Shichi-Go-San is a traditional celebration held each November to pray for the healthy growth and well-being of children aged three, five, and seven. At KiraKira Artistry, we offer fully coordinated Shichi Go San portrait sessions in kimono. From professional kimono dressing and styling to guided portrait photography and heirloom albums, each session is carefully arranged to create a joyful atmosphere and honor the beautiful spirit of childhood. We reserve only one session per day, allowing children the time and space to move naturally, rest when needed, and simply be themselves while we guide them gently. Final portraits are professionally refined to ensure beautifully presented kimono and polished imagery, even when little ones are full of movement.

Preserving the Moment, Perfecting the Details
Children move naturally throughout their celebration, and garments may shift between moments. We guide gently during the session and make adjustments as needed, but we never interrupt a joyous moment for the sake of perfection.
In retouching, we do not compromise. Kimono structure is restored, lines are corrected, and visual distractions are thoughtfully removed. Whether it is a shifted collar, favorite sneakers replaced with zori, or a busy background refined to quiet elegance, each portrait is finished with care so your child remains beautifully presented and the true focus of the scene.
