Modeling Pictures
I love this one! This wonderful shot is among my personal favorites I did in my career. I love the beauty of Japan.
One of my most famous model shots of me. I was titled "Sexiest Woman in Asia" for it.
This model shot was done for Summer Promotion 2000 in Australia. The Ausies were weird on first sight, but once you hang with them, they are so much fun to be around. And the Australian beaches are nice, but I don't like the sharks or the box jellies.
These photos are from a series of ads promoting a new line of sleepwear and ligerie in the Asian and Western markets. This line became very popular name brand and I wear them all of the time.
This painting of myself was one of proudier charity contributions I did. It was for a number of American charities that deal with homelessness in America. I felt and still feel that in the "Land of the Free and Home of the Brave," with all of the food produced plus loads of money, that homelessness continues to be a problem.
This shot for what for a line of clothes from my dear friend Yokoshi Aska. Made for the Fall Season of 2000, this was her second series that she made. My hopes for her came true as she's now a part of a grand global fashion company.
This picture was used by this new boy band called Breeze as the cover for there first album, "Whisper". Their music was fantastic, but a tragedy befell them and they disbanded three years ago.
I love this picture of me. It was for a cover of an British fashion magazine doing an annual look of who's hot in the world of the "Supermodel" three years ago. I was titled, "Asia's Flame" and 4th most liked model in the world. This was when I was in the middle of my 2nd year in the modeling world. A great achievement for me at that time and a testament to my popular then and now.
These lovely pictures were from a special edition book about the fantasies of models. One of my fantasies was to be a cheerleader because I have watched these women do the most amazing tricks and I loved the outfits. The second picture is me with a good friend and fellow model Saku as very cute cheerleaders.
This photo was taken before I did a small role in a the Japanese soap opera, "Love in the Wings" as the waitress, Kathy Kunowaku. The acting was good for me in that it showed me that I happier living the simple life.
The boldest shot I have done, one that I personally enjoyed. It was for a book on women and sensuality. This was based on my idea of what a man can do to make me happy.
This beauty was from a new line of Hallmark cards that features famous people from politians to models, like me, with the sincere words that makes Hallmark a cut above the rest. The money made on these cards, over \$100 million, was for various charities all over the world.
Sentimental pictures
Though this looks like a CG picture of me, it's a painting that my father did with a special technique that he learnt from his close friend, Ma 'Koi, who's an great artist. I was my father's subject and it took him 3 hours to complete with this technique. I loved it very much, but my father didn't like the plainness he put into painting me. So I keep it for myself and when I look at it, I see my father at his most mortal.
I really love this picture of me. My father capture me beautifully and shows other people who I am. I'm both a woman of my own standing and daddy's little girl.
This painting of me was done when I returned to Rhydin to visit him. I choose to dress like the common girls I have seen on the plains of Central Rhydin. My father thought I looked very cute and reminded him of the days when I was a little girl and played dress up with Mommy's things. When I look at this painting, it helps me when I think about my mother and my little brother.
This very beautiful photo of me what done out of the loneliness I felt being on Earth alone. One night I was very lonesome and missed my father dearly. I went to sleep and had a beautiful dream where rose petals filled the air in a open field of flowers. My father appeared before me and hugged me for what felt like eternity. The next day, I talked to my boss and friends about it and arranged to have a special shooting. This picture was the result from the shooting. Purely my favorite picture of me and one that me and my father treasures.
