Art Iroke n Tokyo

Keeping with the times and my style of Art Iroke photography here's a few more photos of some of the talent that I've worked with the b/w photo is my main muse, we've been doing shoots for 6 years now. "it's something about her eyes". Iroke at it's best. Working with each model demands special attention to detail & emotions. Our photo shoots always seem to get the
desired results, so we just keep doing our thing.

Tokyo Iroke my Style

Shooting beautiful japanese women has been a driving force of my genre and art style for the past 5 years.
Capturing there inner beauty and sex appeal on film has allowed me to take some great photos and meet some
interesting ladies. But the next step is to take my art / photography to another level, to make it more artistic "without photoshop".
Tokyo Iroke has been one of the pillars of my work along with shooting street scenes and taking other various photos. It took a couple of years before I realized that this is what I'm interested in doing. While it was right in front of my face I didn't think i could make this my genre but it really took off last year. However as I continue to expand I've realized that simple photography has it's limits. So my work is about to evolve into some more artistic more original so to speak. So if you've been checking out Tokyo Iroke stay tuned for something new and
enjoy the photos.

These ladies have Iroke

Charm and intelligence all wrapped in one.
These three beautiful and sophisticated ladies are my main muses and we've been doing photo shoots together
since 2006. I must say that photographing each of them is always a challenge since they are both very artistic people and have very different
styles and ideas, so the end results of each photo is very different. I'll be posting a few of their more recent photos soon. so keep your eyes peeled.

This is Tokyo

I was going through some photos and it came to my attention that these two pictures just had to be part of Tokyo Iroke. So here they are the first one I took in Ueno back in 2000 it's an old movie billboard, the 2nd one is Shinjuku, Kabukicho 2004. This is
a part of Tokyo that is always changing and has fast paced night life that also includes one of Tokyo's red light districts.

Nubile Expressions 2010

Last year and 2010 has brought some new ideas to mind. So I came up with Nubile Expressions this is my 7th Solo Exhibition in Tokyo, and I'm happy that I'll be able to show some recent photographs of the Japanese women that I've captured on film. I'll keep you posted.

Well the opening party was a success and the closing party was as much a smash! over 30 people turned up and I was
delighted to here the positive comments and to have such a following, I'd like to thank all who came for their support.
Above is a photo of some of the guests, It was held in Shinjuku 3 chome, @ Gallery Bricorage. And now it's time to get to work on my next project.




私の７回目の個展『ヌバイル・エクスプレッションズ』が開催されます。
今回展示する写真は、私の視点を通して見た、そして私が写真に切り取り、とらえたいと思った”日本女性の美”を表現したものです。
それは決して単なる”かわいさ”だけではない、大人の魅力、成熟、色香がにじみ出たものです。

私はそういった彼女達のオーラに感化されました。
そして、それがこの個展のベースとなっています。

Doing my thing

Photography comes from the eye "the minds eye" to be more on point.
And film photography is still the ultimate when it comes to expressing
yourself with a camera. My work only deals with film format. My goal
is to present something untouched by the advances of technology
such as photoshop. I'm here to stay true to the art of fine photography.

写真とは、心の目を通して表現されるものです。
カメラのレンズを通して自分を表現するのに、フィルム写真以上のものはありません。
私は作品を全てフィルムで撮影し、フォトショップなどのテクノロジーは用いません。
私は写真芸術に忠実であり続けます。
