Absolutely loved this experience. Despite the cloudy weather and rain, we were able to get some great shots. There are many Kimonos to choose from, trust your instincts but let them help you choose. Also, not being the youngest of age, or most trim, I still was made to feel beautiful throughout the dressing process and photo shoot. As we walked through the temple, I felt beautiful, which is more than enough could have hoped for. I can’t recommend this enough!

Lovely cultural experience
I loved the experience of wearing the kimono, which seemed to resonate with one of our cultural attire back home. I love my photos, and they are a great reminder of my visit to Japan. It was my first time participating in a photo shoot.

Vacation memories to last a lifetime!
I highly recommend this wonderful experience! We will have souvenirs that will last a lifetime and always remember our visit to Osaka. There is a large variety of kimonos to choose from, for all shapes and sizes. You can choose a city setting, a garden setting, or a little of both. It’s a short walk to the gardens outside the zoo and we got some beautiful photos. They will be emailed to us in about a week‘s time, but do were able to take a few with our phones, too. The whole operation is very professional! She did my hair and helped me coordinate everything with my kimono. It took a good 30 minutes to get dressed, it is beautiful, but complicated! The photographer is very professional and experienced. My husband and I had a wonderful time! This is a great activity for single people, couples, groups, and all ages!

This experience was...
This experience was unique as the lady in the shop made sure we had outfits that were photo ready and also fit. My physic is a bit different for modern sizes; however with an innovative mind, she was able to put together an outfit that worked and looked good. The photographer was patient and made the experience so fun. He captured amazing photos and made us laugh. The different scenes also led to an array of photos to taken for beautiful results. I would definitely advise other travelers to give this company a shot.

An Unforgettable Kimono Photo Session in Osaka!
My wife had the most incredible experience booking a traditional Kimono photo session on the charming streets of Osaka, and it was truly one of the highlights of our trip!
Our adventure began at the Kimono rental store, and we were immediately struck by the sheer variety of stunning kimonos available. Each one was more beautiful than the last, making it a delightful (though tough!) choice. Thankfully, the owner was an absolute gem. She patiently helped us navigate the options and guided us to pick out the perfect kimono that suited her wonderfully for her photoshoot.
After selecting her outfits, the owner's talent truly shone as she meticulously styled her hair in a gorgeous, intricate traditional Japanese updo. It was clear she was an expert, and the final look was simply breathtaking.
Then, it was time to meet our photographer and head out into the city. He was fantastic! He clearly knew Osaka like the back of his hand, taking us to all the most picturesque and authentic spots. He was great at directing us and made us feel so comfortable, resulting in some truly amazing and natural photos.
We will forever cherish the memories we made during our trip to Osaka, and these beautiful, professional photos are going to be a huge part of reliving those special moments. We highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Osaka – it's a unique and wonderful way to immerse yourself in Japanese culture and capture truly unforgettable souvenirs.

A wonderful experience!
The kimono photoshoot was an absolute highlight of my trip to Japan. It was so much fun to do – from choosing a beautiful kimono (they had a wide selection!) to having my hair styled in a lovely traditional updo. The photographer was truly professional and had a great eye for detail, which made the whole session smooth and enjoyable. The owner was also incredibly kind and welcoming. Highly recommended if you’re looking for an authentic and memorable experience! Thank you so much 🙏
