Are repeat shoots sometimes done outdoors? If so, do they not provide outfits for outdoor shoots?

Maezawa from the Corporate Planning Office here as well. > Do they ever do reshoots outdoors? Yes. In fact, reshoots are more likely to be done outdoors. The reason is simple: the initial shoot is usually indoors, so they want to change things up. Also, people tend to photograph beautifully outdoors. That said, when things are busy, they may want to shoot outdoors but not have enough time to do so—meaning the staff’s schedule. In midsummer, it can be so hot that you sweat and your expression looks uncomfortable, making indoor photos better. In midwinter, it’s simply too cold, and so on. As a result, some shoots end up being indoors only. Of course, it also depends on the branch’s location. If there aren’t any convenient places to shoot nearby, the session may be almost entirely indoors. > If the shoot is outdoors, can’t you borrow an outfit? There’s no rule saying we can’t lend one, but outfits are basically provided for indoor shoots. With outdoor shoots, people often part ways outside immediately afterward, so there isn’t really an expectation that outfits will be provided. So, it’s probably best to assume that outfits are generally available for indoor shoots only. If you ask, they may be able to lend you one for an outdoor shoot, but walking around outside in some of those revealing outfits might be difficult. Incidentally, some of the other women wear the same rental outfits in their photos, so men can sometimes tell that an outfit is probably borrowed. If you want to be photographed in something sexy—or a swimsuit—it might be worth aiming for a rental outfit. However, there aren’t many options, and they usually don’t fit perfectly, so I think you’re better off choosing an outfit you personally like. Still, it may be helpful to ask to see what they have available, as that will make it easier to decide what to do for your next reshoot.

I’m だて◎ゆめ, a male member. If I remember correctly, I’ve heard that rental costumes are available. Though I also seem to recall hearing that many of them are quite revealing. Going out in one might take some courage, though（笑).

I’m Meg, a female member. I’ve never had my photos retaken, so I can’t really say. > Papuwa-chan Oh, I see now. That was in winter, wasn’t it...? The photos Mac took turned out beautifully♪ Sorry, I got the wrong idea (^_^;)
