About Hiroshi Imai

I was born in 1963 in Tokyo, Japan. I majored in civil engineering at the Tohoku University. After graduation I held senior positions in major global IT company.

I started to grow an interest in photographic expression that led to study and master the basic of photography, first from darkroom work, at the workshop held by Satoru Watanabe. Subsequently, to become a photographer, I joined the workshops held by Osamu Kanemura and Marc Prust.
