Information from the Association

We've added an online option to the "South Korea Snapshot (Wedding Photography) Workshop"!

Overview

In South Korea, approximately 220,000 couples get married each year, and 60 to 70 percent of them opt for snapshot-style photo weddings. The average expenditure per wedding is 300,000 to 400,000 yen, and the annual market size is estimated to be over 50 billion yen. Jeju Island is a popular shooting location, accounting for 10–12% of the total (approximately 13,000–18,000 couples), while overseas shoots account for 2–3% (approximately 2,000–4,000 couples). Although photo shoots in Okinawa remain at just a few hundred—less than 1 percent of the total—the region holds high growth potential as the “closest overseas destination,” particularly through integration with honeymoons and small weddings.
 

We would like to shift this snapshot market to Okinawa, so we are inviting TOV (a South Korean wedding agency that specializes in Okinawa resort weddings) to host the following seminar.

"Seminar on Capturing Korean Snapshots (Wedding Photography)"
