Aloha, From Tokyo!

Aloha means hello, in this case. Hello, to sexy portrait models donning Hawaiian-themed “clothing”!

The “outfit” of this theme is, as you can see, a floral sarong, and leis. And, worn as it was tradtionally worn by the women back in the day, which is to say, topless. Sexy, are they not?

One of the models decided to ditch the sarong, too. Not by my bidding, of course, but I didn’t stop her either!

And one of the other models opted to take the lei off her collar, which perhaps made for an even more “traditional” look?

The models seeing this “costume” during our shoots brought out surprised looks from them, and delight (it seems it would take a lot to disturb them), and I loved this look, even as Tokyo chills out in one of the colder winters in recent history here in Japan. I hope this taste of Hawaii (and Aloha) helps keep you warm and happy in these times. I know I enjoyed these images, and the fun, so there will be more upcoming in the future.

Stay tuned!
