The Tokyo Edit

A collaborative fashion photo experience through the heart of the Neon City

Tokyo doesn’t reveal itself at street level. The real city lives in the marrow - in the dust of ancient hallways, the relentless hum of air conditioners in back alleys, and the slants of light that crawl across trees and buildings throughout the day.  This is not a tourist’s Tokyo; it is a series of exposed secrets. We will spend our days traversing the visceral and unnoticed to find the spaces where the city crawls inside of you. You aren’t just being photographed; you are being woven into the texture of a place that most people only see detached and from a distance.  The photos you create will tie you to this place forever.

The Philosophy

This experience is for those who want to feel the weight of the city and trade the polished storefronts for the basement atelier. By the time we finish writing our chapters together, you won't just have a portfolio of images, but rather you will have a part of Tokyo’s soul etched onto your own. It is an introspective and personal experience, meant for those who value the craft of the image as much as the final outcome.

The Production

We move with professional intention, utilizing a creative team to maintain a true editorial standard. Each participant is the subject of three distinct editorial chapters, individually planned and executed. This includes bespoke creative direction, professional on-set Hair & Makeup (HMUA), and dedicated wardrobe styling for every shoot. By leveraging our access to independent local designers, we ensure the final body of work feels like a high-fashion narrative rather than a souvenir.

The Investment & Invitation

To maintain the integrity of this production and our access, we host only two participants per journey, typically held in Late-September to Early-October. While the standard investment for this production is $11,500 CAD, we are currently selecting two individuals for our 2026 Founding Edition.

In exchange for your detailed feedback and the permission to use the resulting imagery and your testimonial to shape the future of this project, the Founding Edition rate is $8,500 CAD (or $6,000 USD). (Note: flights, accommodation, and meals are excluded to allow for personal travel preferences).

To ensure proper alignment with this experience, we invite interested participants for an open conversation to discuss your creative interests and expectations. If you are drawn to scratching underneath the surface of Tokyo, let’s talk.

The Conversation

There are some questions below to help us start the conversation. This project is intentionally small and selective - the questions below are a way to help understand whether this feels aligned for all parties.
