Let’s Make
Photographic Work
Together.
I’m open to collaborations with students, newcomers, and emerging creators who want to bring their own practice, role, or idea into a shared photographic project.
You bring what you do. I have been a professional photographer since 1992. Together, we shape a photographic world and make work that can live beyond the shoot.

Who this is for
Bring a practice, a role, or an idea.
A starting point and a willingness to contribute are enough. You do not need an established career or a finished proposal.
Hair, makeup, fashion, styling
Students and early-career practitioners who want to turn their work into strong photographs for a portfolio, presentation, or new creative direction.
Designers, musicians, and mixed teams
Fashion, costume, graphic design, objects, music, performance, and projects that bring several creative roles together.
Looking to be photographed?
For a STORY portrait, use the General Model Call.
This page is for people bringing a practice, skill, performance, design, or idea into a shared project.
If your main interest is appearing in a STORY portrait as a model, the General Model Call is the more direct route.
STORY Portrait
How we collaborate
Bring what you do. Build the work together.
The aim is to combine different skills and points of view, then carry the photographs through to a finished form that can be shown.
Begin with something you want to explore
An image, garment, performance, character, movement, object, place, story, or an idea that does not yet have a name can all be valid beginnings.
Shape the photographic world together
Light, location, composition, movement, clothing, body, and story are developed through conversation and the shoot itself.
Make something that can live beyond the shoot
The result may take the form of web work, a portfolio, an exhibition, a ZINE, performance documentation, or another form suited to the project.
Relaxed process, serious work
Tokyo and the Ikebukuro area are practical starting points. The process can be informal and enjoyable while the finished photographs remain carefully made.
Production support
Depending on the project, FUJIYOSHI may be able to cover part of a modest studio cost. The location and production plan are decided according to the work.
