    EVERY KIMONO OPTION INCLUDES: dressing, basic hair styling (for sufficient hair length) and all accessories for women and men.

    GOOD TO KNOW:

    • Please choose all add-ons when booking; we're unable to add them on the day.

    • Hair upgrades are for kimono bookings, and extra retouched photos for photoshoot bookings.
    • Children are very welcome! Kids' kimono start from 80cm tall; choice per size is a little limited as sizes vary widely. Little ones can also join photos in their own clothes.
    • Retouched photos are per booking, not per person; extras can be added via GetYourGuide.
    • Popular spots may need a short wait in peak seasons; your photographer will look after you.
      We can't wait to welcome you!
