A themed dessert café near the bottom of East Street (Hello Kitty theme at one point) with fresh ice cream and cute desserts upstairs; Redditors call it lovely, friendly with staff happy to let you photograph the space, and it's a regular shout on nerdy/anime itineraries alongside Tokyo Monster.

Artbox is lovely, they change theme every year or so (Hello Kitty atm) and they do delicious fresh ice cream or cutesy desserts in the upstairs…
…here,. including Bubble Pop at the end, for toys At the end of Bon Street, you'll hit the main North Street Right opposite there's the Bandai Namco Gashapon store Theeen (there's more) if you walk down to East Street, you'll be en-route to the sea Tokyo Monster and Artbox Cafe are good shouts here And theeen next to Loading Bar: There's Sarah and Topsy for anime/toys and more. Basically, if you love toys/gaming, there's loaaads to seeee - including Forbidden Planet/Miniso for the big brands. Have fun!
Artbox is a great spot as you mentioned, and I'm sure they are not going to say no! They are super friendly! I believe Thursday's the sitting area is closed so there should be space there for your photoshoot(?) Lanes in general can be good I imagine for that type of photos as well.
