Documenting the time held by
people and places through photography and film.
View selected works01 — SELECTED WORKS
People, culture, places,
and the movement within them.
I photograph people, culture, places, and movement, shaping each commission not as a collection of isolated images, but as a record with a sense of time and continuity.
PHOTOGRAPHIC PRACTICE
What was there just before it became a photograph.
The movement of a hand, light remaining in a place,
even the presence that cannot quite be put into words —
I want to preserve as much of it as possible.
02 — COMMISSIONS
Considering together
what should be preserved.
I create photography and films for individuals, companies, and cultural and artistic projects. Rather than simply photographing what is there, I consider what should remain from a person or place and shape it into a meaningful record.
Documentation
Shrine rituals, traditional culture, university events, stage performances, and art events. I document people's activities and cultural and artistic life as one coherent record. From 2 hours.
From ¥77,000 (tax included)
Portrait Photography
Portraits for business owners, artists, researchers, and individuals, created to convey not only the person but also their work and background. From 1 hour.
From ¥55,000 (tax included)
Short Documentary Film
Short documentary films of creative processes and events. Approx. 1 minute finished length.
From ¥88,000 (tax included)
Photography and Film
Ongoing photography and film documenting people, work, spaces, and objects, building a visual record of a brand over time.

03 — ABOUT
I photograph the layers of time
that gather around people and places.
People, culture, art, and space. I observe gestures, traces of work, and changing light, seeking to preserve what existed just before it became a photograph.
04 — JOURNAL
Before the Photograph
Thoughts before a shoot, encounters in the field, and moments that could not be fully contained within the photograph. A journal of words that exist between personal work and commissioned practice.
05 — FINE ART PRINTS
Photographs,
made to live with.
Fine art prints that preserve the sense of time found in nature and place, produced using archival materials. Each print is signed, editioned, and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. Worldwide shipping available.
