Profile

Freelance photographer based in Tokyo.
Graduated from the Nihon Photography Institute in Tokyo in 2009.
Literature and cultural studies at Duesseldorf University in Germany (M.A. in 2005), Anglia University in Cambridge (UK) and as research scholar at Waseda University in Tokyo (Japan).
 
News and editorial, travel photography
I am frequently travelling on assignments and personal projects in Southeast Asia, Europe, Japan and Israel. Contact me for details on planned trips and shooting locations!
 
My personal projects are between social documentary and metaphorical photography, exploring the beauty and strangeness of everyday moments and everyday objects, the ambiguous, when reality seems twisted and something out of the ordinary.
