Daniel is originally from England, now based in Tokyo as a photographer and videographer. With a rare combination of technical skill and genuine human warmth, he's fluent in Japanese and moves effortlessly between photography and video — and has a gift for portrait work that comes from truly connecting with his subjects.

Massaki brings flexibility and precision to every shoot — fast to respond, accurate in execution, and someone you can genuinely count on. With bases in Tokyo and Nagoya and a network that stretches across Japan, he's well-connected wherever the project takes you. Fluent in Japanese, Italian, and English — and equally at home in each of their cultures.

Mikael brings a genuine cinematic sensibility to everything he shoots. With a strong background in film and the ability to fully direct corporate video projects, he's a rare find. Based in Tokyo with a wide network, and always ahead of the curve on new technology.

Sam brings a calm professionalism that makes everything run smoothly. With experience across the UK and US, and now based in Tokyo, he can be trusted to handle the entire shoot from start to finish. As careful with equipment as he is considerate with people.
