These are what I did for selvedge. on 2008 AW.
This model Maria used to be my friend and I had watched her since she started her career on 18years old.
But unfortunately after we have done this shoot, she had gone.
She still on my mind and will cherish the memory we made, especially right before the day we had a crazy night out together to Karaoke bar in gay street
This is for Japanese bag brand named selvedge which is run by my friend.I am a fan of this very great quality of their products and the nice and smooth touch. It's available at most of trendy shop such as Via Bus Stop,Isetan and Beams, and also even in Liberty in London and other cities!!

These are what I did on 2007. We shooted at middle of Shinjuku.
We had so much fun and kinda thrill.

This is another YA-KYIM work.
This shoot was so much fun! These girls are so energetic. they never stop talking.
I love this photographer kishimari. We worked together with Marié for ViVi magazine.
I didn't know her so well but this time we are like friends now.
I just brought my Converse Rollerskate just in case Kishimari and Hairmake Natsu also brought theirs! Coincidence!! So we used them
Speaking of Marié, YA-KYIM and Marié are from same management office called Lepro.
The boss is so funny guy we drink at the club sometimes.(Actually last night too)
I did this July 2009.
I knew these girls by introducing by my stylist friend before.
I was surprised to get a phone call for this job!
They used to do very deep and hard hiphop stuffs so...
But now they want me to make it more pop and also little edgy.
Voila. How do you like it? I like the fonts!!
This is earlier work for DJ Gomi.
I did this retouching job done all by myself.
Photo is from the amateur aerial photographer in US.
It was in 2003 you know it was so hard to finish!
Actually this is my favorite work all time.
Because I put so many personal things in the refrigerator cut
such as phone number on paper napkin from someone I xxx
This idea is same as Lauryn Hill's Everything is everything which is my favorite video.
I did this for ViVi magazine, Japanese one of most popular girl's magazine.
Shoot with props is very fun. I love searching props.
Actually the red record that model is holding is mine. It's from Love Inc that DJ Emma used to play!!
I tend to take it very seriously but,since this job, I start to think like 'Why hair dryer and plastic balls? Who cares! it's just cute why not?'
I guess this is girls atmosphere I need.
This is for World-famous Shiro Sagisu's CD sleeve. (He is doing Evangelion job.)
I was soooooooo nervous and excited to work with him.
He was too busy to have a meeting so I always had to visit his studio and wait for recording whole song. But it was very meaningful either.
He was natural born artist and talkative man, and also he treated me as an artist even though
I was just a designer with no name! I thought he was big man!
I was kinda surprised that he picked this design rough which is most far from 'choir' image.
This is the job for DJ gomi who is DJ based on NYC.
The title sounds very familiar so I took this like just 'NYC toy box'.
DJ Gomi is talented an also as person he is so sweet and soft.
I met him on the flight from NY he acts like just like a guy next door.
Oh, I tell you I know G line runs only in Brooklyn.
I looooooove NYC!!! I wanna marry.
こちらはNYで活躍する、DJ Gomi さんの「I Love NY House」です。
「I ♥ NY」でちょっとひねりたかったのでお得意のコラージュ風にw
ゴミさんてアー写だと結構おっかないんだけど本人は至って優しく隣のアニキ風。
NYでは大御所のゲイの方を一杯紹介して頂きビビリまくりでしたよ
そうそうこないだNYからの飛行機でもお会いしましたがお会い変わらずソフト調子ですた。
そうそう、盤面でツッコミ来そうなのでいっときますけどGラインはブルックリンしか走ってないって?
知ってますよ~だ。
アイ・ラヴ・NYC~~~!結婚して~~~!
