What's included in a kimono pre-wedding shoot
- Session length
- Usually 1.5–3 hours on location; half-day and multi-location packages run longer.
- Kimono & outfits
- One outfit is normally included. A second change — for example a white shiromuku plus a colourful iro-uchikake — is a common add-on.
- Hair, make-up & dressing
- Traditional styling, professional dressing (kitsuke) and, where needed, a wig (katsura). Included in most full packages, an add-on in lighter ones.
- Delivered photos
- Commonly 20–100+ retouched images depending on the plan; some studios also offer all the raw data.
- Location & permits
- The studio arranges the shoot location. Shrine, temple or garden permit fees are frequently billed separately.
These are typical ranges across the studios listed on Wasou Wedding Japan — not fixed figures. Confirm exact inclusions, outfit counts and delivered-photo numbers with each photographer before booking.
