It’s summertime and the living’s easy

      Yesterday, my friend had a used clothing sale at her place, and I ended up snagging this cute floral-print dress for free 🙂 I never have enough summer dresses, so it was the perfect addition to my wardrobe. My recent addition is the photo app called “Afterlight,” which I used for these … Continue Reading

Skater girl

I feel like I say this every time I do a photo shoot, but this is seriously by far one of my favorite shoots. I shot with Lisa last autumn and we finally scheduled this little shoot in Harajuku. Her friend Chihiro did my hair and makeup in her studio and we ventured out in … Continue Reading

By the seaside

    I spent a relaxing day in Yokohama today with family friends. Blue sky, an ocean breeze (well, more like wind)… it was a Sunday well spent. It was my first time visiting the Red Brick Warehouse, a sort of shopping mall now but originally a customs building. One of the perks of Yokohama … Continue Reading

Partners in crime

Today, I had a meeting of sorts with my music producer and his friend whom I will be collaborating with on a brand new track. Not too surprisingly, our meeting lasted a couple hours at two … Continue Reading

Apparently there are several international festivals at Yoyogi Park, and last week was the Thai … Continue Reading

Matsuri in Asakusa

It was even better with all of the festivities, booths, and good food. When I go to events like these, I feel grateful that I … Continue Reading

You and me

This is probably one of the most interesting places I’ve done a photo shoot. We were able to use this little cafe in Shimo-kitazawa freely because of the photographer. And I loved the cute props he brought for the shoot – a portable record player, his vinyl collection, old magazines and photo books. It’s just … Continue Reading

Mother’s Day

I went through some old photo albums at my grandparent’s house today and found these lovely treasures. Made me miss my mom so much. ママ大好きだよ! Have a Happy Mother’s Day – show your mom the love she deserves!

What’s in my bag?

I’ve been wanting to do a post like this for a while, so here it is 🙂 I didn’t realize how colorful the inside of my bag was until I laid it all out… but I have no complaints about that. So here is what’s inside: 1. Planner – I don’t feel organized without this. I … Continue Reading
