Shizuko in Moekana shirt by Murasaki.me

Previously shared some photos of Akiko in a Moekana print t-shirt by Murasaki.me and promised would soon upload some photos of Shizuko in a matching outfit, so here they are.

When seamstress Kuraikawai from Murasaki.me advertised some new Dollfie Dream shirts with cute Moekana characters printed on them, didn’t only acquire the pink kimono design model but also got the tora model.

Always adored the tora design of Danny Choo’s mascot Mirai used for Moekana and while haven’t been able to acquire the adult sized shirt, couldn’t resist this Dollfie Dream version.
Am glad was able to request yellow sleeves for it since that color perfectly matches the character print and Shizuko’s look.

The difference in lightning between the above photos and below ones is simply due to the fact they were taken on separate days.

By the time had set up my equipment to photograph Shizuko that first day, the sun hid behind the clouds so the lighting changed from bright sunrays to indirect light. Luckily such lighting is perfect for captures with a soft look.

These last photos were taken on a cloudless day, took advantage of the wonderful light cast by the setting sun which has a unique quality to it. Although it can be tricky to get the white balance and overall color atmosphere identical for all photos taken around that time of day.

If you are interested in these Moekana shirts for your Dollfie Dream, you can order the various designs at Murasaki.me.

Considering comrade Kuraikawai herself encourages the idea of a photo series of Akiko and Shizuko together, will try my hand at such a photoshoot someday soon.
