Who I am
In my photography, I’m fascinated by moments that feel raw, honest, and alive. I focus on texture, atmosphere, and the details that make an image feel tangible: skin, rope, light, shadow, and the small imperfections that give it weight. My experience with shibari has shaped how I see and work. It taught me patience, attention, and how to read subtle shifts in energy, all of which influence the way I shoot.
Much of my work is about observation. I create space for something genuine to happen and capture it as it unfolds. I am drawn to intimacy and collaboration, and I value the quiet exchanges and natural tension that appear when people feel comfortable enough to let their guard down.
Some of my favorite images come from building scenes out of ideas I want to bring to life. Sometimes that means using rope to create a particular shape or mood. Other times it is about location, light, and composition coming together to turn a concept into something physical.
Whether I am catching a moment as it happens or constructing one from imagination, my focus is on connection and presence. Rope often plays a part, not always visibly, but in the trust it requires and the way it shapes how I see form and tension. I am not interested in polished perfection. I want images that feel lived-in, textured, and alive, whether they happen naturally or are created deliberately.
