Plein Air Studio — Naruhako

Naruhako is a traveling large-format portrait studio. Rather than working from a permanent space, I create temporary studios wherever the light and surroundings feel right — parks, cafés, gardens, markets, and quiet corners throughout Seattle.

Each Plein Air Studio session is announced in advance with a limited number of time slots available. Reserve a time, meet me on location, and together we'll create a portrait using a traditional large-format camera. Your photograph is then developed by hand on photographic paper while you wait, leaving you with an original silver print to take home.

Working this way asks for a little patience and a little trust. Every portrait carries the character of the moment it was made, making each print as unique as the person in front of the camera.
