About failure cases that occurred at Okinawa photo wedding
I would like to introduce some mistakes and regrets that actually occurred during a photo wedding in Okinawa.
The following comments were received from customers:
- I hadn’t thought of a rainy day plan.
- The wind was stronger than I expected and my hair style fell apart.
- The time I applied for the photo shoot coincided with the rainy and typhoon seasons.
- It was cold after soaking in the sea in winter.
- The image I had in mind was different from the actual photo.
- I couldn’t enjoy my Okinawa trip to the fullest because I was busy filming.
It would be sad if you weren’t satisfied with the photos you took or couldn’t enjoy the Okinawa trip itself…
In order to avoid regrets, let’s refer to case studies and prepare to leave a good memory!
What specific preparations and preparations do you need?
We will introduce it in detail in the next chapter!
Points to note to avoid regrets at Okinawa photo wedding
What should we be careful about to avoid repeating the failures listed above?
We will introduce the countermeasures as well.
Points to note ①：Plan according to the weather
As you know, Okinawa Prefecture is very dependent on the weather.
Because the environment is susceptible to typhoons, there may be sudden rain.
I understand that you want to take photos in the most beautiful conditions, such as a clear blue sky, a vast expanse of ocean, and a white sandy beach, but there is no way to control the weather.
Just in case, you should also think about a plan for rainy days.
Depending on the shooting studio, you may have to adjust the schedule again, or you may be able to shoot indoors as they have their own studio.
Point☝️
We at NanoStyle also manage our own studio, so we can change your photo shoot to a studio for free.
Additionally, if you would like to change your schedule for a location shoot, we also offer a one-year change guarantee.
Many companies offer paid options such as rain guarantee, but with NanoStyle, you can change the schedule as many times as you like within one year without paying for it.
We will respond flexibly according to customer requests!
Points to note ②：Find the ideal photo (background and clothing) to clearly convey the image
Even if it is a photo wedding in Okinawa, the atmosphere will change drastically depending on the location and clothes.
It’s okay to take photos at the sea as usual, and it’s okay to take photos in Ryukyu clothing, which is unique to Okinawa.
Wedding dresses come in a wide variety of styles, from beautiful A-line dresses with lace, ribbons, and frills to fluffy, princess-like dresses.
What kind of clothes do you like and what kind of atmosphere do you want to photograph?
If you have a photo, you can clearly convey the image to the photographer, so you can prevent the image from changing after the photo is taken.
Have a solid image in mind and look for reference photos to clearly convey that image!
Point☝️
NanoStyle has one of the largest lineups of costumes in the prefecture, with over 160 costumes!
Beforehand, our experienced staff will discuss your photo shoot and hair and make-up images, and discuss details tailored to your needs.
Of course, we will also check on the day of the event as we prepare and take photos.
Many popular spots in Okinawa are included in the designated locations, so you are sure to find a location that suits your image!!
We offer a wide variety of plans such as Japanese and Ryukyu clothing, as well as options such as drone photography and blue sky processing, so you can customize your style✨
Points to note ③：Check your favorites in the photo gallery on the studio site
Choosing where to have your photo wedding is an important choice so you won’t regret it.
Just because the price is low, I don’t know if you can get the photoshoot you want.
On the other hand, just because it’s expensive doesn’t necessarily mean it will produce high-quality photos.
Although this is a specialized topic, the resulting photos vary depending on the camera model, lens, and photographer’s characteristics.
Some people are good at taking photos with a retro feel, others are good at taking close-up shots (from a distance), and some are good at taking crisp photos with high contrast.
Be sure to check the type of photographer before making a request!
At NanoStyle, we will select a photographer who is close to the photo image of the two of you after thorough detailed discussions, so you will be satisfied with the result of the photo.
Points to note ④：How to spend your time other than shooting
Although this is the main event, it is also important to eat delicious food, try activities, and enjoy other Okinawa things if you come all the way!
Depending on how much you enjoy yourself outside of shooting, your facial expressions and gestures will change when it comes to shooting.
The two of you are already deeply in love, but it would be a good idea to think of a plan in advance to deepen your relationship even further!
There are many places where you can enjoy Okinawa.

It’s wonderful to have a leisurely picnic on the beach in Onna Village, or ride a glass-bottomed boat to see the coral and fish without having to soak in seawater.
Of course, you can also enjoy snorkeling and diving to the fullest in Okinawa’s sea, which is among the top in the world!
At “American Village” in Chatan Town, there are many things that can only be purchased here.
You can have fun just looking at it.
Uruma City’s “Undersea Road” has a long bridge that stretches over the sea, making it extremely exhilarating.
You can enjoy the sea of Okinawa to your heart’s content.

“Kokusai” Street is the place to go to eat and buy souvenirs!
There are items unique to Okinawa.
Theme parks such as Okinawa World are also recommended.
The worldview that you imagined is expanding.
You can enjoy Okinawa culture such as “Shisa coloring experience” and “Eisa”.

Points to note ⑤：I wanted to have a wedding
A surprisingly large number of people say, “I want to have a wedding” after carrying out a photo wedding.
Photo weddings have many advantages, such as being completed by just the bride and groom, which reduces costs, and allowing you to take photos of just the two of you.
However, it is not possible to have fun with a large number of people.
In addition to photo weddings, if you like a lively atmosphere or want to show your best to your friends and family, you may want to consider beach weddings, chapel photos, and restaurant weddings, which are unique to Okinawa.
