One afternoon ~ Tokyo Life Style Children & Family Photographer

In the one Sunday afternoon, I was practicing my camera setting on my husband ( I do this all the time so now he doesn't even look at me anymore.. which is totally O.K ;-) ) then I heard little noise from hallway.  Leo just woke up from his nap and came to join us.  He started playing with Daddy and I kept taking pictures.  These sweet moments are so precious.  I LOVE taking pictures at beautiful locations, and I also love capturing these everyday moments.  In Japan, photography culture is very different than U.S.  There are MANY photo studios to celebrate milestone in Kimono ( which is gorgeous and beautiful! ) but hiring professional photographer is for wedding.  Life Style Family Photography is not very common.  I believe every family should have pictures taken at least once a year to remember how family love looks like.  I'm looking forward to photographing many families, kids and babies while I'm in Tokyo!

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.
