Popular Seiza Shots for Pre-Wedding and Post-Wedding Celebrations *

☑ The charm of capturing a traditional wedding photo with that quintessential Japanese wedding atmosphere

☑ Perfect for paper items for the wedding reception and material for New Year's cards

These are the attractive points, aren't they? ♡

While browsing Instagram, I discovered that there are several patterns for those seiza shots *

Which pose do you like? Here are 6 patterns of seiza shots to introduce ♩

Pattern ① Classic Seiza

The most classic seiza shot is sitting upright, hands resting on your thighs, and looking straight at the camera ♡

A serious expression works well, as does a gentle smile＊

Pattern ② Slightly Leaning Forward

A seiza shot with a slight forward lean is also a popular way to pose＊

The groom can confidently place his hands at a distance while the bride lightly overlaps her hands for a beautiful pose, this is the key point ♩

Pattern ③ Bowing

A seiza shot with a gentle bow carries a graceful atmosphere and charm ♡

Instead of looking completely down, bowing while ensuring all facial features are visible creates a lovely shot＊

Pattern ④ Being Close Together

While it's common to take seiza shots with some distance between the couple...

Sitting close together in seiza can also be adorable ♡ Tilting your faces toward each other is an additional recommended point ♩

Pattern ⑤ Gazing at Each Other

Capturing each other’s gaze while in seiza is also wonderful ♡

It beautifully conveys the awe of seeing your partner in traditional attire, something you don't get to see every day ♩

Pattern ⑥ Holding Photographic Props

Lastly, here's an idea for a shot while holding pre-wedding items ♡

Sitting a little apart, holding a garland is a classic choice＊

Decorating the surroundings with initial objects is also stylish ♩
