ABOUT ME

Sayuka Tanaka (汰中 沙由香)
Photographer
Based in Kanagawa, Japan
Born in Chiba, Japan in 1978.
With over 13 years of professional experience, she began her career in media editing before fully dedicating herself to photography.
Working across both film and digital, her style emphasizes intimacy, atmosphere, and emotional depth with her subjects.
Her inspirations include authors such as Yoko Ogawa and Natsuko Imamura.
She often listens to chill and pop music—favorites include Johnny Stimson and Phoebe Bridgers.
If asked about her “last supper,” she would simply answer: rice balls and miso pork soup.
She loves animals, coffee, her home—and most of all, people.
Through photography, she aspires to connect with people all over the world.
