Whether you are alone, as a couple, or with your family, your photographer will make you feel at ease and capture natural, luminous moments in an exceptional setting in Kamakura. Professional lighting equipment is set up on site to recreate true studio conditions. Profoto lighting, renowned for its soft and natural light, enhances every face, whatever the shooting conditions.

Before the session, a professional makeup artist can take care of you (optional), so you look your best on camera. As an option, you can also rent a traditional outfit (kimono or yukata). Your photographer will accompany you to a specialized shop to help you choose the outfit that best matches your style and the mood of the session.

Within 24 hours after the session, you will receive a first selection of 20 carefully edited and retouched photos, to keep a timeless memory of your time in Kamakura.
