Landscapes Between

During the pandemic lockdowns, with limited ability to get out and shoot new projects or expand existing ones, I started playing around with in-game photography. This is not a new concept.

Case Study: Mr and Mrs Sugano

Seiki Sugano and Minako Sugano always wanted to raise their children in the mountains, so their house in Ryozen, Oguni, with its plum orchard in the hills around Fukushima was perfect. At least it was, until March, 2011.
