A Festival in Hokkaido

After few years of a global pandemic, and with Hokkaido having been one of the hardest-hit regions in Japan, a significant celebration for the residents of Hokkaido has finally returned this year.

They no longer need to wear masks to express their joy.
Through a series of parades and prayers, they seek blessings from the deities for favorable weather and peace and prosperity for their nation and people.

From products to portrait, from portrait to natural, my style stays the same: Very Natural, Real and Light.
