"Ever since I was young, I've loved looking at the sky and clouds. Even during difficult moments, catching sight of a beautiful sky would make me feel a little lighter, and I naturally found myself wanting to preserve the scenes in front of me in some way.

I didn't begin with a distinct style or direction in mind. As I spent more time photographing everyday life, my own sense of color and way of seeing gradually emerged. Even now, rather than deciding in advance what I want to photograph, I tend to respond intuitively to whatever is in front of me. Sometimes it's the light, sometimes the color, and sometimes the moment when a person's movement intersects with the light that makes me stop. I never quite know what it will be until that moment arrives."

"Colour is an important part of how I express myself through photography. Rather than reproducing colours exactly as they appear, I look for colours that come closer to the atmosphere and feeling I experienced in that moment.

 Instead of working toward a predetermined palette, I let the colours take shape through the process until I arrive at a point that feels closest to how I experienced the scene."
