Kimono Photography in Kanazawa

A kimono photo shoot is a chance to create beautiful portraits while experiencing some of Kanazawa’s most atmospheric traditional streets and gardens.
I’ll guide you throughout the session, including positioning, movement and natural-looking poses. Some photographs will be carefully composed, while others will develop from walking, exploring and interacting naturally with your surroundings.
Whether you’re visiting Kanazawa as a couple, with family or on your own, the session will produce a varied collection of photographs that showcases both you in your kimono and the atmosphere of the city.
What to Expect
Guidance from start to finish
You don't need any previous experience in front of a camera. I’ll show you how to position yourself, where to look and how to move.
Natural-looking poses
Kimono naturally creates beautiful shapes and movement, and I’ll use that to create deliberate portraits without making them feel overly posed.
Kanazawa as part of the story
We’ll photograph you within the traditional streets, gardens and architecture that make Kanazawa distinctive.
A varied gallery
Expect a mixture of carefully composed portraits, wider environmental photographs and natural moments as you explore the area.
