I had a shooting of a great family at Fushimiinari shrine in Kyoto at the beginning of summer. They are very friendly and nice family and it was very easy to get along with them. Thanks to them I relaxed while I took their photos for 1 hour and enjoyed very much. Fushimi Inari Shrine is the most popular sightseeing spot in Kyoto and very crowded every time. Many Tori gates are on main street of the shrine and everyone take photos though we got beautiful photos without people on background! Yay!! We needed to wait for good chance and it takes time but worth it!! Not only Tori gates, This shrine has other great photo spots and I took their photos as much as possible. It was a great shooting time and I was so happy to take your photos:) Thank you so much for taking my photoshooting tour!! See you again!!
