AKIRA’s work creates a lasting visual impression through vibrant and meticulously conceptualized imagery. This is achieved by creating highly controlled environments using well crafted sense of light and composition. In addition to his stunning still-life imagery.

AKIRA brings his wealth of photographic knowledge and experience from architecture, fashion, and landscape photography to inform his approach to his still-life imagery. His experience in architectural photography brings a consciousness of the subject’s relationship to its surrounding environment and a skillful meshing of artificial elements. Influenced by a powerful sense of scale produced by his appreciation of light and space in both natural and urban landscapes, he stunningly recreates that sense of scale in the studio environment. Early on in his career, he was deeply informed by fashion photography which now helps him to contextualize subjects always with a reflection of the times.
