Behind the Lens

Online, you cannot hold our bags in your hands. For this reason, photography plays a profound role in conveying their true allure.

To capture the essence and beauty of each piece, we held a shoot at the studio of a photographer who specialises exclusively in still-life photography.

Setting the scene

We needed to reproduce not just the bag itself, but the true essence of its materials — the exact hues, the feel of the hardware, and the delicate texture of the sea glass. Surrounded by large diffusers and professional lighting, we fine-tuned how the light fell on each piece.

Because this collection places such emphasis on materials — water-dyed lambskin, authentic Okayama denim, and sea glass crafted from scratch by our artisans — the challenge was to capture the weave and dimension of the fabrics and the soft glow of the glass. If the light is too harsh, the textures vanish; if it is too soft, the image strays from the true presence of the bag.

Through close, ongoing discussion with our photographer, we searched for that one perfect balance — a delicate art that relies on trusting the right creative partner and evolving the approach together.

Capturing the true colours

The hardest part of product photography is reproducing true colour. Even the same bag can look quite different depending on the light and the setting. After the shoot, we reviewed every image on our monitors and made subtle adjustments, so that the bag in your hands is exactly the bag you saw on your screen.

Beyond each bag's silhouette, the session captured its most intimate details — from the colours of the interior to the smallest design elements — so you can picture every piece as it truly is.
