I shot this "bitter summer" themed home-style set for Kasugano Sora in a Japanese-style room with tatami mats and paper sliding doors. The blonde twin-tails paired with black ribbon hair accessories and white spaghetti-strap Pajamas with lace trim fit the summer home setting perfectly. During the shoot, I utilized the natural light of the Japanese-style room combined with a warm-toned desk lamp to create a lazy and cozy atmosphere. Whether holding a magazine or hugging a blue whale plush toy while lying on a beanbag chair, the poses were quite relaxed. I also tried poses like tidying up things on the floor and lying down while lifting the plush toy, highlighting the Summer vibes. The final photos have warm tones, exuding a quiet everyday atmosphere, which I think restores Sora's unique character—cool yet dependent.
