OCHA NORMA Saito Madoka "Off Shot" A scene from the photobook shoot



Madoka takes a break in the middle of her second-day photobook shoot to hit up a burger joint. Pretty courageous if you ask me, to chow down on that big boi with still more camera time ahead!

Morning Musume. '24 Ishida Ayumi will release her last photobook titled "Profile.7" (Profile Seven) on October 21st. Photobook shot in Taiwan.

Ishida Ayumi, who is currently the sub-leader of Morning Musume. '24 and will graduate from the group after this Fall's concert tour, will release her last solo photobook as Morning Musume. As the culmination of 13 years of active life, two types will be released this time, a special limited edition and the regular edition.

It has been 13 years since she joined the group in 2011. Ishida has been a core member of Morning Musume for a long time. Nicknamed "dance machine" and has played a major role as a sub-leader, but she has finally decided to graduate. The last photobook is a collection of her thoughts and feelings as the last member of the 10th gen. The theme is "Yokogao" (face profile ; face seen from the side)

She has seen the profiles of many members on stage together. She has also shown her own profile when she was happy, frustrated, or happy. In this work, the "profile," which is also a charm point, is featured. We have not only looked at her external appearance, but have also delved deeply into her inner life to express all that she is today.

The regular edition of the photobook tells the story of a baby chick ("Pyoko Pyoko Ultra") when she debuted, but has grown into a "blue bird" and is now soaring through the sky.
The profile of the young girl who has found and arrived at the greatest happiness in her life as “Morning Musume." Pay attention to the pulse and dynamic appearance felt in the mysterious worldview of Taiwan, where eras cross paths.

The limited edition photobook includes photos from live rehearsals in Tokyo, the last Hello! Project concert in Sendai, and the ceremonial pitch at the Rakuten Eagles, her original home ground. The photos are full of the serious and heartfelt profiles of the members, which are rarely seen in the other photos. It also features a photo shoot at a memorable location. A 10,000-character interview with Ishida Ayumi, in which she speaks honestly about her past, is also included. An 85-minute DVD containing the location shooting and interview for the regular edition is also enclosed in a sleeve case, making this two-book set a complete set of Ishida Ayumi. This is truly a special edition. It is a book of the soul, filled with 13 years' worth of thoughts and feelings.

The theme of this work, shot in Taiwan, is "profile." Featuring her own charm points, the book delves deeply into the "side" of Ishida, not only externally but also internally, and expresses all of Ishida as she is today.
The release of the photobook is the culmination of 13 years of her career, and she commented joyfully, "I am very happy to leave behind another work as Ishida Ayumi of Morning Musume."

In the regular version, Ishida, who was a baby chick (Pyoko Pyoko Ultra) at the time of her debut, has grown up to become a splendid "blue bird" and flies in the sky in a storybook style.

"I tried to shoot the photobook with the story of the blue bird in mind, but it was interesting to see the various views of the world just in Taiwan, such as nature like in a movie, in a crowded place, in a cold atmosphere, under a blue sky, and so on, as if the strangeness of the world expressed a life that is not so smooth. I hope you enjoy what kind of profile each of these worldviews presents!"

Ishida introduced the special situations as "all of them." She said, "I hope that this book will remain in your hearts and minds for 10 or 20 years to come, as something that will never fade away, so that you will always remember Ishida Ayumi as Morning Musume. I would be very happy if this book will remain in your hearts and minds."

Legendary idol ANGERME Kawamura Ayano will release her last photobook titled "permanent girl"

ANGERME Kawamura Ayano's last photobook "permanent girl" will be released on November 12th, as she will graduate from ANGERME and Hello! Project and end her performing career with a concert at Nippon Budokan on November 28th.
For her first photobook in five years, Kawamura Ayano personally requested to shoot on location in Kochi Prefecture, her beloved hometown. The book captures the beauty of her natural state as she travels around the beautiful sea, rich nature full of charm, nostalgic retro cityscapes, and places full of childhood memories. In addition, there is a section introducing favorite costumes of the past generations, a long interview looking back on her idol life, and other reading material. Throughout the book, Kawamura Ayano's love and appreciation will be felt in the special contents.

Kawamura Ayano's comment
I am happy to finally publish my last photobook!
I decided that Kochi Prefecture would be the best place to shoot, so I shot on Kashiwa Island at the westernmost tip of Kochi Prefecture, on the Shikoku Karst, and in Kochi City, which is full of memories!
I was happy to be able to shoot in the beautiful emerald green ocean, so beautiful that even dolphins swam in the beautiful weather at Kashiwa Island! Please enjoy this book, which is a retrospective of my life up to now!
