Photography and video are my main forms of expression. I thought I could learn commercial-based photography in the field, so I majored in art photography in college, which I would not be involved in much in the future.

Photography as a production has become simpler and simpler over the years.
Photography is a medium that can be enjoyed in surroundings , and I hope to spread it widely and expand the culture of photo appreciation.
The accessibility of Toride is very much appreciated. It is close to Tokyo, but also has a rural feel, and people come and go in subtle ways, so I can enjoy the changes. Photography is a part of my life, as it is my livelihood.
When I see children who are constantly creating something, I think that the desire to create is inherent in human beings. Even if it is not art, I feel that if people continue to “create” as a hobby even after they become adults, society will become more relaxed and comfortable.
