team. Highly recommend their services, and Marco’s expertise if you are in the Osaka or Kyoto area.

Many thanks to Proposal Ninja team!  I had such a good experience leading up to, during, and after the proposal.  They’re an experienced, insightful, and talented team. I have never been to Japan, so their insight on pros and cons of potential sites in Tokyo proved invaluable and with their guidance, I decided on the Mt. Fuji area to propose.  It was a great decision, but you cannot control the conditions at Fuji.  Of course, the Proposal Ninjas came through.  They were communicative about the situation and were able to course correct at my instruction.  However, I was able to follow their lead and lean on their experience to quickly scout photo opportunities in an area they have never photographed.  They did a great job and quickly dropped location pins for me navigate.  Needless to say, the locations they chose were perfect. We enjoyed the process of selecting our final photos and were very pleased with the response and turnaround time in receiving them.  We were even more pleased with how beautiful they turned out - the talented Proposal Ninja team really made us look special.  We look forward to sharing the photos and using them on social media, save the dates, holiday cards, and invites!  Thank you Proposal Ninjas! Best, Kristin & Ben

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If you’re looking for the ultimate proposal experience, look no further than the Proposal Ninjas! Rose and Juan were a pleasure to work with and turned my half baked idea into the proposal of dreams. From the very beginning, their team took all the stress off my shoulders. They expertly selected the most breathtaking location with a perfect view of Mt. Fuji, organized a picnic and musician, and kept me updated every step of the way via WhatsApp. I never felt out of the loop, and their communication gave me total peace of mind. And the photos! The pictures/video captured the stunning scenery and gave us memories we’ll cherish forever. Our friends and family have heard so much about the "Proposal Ninjas" that they’ve become famous back home! Thanks so much for being such super stars.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great time with PNP. Leading up to the day, we had to reschedule several times due to poor weather. The professionalism that PNP showed as well as their ability to work dynamically made this day unforgettable. Would highly recommend and our photographer Jacob could not have been better to work with.
