Japan

March 2018

A work opportunity arose that allowed me to both work and travel for a few weeks and to this day I haven’t said yes to something that quick. I primarily stayed in Tokyo major with day trips to Kyoto and Hakone. I have elected to shoot and edit these photographs in a rather cinematic way after pulling many cues from Blade Runner (1982), Blade Runner 2049, Katsuhiro Otomo (Akira, Neo Tokyo, Memories) and Mamoru Oshii (Ghost In the Shell, Patlabor). The experiences gained will forever be carried by me everywhere I am. We begin with Tokyo during the cherry blossom season

Tokyo

After a few days in Tokyo, I befriended a kind San Diego native by the name of Brennan. We would end up taking trips to Hakone and Kyoto amongst exploring Tokyo.

Kyoto

After Kyoto, I had one or two days left Tokyo, so lets wrap those up.
