Comment from Ishihara Kaori
With the photobook release, a comment from Ishihara Kaori has arrived. She expressed her joy about shooting in her beloved dream location and highlighted the appeal.
Full Comment
“I’m really happy that we could do the shoot in Hawaii, which I love. It had been a while since I last visited Hawaii, but the sky was blue and the sea was beautiful, and the goodness of Hawaii is packed into this photobook. I think fans will enjoy looking at it, and for those interested in Hawaii, I believe it will be a book that makes you feel, ‘I want to go there!’ In the sea shoot, with the outfit matching, my current more adult-like self is captured, and throughout, the natural feel is a personal highlight. Please, with this photobook, enjoy Hawaii along with me!”
