Prints of Tokyo past and present

Published: March 24, 2025 23:30

Printing is something I’ve both thoroughly enjoyed and fully embraced over the last few years. It’s the final piece of the photographic process, and one that in a time of screens everywhere and constant scrolling feels more important than ever. With that…

The lovely signs and details of dated old Tokyo laundrettes

Published: March 20, 2025 23:30

Tucked away near a dated shopping street, this small block of houses was a traditional oasis of colour and old school charm. There was also its narrow, stone paved pathway, which was an incredibly appealing little extra. However, just like so many other…

Everyday moments from an old Tokyo wander

The mundane, everyday moments of Tokyo’s older neighbourhoods have increasingly become a focus of my work. Little snippets of life, and the things left behind, that in many ways mean so little, and yet at the same contain such a lot. Below then is a…
