Photoshoot with Shiho

Few weeks ago I had a photoshoot for my "tatami stool" I posted earlier about. My friend Shiho was modeling with the stool in a very beutiful and traditional tea house here in Kyoto. After those photos we continued with only her in the same tea house and also in the studio. She was wearing a calm, beautiful kimono that runs in the family from mother to daughter. One of my dreams was to be able to shoot a Japanese girl with a real kimono and here we go :)
