[Japanese Style and Retro] Gentle Moments Under Night Cherry Blossoms and Indoor Portrait Records

This collection includes shots from different locations in the Kansai area. For the cover, I specifically selected a strong single portrait taken under night cherry blossom lanterns, where the layering of light and shadow, along with the subject's pose, intuitively displays my aesthetic orientation for Anime-style photography.

Having practiced both modeling and photography for quite some time, I deeply understand the stiffness and awkwardness subjects often feel when facing the lens. Therefore, during the shoot, I will personally demonstrate poses—precise to where the gaze should fall or which direction to shift the body's center of gravity—aiming to capture that unintentional, vivid, and natural state in the lens, ensuring you are adjusted to your most flattering angle. I will also keep an eye on makeup details, such as messy bangs or crooked collars, throughout the process.

Currently based in Kyoto, the Kansai area is truly ideal for creating high-quality images. Whether it's traditional shrines, stone-paved paths under night cherry blossoms, or Western-style rooms with a retro European flavor, simply adjusting the lighting and composition here naturally brings out a cinematic and narrative feel. I maintain strict boundaries on set; I am discreet and focus solely on photography-related matters, avoiding unnecessary questions. However, if emotional support or encouragement is needed, I can fully adjust my approach to cooperate, as a pleasant collaboration atmosphere is the foundation of a great atmospheric portrait.

Regarding booking rules: it is crucial to review my portfolio style beforehand. All my photos undergo careful color grading based on the raw files to ensure a unified texture. If this post-processing workflow is unacceptable to you, please state it clearly beforehand to avoid misunderstandings. I do not engage in forced collaborations, and I ask fellow photographers to refrain from photobombing or stealing shooting spots; logistics personnel should minimize interference with my shooting flow and rhythm. A photographer is not a tool on an assembly line; mutual respect ensures a smoother shoot.
