Photographer

   Kenji S

Starting out with my love for traveling the world, also enjoyed taking photos, mesmerized by it all, and began pursuing photography since 2017. 

Always dedicated to capturing the moment that only happens and lasts once in a life time, hoping to touch someone in some way through my photographs.

Has received various awards at domestic and international photo contests. 

Currently resides in Ibaraki, Japan.
