In the beautiful nature of Pakenham Ontario, the session started with warm welcome by the owner and family. Cartwright Springs Brewery is surrounded by gorgeous autumn colors and fun filled walk paths. We walked in the woods and climbed the hill to capture the joyful moments and the images turned wonderful ! I am so happy to see everyone’s bright smile !

Cartwright Springs is definitely worth visiting. Next time I would like to bring my husband, dogs, and friends ! For more info check here.

I had an amazing time during the session with highly spirited family ! Five year boy celebrating with traditional kimono with samurai sword (toy) and Mito Komon INRO was very unique and I could not stop smiling for remembering the very famous TV show in Japan. Thanks for the wonderful energy !!

This session was epic !!! Really epic ! I am excited to announce that I am the first in the world (maybe ? hopefully ?)) a photographer who captured a rock climber in Furiside, the formal Japanese Kimono ! Who said Kimono is not for active people ? Rules are made to be broken !

This Furisode girl celebrated her 20th year Seijinshiki event at her favorite rock climbing location while actually climbing the rock ! Her passion about the rock climbing brightened up the mood and made everyone so joyful ! I truly enjoyed and honored to share this adventure with the happy family.

Special thanks to her mother who prepared the beautiful bouquets and courage, to Miho Kobayashi who provided beautiful hair styling, and the family’s friend who gave stunning make-up.

I had wonderful time capturing the cheerful Shichigosan girl and her family ! With her stunning smile, the kimono portraits completed amazingly gorgeous. I was so happy to hear everyone enjoyed the session as much as I did !

Thanks to Ayumi Buklin for beautiful hair styling and hand-crafted corsage.

Ottawa is filled with Autumn beauty in October ! I am extremely happy and honored to be able to capture the important moments for this family. Canada’s amazing Autumn is always my favorite stage for the Furisode, the long sleeve gorgeous Kimono, to celebrate the young girls wonderful growth. I am sure her grandmother was there celebrating with us from up above …

In the early summer I visited Kamosu Miso Kobo Studio for custom photography session. Miso is Japanese soy-bean paste, the soul food, so flavorful, with tons of amazing health benefits. I use her Miso almost everyday for my breakfast Miso-soup so was very excited to capture the production there ! I hope my images deliver the wonderful Miso production. I also enjoyed taking the family portrait at the same session. Super energy from the two girls made the session so animated and joyful !! Thanks girls !

Kamosu is located at beautiful La Pêche, Québec, wrapped by calming nature. For more info please visit

After pandemic, schools have been quite different and lots of quieter options were taken for many occasions such as the graduation ceremony. I was very happy to have this private outdoor graduation photo session with her family. Beautiful summer evening lights celebrated for her achievements ! Congratulations !

I am extremely lucky again this summer to be an witness for this beautiful organic farm ! It is so wonderful to capture all the amazing vegetables’ process of growth. The owners call this simple miracles and I absolutely agree. For more info about this amazing farm visit http://jambican.ca/en/home/

This summer I was so fortunate to have a photo session such as this one. Sisters celebrated in style for their milestone Shichigosan ceremony of Japanese culture ! I had so much fun with the sisters by singing and playing together during the session. Thanks girls for the stunning smile !

I had a great opportunity to capture this acupuncturist’s business portraits who I first met at the outdoor Wellness event last month. Ottawa got so much talents everywhere ! I am so glad I am part of the society where the culture is rich and colorful !
