Geisha Makeover Experience

Our collaboration project with Studio Rembrandt♡ ended with great success!!!

We are the all-round staff of the Maiko Experience Center GION AYA! (^^)! ※I always say all-round, but I mean people who can do all of the makeup, dressing, and photography (@Gion Aya) Held on December 12th,

A collaboration project between Maiko Experience Studio Gionsai and Kyoto's stylish theme park-style photo studio Studio Rembrandt

It ended with a great success ♪♪ Thank you to all the customers who came to the store!! Shooting in a luxurious and stylish studio that is different from usual was very refreshing for me, and I was able to accompany the shoot, and it was a very fun time ♡ On the day, I helped the maiko get ready in this waiting room ↓ (*^▽^*) Recently, I have been taking part in many photo shoots, so on this day, I was able to do the makeup and dressing of many child maiko, and once again, I was able to realize the fun of the process of getting ready (^^)/ ↓Y-chan, who I was able to take a photo with when she had time♡ We had a variety of customers, including those who came to celebrate Shichigosan, those who wanted to try being photographed by a maiko who is also a child model and cannot usually be photographed, and those who have their photos taken at Studio Rembrandt every month! ! There were many customers from Kyoto and the Kansai area, and I realized that there are still many people who don't know that they can experience being a maiko! (And I'm reflecting on that...) At Rembrandt, we only shoot kimono in long-sleeved kimono or Shichigosan kimono, so it was my first time to see the poses and handling of kimono that are unique to maikos, and they were interested, saying "Oh, so that's how it is done," and I realized that the beauty of the movements and postures of maikos comes from places like this, and that the things we usually do as a matter of course can make us feel "beauty"! ! I had so many thoughts that this post ended up getting long, but please take a look at the finished photos~♪♪ (All of the people featured have given their permission and their families.) ↓In a Japanese-style studio booth It's hard to capture the feeling of having so many Japanese items scattered around the ground like this in GION AYA, and it's also impossible to capture it from this height.GION AYA is a Kyoto townhouse, so the ceiling height is low.) so it was very refreshing ♡ ↓This child has always had her photo taken at Rembrandt, but she seemed a little nervous about being a maiko, but when she saw her mother she gave a cute smile ♡   ↓The cherry blossoms are blurred in the foreground, creating a dreamlike image ♡ I can't get enough of this slightly more mature angle ( ﾟДﾟ)♡   ↓This is cherry blossomsA cute studio booth filled with This springGION AYABut we would love to create a set with cherry blossoms blooming in abundance!!! (The inner voice of the park) ↓ Being able to shoot wide shots on this scale is one of Rembrandt's strengths!!! Gorgeous!!!   ↓This child is also a regular child model, so her pose is perfect♡ This sheer Japanese umbrella is also cute♡   ↓A shot taken across the vermilion curved bridge ♡ Lots of children wanted to take photos on this bridge♪♪ Only Rembrandt could have such large photography equipment!   These are just a few of the photos we have taken, but we were able to leave behind a lot of wonderful photos that are unique to this collaboration project♡♡♡ My daughter's half-coming-of-age ceremony and my son's Shichigosan ceremony were also photographed two days later, and not only was the studio and photography techniques excellent, but the consideration for children and families was also wonderful, it was a really wonderful studio!! ↓↓↓ (My daughter turned 2 (^^)/ but she was so big that I thought it was her coming-of-age ceremony!? (lol))   I'd like to do it again with the manager of Rembrandt! I was talking about that, but the schedule didn't match up and we couldn't shoot. I'm thinking about doing another collaboration project for those of you who couldn't. ♪♪ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ↓Here is some information about Rembrandt, who we collaborated with this time!
