Meet the Photographer




I'm Megumi,

I am a Hawaii-based photographer originally from Sapporo, Japan. I’m drawn to honest moments, beautiful light, and the little details that make every story unique.


Photography has taken me beyond the islands to places like Paris and Switzerland, combining two things I love most — travel and documenting meaningful moments in beautiful places.


When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll usually find me with a good book, working on my latest knitting project, or dreaming about where to travel next. I’m married to a Mexican, so I’ve picked up a little Spanish along the way — just enough to surprise you every now and then.


My approach to photography is relaxed and natural. I want you to feel comfortable, be present, and enjoy the moment while I capture the connection, laughter, and everything in between.

“Go where you feel most alive, and make something beautiful along the way.”

 

 

 

My philosophy

 

I believe the best photographs come from simply being present.


My approach is relaxed and natural, with just enough guidance to help you feel comfortable while leaving room for the real moments to unfold. The laughter, the quiet glances, the little in-between moments — those are the memories I want to preserve.


More than creating beautiful images, I want your photographs to bring you back to how it all felt.

Let's document your story

Whatever you’re celebrating, I’d love to help you remember it just as it felt. Tell me what you’re dreaming up, and let’s create something beautiful together.
