About My Service
Inspired by the rich world of kimono patterns, fascinating history, colours and tradition, I decided to share my skills and knowledge with others. In 2018 I created INKIMONO — a professional portrait photoshoot service that also combines my kimono knowledge.
While we discuss the outfit for your photoshoots I often add some historical and cultural background of kimono! I believe that knowing what you wear, where it came from, what’s the story behind it, makes you appreciate it more and get even closer to Japanese culture.
CHOOSE YOUR PLAN
Before the photoshoot I prepare a full kimono outfit for you (for friends, partners etc) based on your personal style, things and colours you like, and any requests you may have. We discuss my suggestions on the day and create a unique authentic kimono outfit together.
Please note that unedited RAW data will not be provided under any circumstances -- only edited photos selected by the photographer.
If you'd like to bring your own kimono for the photoshoot -- rates will remain the same.
A discount of 5000 yen will be offered if you bring a full kimono set.
I open my schedule 4 months in advance -- e.g. September 1st will be available to book on May 1st and so on. If you don't see any available dates on my calendar, it means I am fully booked for the next 4 months and haven't opened the next month yet.
PRE-BOOKINGS: it is possible to book your appointment before my calendar is officially open to everyone, however only during off-season months (January, February, June, July, August, September). For other months there will be a fee of 15,000 yen for a pre-booking.
Price includes:
personalized kimono styling with a full authentic kimono outfit. I own an extensive collection if various kimono styles and formal types. Plus-size kimono available. I don't repeat outfits, so the outfit combination you'll wear on the day will be used one time only. Kimono and every part of the outfit is purchased by me. All items are authentic, very often rare and very high grade.
