Random [but beautiful] kimono-girl; Kamakura, Japan por Alfie Goodrich
Por Flickr:
Did a great photowalk in Kamakura last Saturday with a lovely bunch of people. Superb shots from all [which will be up on japanorama later this week] and a great barbecue to round the day off.
This lady was in the street with some of her family, just near to a little shrine we were shooting at. I had the tilt-shift camera on me and grabbed this quick shot of her.
Seems to be a week for me shooting girls in orange kimonos…. currently sitting here editing up shots of Akiko from our shoot in Tokyo last week, which are for a new sushi restaurant in San Francisco. Will post some of them once the client has signed-off on the job :-)

No trip to Kyōto would never be complete without a pilgrimage to the beautiful Kiyomizu-dera along with all the other tourists and would-be maiko.
