PHOTOGRAPHY
My dedication to
photography and kimono
I have independently developed professional-level photography and editing skills, using photography as a way to express the beauty of kimono.
I specialize in dreamy, ethereal imagery that highlights light and color, continuously exploring limitless visual expressions through the use of prisms.
Through exchanges with international photographers, I have also learned techniques aligned with global professional standards.
