Summer Green kimono photoshoots in Kanazawa

Summer in Japan is the most overlooked yet artistically rich season for kimono pre-wedding photography. From the fresh green of May and June, through the deep moss-green tones of the rainy season, to the warm light of late summer, this five-month window offers Japan's most painterly natural light and the lushest greenery. The trade-off is humidity — but couples who shoot at sunrise or in the late afternoon find the conditions surprisingly comfortable, and the lack of crowds means longer, more relaxed sessions at locations that would be packed in spring or autumn.
