A self-taught photographer from Johore, Malaysia, started his artistic journey back in 2007. While his academic background lies in the field of Information Technology, Yuji’s passion for capturing moments and telling stories through his lens is entirely self-driven.
Taking a hiatus for over a decade, Yuji made a return this time with a rangefinder camera and a 35mm lens. His late father's question, "Why aren't you taking photos anymore?" sparked a fire in his heart. Motivated by his father's memory and a desire to reconnect with his creative side, he began a journey of rediscovery.
Influenced by iconic photographer, Jim Marshall, who shaped the music industry's photography, Yuji aims to create images that resonate deeply with viewers, transcending the boundaries of time and culture. He uses black and white imagery to bring attention to the often unnoticed stories. Through his lens, he seeks to evoke emotions and uncover hidden beauty in the ordinary.
