torch合同会社のプレスリリース
For one day only, photomar brings its signature private studio portrait experience from Ise to Okinawa.
About photomar & Our Okinawa Tradition
Founded in 2012 in Ise, Japan, photomar is a private portrait studio known for natural, heartfelt family photography. Located near the sacred Ise Grand Shrine, the studio welcomes families from across Japan, with portrait sessions often reserved up to one year in advance.
Since 2022, photomar has traveled to Okinawa each year to offer a limited number of private studio portrait sessions.
What began as a small seasonal project has grown into a tradition, welcoming international families, military families stationed in Okinawa, and returning clients who choose to document their children’s growth with us year after year.
We are deeply grateful to every family who has trusted us with their memories, and we look forward to welcoming new families to our private studio in Okinawa this summer.
Designed for International Families
Designed especially for international families, military families stationed in Okinawa, and visitors exploring Japan, this private studio experience combines authentic Japanese kimono with relaxed family photography in a comfortable indoor setting.
A Japanese Memory Your Family Will Never Forget
A family trip is more than sightseeing.
It’s your child’s first kimono.
The laughter you share.
The little moments you never want to forget.
Whether you are visiting Japan or calling Okinawa home, these are the memories worth preserving.
Rather than stiff poses, every session is designed to capture genuine smiles, natural interactions, and real family connections.
Summer 2026 Limited Session Private Studio Kimono Family Portrait Experience

Each child wears an authentic Japanese kimono, including carefully selected antique pieces that are over 100 years old.
