I had a wonderful portrait session for this beautiful young girl’s Seijinshiki, the most important Japanese tradition to celebrate the coming-of-age day. Lots of snow and freezing condition outside did not stop this family to have great time ! Cookie, their family dog, seemed enjoying the party, too. I am very happy for all !
