Decollte Corporation

© 2023 Decollte Corporation

The Decolte Group was established in 2001 with a focus on 'Happiness, Beauty, and Wellness,' as our guiding principles, ensuring impeccable service for our valued customers. In 2008, driven by the desire to cultivate the culture of photo weddings in Japan, we embarked on our journey into the world of photo weddings. Since then, we've been delivering a unique blend of top-quality photography and heartfelt experiences, capturing those one-of-a-kind memories that last a lifetime for couples. Throughout this journey, we've been playing a pioneering role in shaping and cultivating the growth of Japan's photo wedding market. We firmly believe in the power of photography not only to freeze moments in time but also to invoke powerful emotional connections. The act of revisiting our photographs after the shoot has the remarkable ability to resurrect the feelings and emotions of that special day. With a commitment to offer not just breathtaking photographs but also unforgettable 'emotional experiences,' we eagerly anticipate the continuation of this remarkable journey.
