Kjeld Duits About the Photographer

Inspired by the stunningly creative street fashion that exploded on the streets of Tokyo and Osaka in the late 1990’s, photo-journalist Kjeld Duits launched JAPANESE STREETS in 2002. This makes JS one of the first fashion blogs on the net, and the very first to cover Japanese street fashion.

@julie & alexa: Yurie was a wonderful person to be with, too. A sparkling personality. Like a bottle of Champagne that has just been opened. I really enjoyed the shoot.

It is interesting to see Yurie’s full body shot among the other shots on the photoblog page. She really stands out. For Japanese standards Yurie is rather tall, 168cm. The average height for Japanese women of 19 years old (close to Yurie’s 21) is 158cm. Considering she is Japanese, Yurie has very long legs; that’s why the mini looks so good on her.

かわいいよ!!There is something REALLY interesting about her. She kind of seems like a model type. Her eyes are stunningly beautiful. WOW.

@Lactose Intoler-Art: Yes, I think she’d be able to get work as a model. But Yurie told me that she has no confidence. Don’t you love her eyes!

Kjeld Duits (photographer)

I love those shoes! She is beautiful as well.

Trinity Cooper

I thought she was a model! @Kjeld: Has no confidence? Were your eyes open when you took these shots? From an outsiders view, she was probably just being modest!

Mel
Jun 25, 2010 (4910 days ago)

@Mel: LOL. No, I usually photograph with my eyes closed. ;-) Actually, she is used to being photographed because she is a dancer. What I meant is that she said she has no confidence to be a model. If it was just modesty, she was very convincing...

Something about her smile tells me she must have been a joy to work with. :3 And what a great retro-sexy style!

@Raza: Maybe I should try to shoot her again…

Kjeld Duits (photographer)
Jun 26, 2010 (4909 days ago)

@Kjeld: Ha, did she tell you what kind of dancing she does? Also, I love the shoes, and the teddy bag is an unusual touch in contrast to the rest of her outfit.

Mel
Jun 27, 2010 (4908 days ago)

@kjeld yes definitely …. i’ll be looking forward to this:D

Raza

@Mel: I don’t think she told me. When I concentrate on shooting I occasionally don’t hear everything people tell me…

Kjeld Duits (photographer)
Jun 27, 2010 (4908 days ago)

I’m wondering what brand of contacts she uses.

Meg
Jun 28, 2010 (4907 days ago)

@Meg: I guess she does use contacts, doesn’t she! I hadn’t noticed at all…

@Kjeld Duits: Wow, it sort of tore my heart in two when you said she said she didn’t have the confidence to….this girl is really cute! And out of curiosity, what is the model height for girls in Japan?

Etsune
Jun 29, 2010 (4906 days ago)

@Etsune: I think this shoot has actually given Yurie much confidence. Yesterday she asked me for advice about modeling. I think the minimum height for Japanese models is probably around 160 cm, although it really depends on the needs of the client.

Kjeld Duits (photographer)
Jun 29, 2010 (4906 days ago)

@Kjeld Duits: Really??? That’s AMAZING! I’m so happy for her!! So does that you keep in contact with the people you photograph?

Etsune
Jun 29, 2010 (4905 days ago)

@Etsune: We always send a message to everybody that their photos have gone live, and to thank them again. Sometimes, people contact us again after that.

Kjeld Duits (photographer)
Jun 29, 2010 (4905 days ago)

@Kjeld Duits: Do you message them on facebook?

Etsune
Jun 30, 2010 (4905 days ago)

@Etsune: No, we have the e-mail address of each person we photograph.

Kjeld Duits (photographer)

@Kjeld Duits: Ohhhhh! Have you guys ever photographed really cool looking foreigners?

Etsune
Jun 30, 2010 (4905 days ago)

@Etsune: No, the mission of JS is to introduce Japanese fashion and designers to the world.

Nice blog you have. :)

Inga

Wow, she really does stand out. She seems very fresh and so does her style – a little twist without being over-done. And great legs ;)
I hope you get to shoot her someday again!
