In Japanese culture, balance and harmony shape everything—

that philosophy continues to guide my work.

Born and raised in Tokyo, I developed a deep appreciation for preserving meaningful moments through photography.

Photography allows me to slow down and notice the quiet moments that often go unseen.

Now based in Northern Virginia, I create refined imagery that blends editorial sensibility with natural storytelling.

Whether documenting an intimate gathering or a large-scale event, I approach each subject with thoughtful composition, light, and emotion—capturing images that feel intentional and timeless.

My work includes corporate events, select editorial collaborations, and editorial-style portraits across the Washington DC area—

including event coverage for organizations such as Amazon.

Based in Arlington, Virginia, I serve Washington DC and the greater DMV area.

If my work resonates with you, I would love to hear your story.

With gratitude,
