What People Are Saying

Katsu is warm, friendly, professional, experienced and passionate about his job. He took the time to get to know us, as a result, the photos reflected us, and the sentiments of our perfect wedding day. Katsu was unobtrusive and captured all the important moments. We had many changes leading up to the reception. Katsu was prompt to answer my emails and questions. His prices and packages are very reasonable. Thank you Katsu, you were outstanding and exceeded our expectations.
We highly recommend your services. We have so many treasured memories to share with all our loved ones, thank you for capturing them all.”

“We absolutely love and can’t help but reminisce with the carefully framed, cheeky yet elegant photos Katsu took throughout our wedding day. Katsu is simply one of a kind. He is a truly experienced photographer who effortlessly puts you at ease, he was able to calm me down before walking down the aisle for which I am extremely greatful. He is a skilled professional who is able to deliver truly inspiring & devine pictures with a simple and kind hints and instructions throughout the day. I can safely say that Katsu’s style is one that has been refined and crafted much love and care. We knew instantly that he was our photographer and have loved every meeting, call, Wedding day and even keeping in touch after the wedding. We would highly recommend Katsu to help capture and celebrate your special occasion. To be honest I don’t think we’ll have anybody else take our photos from now on. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you Katsu for giving us such beautiful memories which we will treasure forever.”

“My wife and I hired Katsu to shoot our wedding recently, and we couldn't be happier with his beautiful photographs! Our top priority while researching photographers was that the photos should reflect the natural beauty of the occasion - nothing overly posed or edited. Katsu has a natural talent for capturing special moments, and a keen attention to all the little details that go into weddings. He was a pleasure to work with, and his package prices are reasonable considering his decades of expertise, level of service, and high quality equipment.”
— Jack & Monica @The Boathouse Shelly Beach

“We highly recommend Katsu! I discovered Katsu on Instagram because of his involvement with the Marriage Equality campaign. We contacted him but he was already booked on our weeding date, but we decided to go ahead with Alice, one of his photographers. Katsu was great and really helpful in the months leading up to the wedding and Alice did an amazing job on the wedding day, making everybody feel comfortable during the photoshoots and taking amazing photos during the ceremony and reception as well! Thank you Katsu and Sunny! “
— Heitor & Cameron @The Tea Room QVB

“Katsu was a brilliant wedding photographer - he was so relaxed and obliging, had some great ideas for shots, but also captured so many fun, genuine and candid moments of our day. So many of my guests also commented about how polite and unassuming he was - always knowing how to be in the exact right spot at the right time to nailthe shot, but seamlessly and without interupting. I'd definitely recommend him.”
— Janelle & Andrew @Bather’s Pavilion

“My husband Marx and I hired Katsu for our wedding in March 2023 at Manly Pacific Hotel. When we first met him, we knew he was the photographer for us. We viewed his work and were both impressed. When our day came, Katsu came to life, his calmness, professionalism and charm were on show. He wasn't obtrusive, sometimes we didn't know he was there. Nothing asked of him was an issue, and he even managed for the rain to stop when it was time to take our wedding party photos outside (LOL). Both of us are very impressed with the quality of his work and we would recommend him without hesitation.”
— James & Marx @Manly Pacific

“Katsu was the photographer for my wedding day. From the first email, I found him to be professional, friendly, and happy to answer any questions I had about the day or his services. On the wedding day, we found him to be respectful of the ceremony, and was polite and friendly to the bridal party as well as guests. He also kept in mind the over all tone and theme of the day which showed in the end product. The quality of the images is impeccable. Katsu captured some absolutely beautiful images and we are so happy with the result! It was such a pleasure to have Katsu as our photographer. Highly recommend his service.
— Jess & Masa @Elizabeth Bay House


Katsu is the best!! We were lucky enough to book Katsu for our wedding in October 2023 and, from the beginning, we knew he was the right choice.
He is very responsive, lots of fun to hang out with, super professional, and a total ninja behind the camera.
He made everything so easy and relaxed on the day, and took so many amazing/sweet/funny/special shots.
He really puts his heart and soul into his work and it shows. All our friends and family were blown away by the results. I can't recommend Katsu highly enough.

