About this tour
When Tom from our BugBitten team did this Tokyo shoot, we walked into a studio tricked out like a cyberpunk fever dream — neon, props, the works. You get kitted out in a 2.5-hour session, pose with vintage tech and sunglasses, and walk away with 10 polished, high-res shots of yourself looking properly sci-fi. It's part portrait gig, part costume play, entirely bonkers in the best way. Suits everyone from casual travellers after a weird souvenir to folks who've watched Blade Runner too many times (guilty). Studio's easy to reach by public transport.
Highlights
- Cyberpunk studio packed with vintage props and neon lighting
- Ten edited, high-resolution photos delivered to private online gallery
- Professional retouching included on all final images
- Props provided: headsets, sunglasses, vintage TV, more
- Easy public transport access, no fitness barriers
- Flexible for groups or solo — works at any age
- Extra prints available if you fall in love with a shot
What to expect
You'll rock up to a studio that's been dressed to nail that dystopian-future vibe. Tom spent the session with a photographer who knew how to work the cyberpunk aesthetic — posing with retro tech, headsets, oversized shades. The energy's playful rather than stiff; no modelling experience needed. Two and a half hours sounds like a lot, but it moves: briefing, prop selection, shooting different setups, maybe a quick break. The studio's compact but well-designed, and the photographer walks you through each shot so you know what's landing.
You'll leave with 10 edited photos in your own gallery — professionally retouched, ready to download and share. The whole vibe is 'fun keepsake' rather than high-fashion intensity, which takes the pressure off. If you want more prints or images, there's an upsell, but it's straightforward.

Good to know
This is genuinely different — you won't see another traveller with these portraits. The production value's solid; retouching is proper, and you control which ten images make the cut. Anyone can do it, from solo travellers after a talking point to families wanting a group laugh. Public transport gets you there easily.
You bring your own clothes (think dark, edgy, techy vibes work best), so pack accordingly. Two and a half hours is a decent chunk of a Tokyo day. If you're after candid travel snaps, this is studio portraiture — curated, posed, staged. Small studio setting means limited group sizes, so book ahead during peak season. Weather doesn't matter (indoors), but the vibe is very niche — not everyone's cuppa.
Wear something you're comfortable moving in. Props are sorted. Ten edited images included; extras cost more. Easy access, no walking required beyond getting to the entrance. Infants sit on a lap. Best for ages 10+, though younger kids can tag along.
