Paper to hold 5th Bikini Photo Session in Roppongi

Friday 28th August, 04:00 AM JST

TOKYO —

Newspaper Sankei Sports has announced that it will be holding its next Bikini Photo Session at Studio Folio 3 Studio in Roppongi on Sept 26, at which participants are allowed to take photos of the models as they prance around in bikinis and uniforms.

The 5th session will feature Lio, 24, a Tokyo model who enjoys her ballet and dancing; Tomoyo Hoshino, 18, a third-year high school girl from Tochigi; Kana Kanisawa, 25, a “food fighter” from Miyagi; Erika Kuroishi, 25, from Ibaraki and who took out the “Miss Young Magazine” award in 1999; and Kaori Mizusawa, 21, a model from Chiba who enjoys her hula hoops.

The women will appear in four photo sessions with the first starting at 12 p.m. and each session lasting 70 minutes. One session costs 7,500 yen but the price drops to 7,000 yen per session for those who buy tickets to two or more sessions. Tickets bought on the day cost 1,000 yen more per session. No refunds will be issued.

People attending are free to take photos but are asked to refrain from taking shots from low angles, and video cameras are prohibited. Those attending the event for the first time need to bring some form of identification. Pictures taken at the event are not to be sold under any circumstances, and those intending to upload their pictures to the Internet or otherwise distribute them must receive permission beforehand. Full details (in Japanese) can be found at http://www.sanspo-photo.com/

I got stopped from taking photos at the beach. I was not even shooting bootie. TOld the cops I can get much better bootie pictures off the net. He was nice though and just asked me to ask first if I take pictures of people. I had model releases with me by the way. I was shooting all the crazy pavillions and one band asked me to shoot. Who would pay to shoot girls in bikinis??? and the price is crazy. Might get some good shots though of people in line going to pay to get in. Otaku Heaven

What are they actually trying to promote. It seems like an extension of the 'Uncle Pervy' that hangs around at the beach with his camera under his towel. The only difference is, in this event he is paying ¥7,500 so he doesn't have to use a towel (until he gets home, anyway).

in fact i think those taking photograph are quite pity. because they can only distance learning but not actually contact with those girls.

Someone should take photos of those taking photos. That might be fun. Maybe the JR train driver photo-perv (who they failed to name for us) will be attending.

"their legs look so beautiful!"

They'd look a lot more beautiful if the photo was a decent size.

HOT CHICKS RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Always. This site has way too many gaijin girls who can't help but envy specimens like these. would you all be crying sexism if this was Smap in swimwear? I think not!

I have no problems with women wanting to do if it's their choice and are not being forced to do so.

The last guys I want to see in swimsuits is SMAP. Buck Tick, now that a different story.

I like tanned guys. And particularly the way the Jmen tan in summer is so fantastic. When will they have a show for women? Kusanagi should be the lead model, and the rest in swimming shorts. No trunks please for men. In trunks they all look horrible.

I do like this photo... but seriously, the girls extending their butts outwards and looking back like that -- it's pretty clear what advertisers want to stick you with... err what they want YOU to stick with. Anyway, no need for a bikini add to be positioned the way this photo is except the obvious. I like it, but in some ways it's so wrong.

These idiots at the Sankei newspaper should be doing this in the middle of summer! WTF! September? They should do this in July! August! in the middle of Shibuya station! set up some water tanks, get every body wet and wild! September? I hope these girls do not catch a cold!
Sarge at 07:55 PM JST - 30th August

elbudamexicano - Calm down! It'll still be warm Sept. 21. Especially with all these bikinis!