— Rachel & Vlad @Watsons Bay Boutique Hotel

As a makeup artist, I have worked with Katsu on quite a few occasions together. Katsu is always professional, friendly and accommodating, not only towards his clients, but also to other wedding vendors that the clients hire, which is extremely important to make their wedding day as smooth as possible. Apart from that, he is exceptionally talented, as evidenced by his extensive portfolio. As far as I know, our clients have always been happy with Katsu's work. I have no reservation in recommending Katsu's services to all the wedding clients out there.
— Stella Lee @Faces Makeup and Hair

I am a Sydney based marriage celebrant and had the pleasure of working with a Katsu at a wedding held at The Grounds of Alexandra last Saturday. Katsu was a dream to work with, totally professional and he seemed to have the ability to always be in the right place at the right time to capture those special moments. I've seen some of the images already - amazing!!! And I can't wait to see all the others, including the behind the scenes shots of the bride ( that I never get to see!). I recommend Katsu wholeheartedly as a photographer who takes pride in his work, is great to deal with and has an artist's eye.

— Nicky Solomon Celebrant

One of the best photographers in Sydney! I'm a makeup artist and I see LOTS of photographers every week, so I can pick out whose genuine and whose just in it for the cash. Katsu, definitely one of the most professional, humble and fun photographers you can find. He's really easy going, takes great photos (of course!) and is extremely professional. I've worked with him many times, and every single client we share absolutely loves him. I can't recommend Katsu and his team enough! I recommend book him as soon as you can as he gets booked out really fast!
— Amy Chan Hair & Makeup

There are not enough thank you’s in the world that we can say to Katsu for the amazing work he did throughout our wedding day and the memories he captured for us forever. Katsu is not just a photographer, he is an artist – he interpreted our vision exactly and in his beautifully calming and professional manner made his part in our day seamless. Our guests also could not say enough about him. Serious, thoughtful, playful, funny, soulful, candid – Katsu captures it all in glorious detail. Cannot recommend Katsu enough. 100 stars

— Liz & Steven @QVB Tea Room

We found Katsu from Google Map reviews and we liked that his services are very transparent. (No hidden cost or extra charge) So we wanted to book Katsu for our wedding, and reached him 8 months before our wedding. But he was already booked by someone else! Yes he is very popular! Anyways we decided to go ahead with one of his photographers. Jason was the one who did excellent job at our wedding! He took lots of amazing photos!!!! Thank you so much, Jason! Excellent service and we are so satisfied with what they did for us. Highly recommend.
— Mariko & Grant @Park Hyatt Sydney

We had a seamless experience with Katsu for our wedding day. He's experienced, professional, made the whole journey super easy, and delivered high quality beautiful photos. He captured the mood, lighting, and composition that we were after and his presence on our wedding day wasn't at all intrusive, which is a plus!
Thank you Katsu!

— Kemar & Tracey @Gunners Barracks

Katsu is such an easy going and professional photographer. He is down to earth and have great phototaking skill. We really like the candid shots perfectly capturing the memorable moments on the most significant day in our lives. We also engaged Katsu's videographer for our video. The video is amazing. I had goose bumps watching the video!
Thanks Katsu and Sunny.
— Rick & Steven @InterContinental Hotel Double Bay

Katsu delivered some amazing Wedding photos. The quality is great and the style exactly what we wanted. Katsu is such a sweet person that makes you feel comfortable. He goes above and beyond in his service. He is reliable, friendly and super professional. We recommend him without hesitation and would book him again for future occasions! Thank you so much Katsu! You’re a star!
— Katie & Matt @Pier One Hotel

Absolutely amazing photos! We are very happy that we chose Katsu as our photographer for our wedding. He was punctual, friendly and professional. We didn't even notice him taking photos during the day and he has captured everything. The pictures turn up quickly (3 weeks from the wedding), all edited and our guests also loved pictures! We highly recommend him for anyone looking for a photographer especially for your special day. Arigato Katsu-san!
— Kimi & Diego @Taronga Centre

Thank you again for photographing our wedding! Katsu is very friendly and even though it rained on our special day, he managed to capture beautiful moments. We received the pictures really quickly and the lighting of the photos was excellent even though it was a cloudy/dark day, the shots are well composed. The pictures are incredible and we love it.
