I started 2021 with this session! So perfect as most of us are talking about traditions. I love the beautiful traditional portraits.
Stephanie and Jeremy got married in December. Mostly just them due to covid. No family from Japan could come and celebrate but Stephanie wanted to get portraits done in her homongi and her husband wearing his montsuki. But of course the star is wearing her kimono! Actually, grandma got kimono in Japan and Stephanie got her homongi to match her daughter's :-)
Did you know that Stephanie is a triple certified canine nutritionist at ? She is so knowledgeable and loved talking to her during the shoot about things that might be happening with my dog. I am definitely going to see her so she can help me make sure I can understand how to help my Blakey. Drop in to and she'll help you get to the bottom of your furbaby's issues! Thank you, Stephanie!
I would love to shoot more traditional, cultural portraits. I enjoyed how we achieved this for them and while adding in their fur baby.
I definitely see this hanging big on their wall for generations to enjoy.
