Happy 2nd Birthday, S! ~ Tokyo Children & Family Photographer

Happy 2nd Birthday, S!  2 years old is such a fun age to photograph because they are just full of surprises and won't stop running ...   I photographed S and his family at their vacation house in Karuizawa.  Karuizawa is an upmarket mountain resort at the foot of the active volcano Mount Asama in Nagano Prefecture.  It takes little more than an hour to reach Karuizawa from central Tokyo by Shinkansen ( Bullet train). They offer many wonderful restaurants, shops and many outdoor activities. We started at balcony first then backyard for more fun adventure!  Boys love playing with stickers and leaves and I had so much fun chasing after S and capturing all sweet and precious moments!  I LOVE S's outfit, too!  Isn't it so cute?  Mom put S's outfit together for this 2 years old milestone photo session ♥ Thank you for letting me photograph your beautiful family and enjoy the pictures, mom and dad! Peek-a-boo! Bubble, bubble...! My favorite! So precious.

Emiri 3 months old – Tokyo Baby Portraits Photographer

Emiri, she is one of the cutest baby I've ever photographed!  I know Emiri's mom for more than 6 years now.  We became friends when we both lived in New York City and we had so much fun together, traveling, shopping, dining, concerts, etc, everything NYC offers, we did it together. What a great memories!   Time flies by and now I have almost 4years old son and she just welcomed her first baby girl, last December.   I was so excited to photograph Emiri's 3 months old portraits.  First we headed to Koishikawa Kourakuen in Tokyo for cherry blossom.  At age 3 months old, there are lots of break during the session, feeding, changing,  and sometime baby falling asleep... ;-)  Those are all cute and precious moments and I'm here to capture all of them ;-)    We were able to create sweet portraits with cherry blossoms and more at home.   I'll be photographing Emiri throughout this year and can't wait for a next session.  Next one is when she is sitting up on her own!   I love the Spring in Tokyo!   One of my favorite! This one is displayed in her living room!  Love this one! So sweet.... Mom requested to photograph while she is feeding.  This is such a special moments and I wish I have pictures like this with my son!!!
