Welcome to Daruma Photography!

I’m Frans Dharma, a passionate photographer originally from Bali, Indonesia, and I’ve been living in Japan for nearly 20 years. Based in the Osaka area, I also serve clients in Kyoto, Nara, and Kobe.

I specialize in capturing the spontaneous moments that reflect the true essence of relationships. My approach is centered around authenticity—rather than focusing on posed shots, I encourage my clients to express their love and intimacy naturally. Whether it’s a joyful family gathering, a heartfelt couple's session, or a fun day out with friends, I believe the best memories are made in the unscripted moments.

I’m particularly excited to capture candid proposal photoshoots, celebrating the joy and emotion of one of life’s most magical moments. My goal is to create a relaxed environment where you feel comfortable being yourselves, allowing genuine emotions to shine through in every frame.

Join me in celebrating the beauty of your connections, and let’s create lasting memories together!
