山田智裕 / TOMOHIRO YAMADA
I run a vintage clothing shop, VIEUX ET NOUVEAU, and photograph clothes.
Sourcing vintage pieces, inspecting them, and shooting each one for the shop taught me what to show in a garment. How a fabric falls, the habits of its stitching, colours that only come with age. I bring that eye to fashion work. Look styling and e-commerce product photography alike.
In 2021 I began studying lighting so I could shoot for my own shop. Since then I have measured light rather than relying on instinct. Because the conditions are repeatable, quality holds up across large volumes. I work in fully controlled studio setups and in available light on location.
I shoot both digital and film. As AI becomes ordinary, it is harder to tell whether an image was ever really there. Film leaves a negative. A primary record that cannot be rewritten, proof that the moment existed. I would like to help those who value that truth, and those after a texture digital cannot reach.
