The very warmest welcome to our 37 Frames Story… We are Dee & Tracey, the creative force behind the 37 Frames team. We love nothing more than planning celebrations, photographing the world & telling life’s most beautiful stories, wherever they may take us. Especially here in our adopted home of Japan. At 37 Frames we are passionate about creating beautiful, timeless weddings and elopements, and legacies beyond the expected. We are always focused on you and your story. And of course showcasing this amazing place where you’ve chosen to celebrate. Rich in history, culture, scenic beauty and divine mystery.
With our main studio in Tokyo, our 20-year story has taken us all over the world for stunning destination weddings & adventure elopements. We never know what’s next and that’s the joy. Life is truly remarkable and Love Stories are at the heart. We’ve worked with couples of all cultures, all faiths and such an incredible diversity of amazing people and their families. Which brings us to our main philosophy here 37 Frames: We’re about creating something meaningful. As unique as the people we’re celebrating.
WE’RE ABOUT CREATING SOMETHING MEANINGFUL. AS UNIQUE AS THE PEOPLE WE’RE CELEBRATING. WE’RE ABOUT SHOWCASING JAPAN.
IN ALL IT’S NATURAL WONDER & AWE. WE CELEBRATE YOU.
Our evolution into wedding planning & event production started in journalism (our love of story) and the theater (project management and creativity - did you know that Trace was the Director for the Musical Chicago that toured Australia?). Which then led to our passion for photography and design. We became creatives behind the lens. Photographing weddings around the world. We then evolved into a truly collaborative and beautiful wedding and event planning team. Having been a part of almost 1000 celebrations.
Experience is everything in the wedding world... and photographers TRULY evolve into some of the best planners, (just look at some of the world's top wedding planners!). Because we see, we observe, we anticipate. We've been there. We know what works. We know what is possible. And we're ready to bring the impossible to life. We are big picture and small details at the same time, with a true love of light & design & STORY.
So it was a natural progression. A journey we’ve loved. And has led us to being a part of the weddings for Royal Families in Oman, the head designer of Armani in Italy, the Prime Minister of Vietnam, Hollywood actors, and all our multitude of amazing, unique, diverse, beautiful couples in between. We are grateful for everyone whose celebration we’ve ever had a hand in crafting and recording. And big... or small... every wedding celebration is incredibly special to us. It’s your day. And if you're thinking of an intimate elopement, it might only be an adventure for two, but it's just as meaningful and special to us. No exception.
When planning your wedding, it's important to choose who to have by your side. We know and respect this utterly. We are already holding a place in our hearts for your destination wedding or intimate elopement here in Japan. We hope you can feel how much we care. For you, your family and friends, and the place you've chosen to marry.
Seeing how people live, love & celebrate in every corner of the globe, is truly extraordinary and the importance never lost on us
Just a quick note:
Trace is recognized as Triple-Master Photographer through WPPI (less than 15 in the world) & myself (Dee) as a Double-Master.

We’ve been seen in Vogue, US Weekly, The New York Times, BRIDES!, Destination Wedding & Honeymoon Magazine, UK Style and E! Online and many more. 37 Frames has had a feature on ABC’s BizAsia and a little pop-up on Good Morning America.
While of course it’s not about the awards and media, we just mention them to show a consistency to delivering exceptional client service. For us, this all translates into producing treasured stories & celebrations for generations.
Seeing how people live, love & celebrate in every corner of the globe, is truly extraordinary and the importance never lost on us… it’s why we do what we do. We adore it and would be so honored to be part of your Love Story. Have a Destination Wedding in Japan. Elope in Japan. We're here as planners or photographers or both. The whole 37 Frames team is waiting for you.
We can't wait to meet you... Dee xo
