Happy Shichigosan!
The Shichigosan season has arrived again this year at Shinto Shrine of Shusse Inari in America!
We have a Shichigosan prayer package with kimono and photo session.
Reservations are now being accepted!
Shichigosan is a day to visit a Shinto Shrine to show your gratitude for the growth of your children and pray for their future to Kami-sama. It is not just a “wear a kimono and take pictures” day. Without the Shinto ceremony it would be the same as cosplay. In our tradition, Shichigosan is a day to visit a Shinto shrine with a feeling of gratitude and celebration.
Let’s properly convey Japanese traditional culture to the next generation!
* Kimono rental, fitting, hair styling and makeup are provided by FumiFumi.
**Our photographer sends the download link on the day or next day following the event. The photos are not edited, if you would like to have edited and/or printed out them, we can provide for an additional fee upon your request.
・３ years old $380
