A special feature of the backstage of the LIFE STYLE BOOK, currently in production!
Let us introduce some scenes from the meeting to wrap up the book!
Contents: fashion, beauty, interior, food, travel, family, etc…
Captions from top to bottom:
1. All photos, such as scenes of her residence and other places throughout the world were supplied by ayu. This huge collection to be used in the LIFE STYLE BOOK had to be rearranged in order, and the process had to be repeated many times. Starting with the cover, ayu checked through every detail and item which she wished to deliver to her readers.
2. After selecting the best photos, the staff team held a meeting to review the selection and decide if some shots were to be retaken. After a long thought process, this 2-year overdue work was born.
3. All featured items belong to her private collection, as she directed the artistry behind each and every shot!!
