My reason for being here is to feature some of my work from past events and to meet people & establish solid mutual friendships. Since becoming a semi-fulltime freelance photographer in 2008, I have photographed everything from local festivals here in Nagoya to night club events in Tokyo. In between, I have covered a number of fashion events, cosplay events, auto races and car shows all over Japan.
Although I am just a freelancer, I'd say my standards are high... in providing great shots. I work with only digital cameras using common filtration techniques when required. As commonly practiced by photographers today, I do allow for digital editing as it pertains to the curves, levels, highlights, sharpening etc... I do not, however employ digital techniques commonly used to produce “photo art” (including photo-stitching, HDR, composites, etc…) I have studied many of these techniques and appreciate the beautiful images that can result in capable hands, yet still consider them artistic manipulation. I prefer to have my photos produced with only a single click of the shutter.
I love working with people and making them happy and capturing their important moments. My goal always is to be as 'unconventional' in my work and approach as possible. I prefer laid back, easy going shoots, in odd settings, i.e., parks, landscapes, or any environments that make the subject/s comfortable. Sorry no standard background drapes and straight on portraits for me... only on rare occasion. I prefer to capture you real, raw and in the moment. My style desires are different, I see the moment and feel it and then capture it! I am always open to your ideas, suggestions and input. I also like to know a bit about you, so I can tailor some artistic creativity into my shots of you.
I am available for assignment work, and my complete image archive, which contains some photos from the various events I have had the chance to photograph since 2006, is fully searchable from within the galleries listed below.
