 I live in Tokyo. As rehabilitation for bad legs, I decided to start photographing different scenes around Tokyo. 

  The gift of walking again, even if it’s just one step, encourages me to find the beauty of everyday moments.

I am Japanese living in Kanagawa Pref. I started taking street photographs around 2009. I have visited and been in remote areas of the world due to my business. I intend to express straightforward and easy-to-understand photography to be my speciality, and I would try to visualise the ‘moment' in the daily scene because a photograph is only able to capture the instant moment when I press the shutter release button. No matter where I shoot, my stance remains the same.
