Maiko Experience Place GION AYA - Since the first time, we have had people experience being a geisha, and this time, we had the fifth geisha experience, and we had our first outdoor shoot♪ So, we would like to introduce you to this person, Ms. A(*^^)v
Hello everyone \(^o^)/ Time flies and October is already coming to an end!! Halloween is just around the corner☆!! Are you all having any parties??? My little one is going to a costume party so I'm Takemi's head is full lately with all the thoughts about clothes and makeup (^^;) I'd like to introduce Ms. A, who visited us at the beginning of October when the weather was so nice and autumnal (^^♪ This is her fifth time visiting us. And she's been a geisha since the beginning!!! Even though it's the fifth time, she's been a geisha with a different atmosphere each time♪ This was the first time I was in charge of Ms. A, so I had a good chat with her and asked her about the image of the geisha she wanted to be. Okay, let's have a look at the photos first~~☆
Isn't she beautiful??? Doesn't she look like a professional??? Ms. A herself has a very gentle atmosphere, so she is a perfect fit for the moist and elegant image of a geisha (*'ω' *) This time, I tried out my makeup with a clear focus on the color red. I also added more pink powder called Tonoko to the white face paint than usual, giving the whole face a slightly pink color. I used red as the main color for my eyebrows, with black only on the ends so that they won't look blurry when photographed outside, and I also used red eyeshadow, making the outside red darker and the inside blurred, which somehow creates a moist atmosphere, doesn't it?
Well, well, the makeup doesn't look blurred in the outdoor photos either, and they're beautiful, right? And what's more, A-san's expression is just indescribable, isn't it? ? She's really good at posing, and I accompanied her as an assistant during the outdoor shoot, and I was entranced the whole time (*´▽`*) A-san is a bit shy, but this was her first time trying outdoor photography♪ And there's more... yes! Here
A beautiful woman looking back!!! This is one of Takemitsu's favorite photos (*^^)v This is her fifth time wearing a colored kimono, and her first time wearing one. The purple kimono suits her very well. Doesn't this dignified posture give off a mature, solemn vibe? And yet, there's something ephemeral about it... I wanted to look at it forever (lol)
Yes! Here is a photo of the room. Doesn't A-sama look cute sitting in the tatami room? But she is beautiful, isn't she? Geisha Takemi tend to look sexy, so this time I made her look quite subdued (lol). This is reflected not only in the makeup but also in the way she is dressed ♪ I was very conscious of not making the neckline too sharp, and not letting it hang too far out. Then there's the obi, which I wrapped as high as possible to make it look youthful, and if it hangs too low it makes you look too old. Even though it's a purple kimono, I wanted to avoid a sexy look overall, so this time I went for a theme of refinement rather than sexiness (*^^)v
What do you think? ? Doesn't it look more elegant than sexy? And as I've said many times before, your poses and expressions are really good, so the shoot went on smoothly☆ You don't look nervous at all, do you? ? This photo looks like you're about to go to a tatami room, doesn't it? You were very happy with the finished photos (*^^)v This coming season is really the perfect season for outdoor walks and photo shoots! Nighttime visits to shrines and temples will also start, and the leaves will start to change color, so why not make some memories with a Geisha or Maiko? ? Once the leaves start to change color, it will become harder to make reservations, so if you are thinking of going, please contact us or ask us as soon as possible (*^^*) It seems like we've only been introducing Geisha recently, but we will also prepare the maiko nicely, so when you visit, please let us know the image you want to create and the color of the kimono you would like to wear♪ Finally, one more photo
