1981年生まれ。美容学校卒業後、フランスでの勤務をきっかけに写真と出会う。
帰国後、写真と制作を学び、2015年独立。More Than Wordsを始動。
本当に心に響く一瞬は言葉を超えるのではないかと、その人が持つ一番自然な空気を見つめながら、心地よい温度を感じさせる写真を制作している。

Born in 1981, she discovered photography while working in France after graduating from beauty school.
After returning to Japan, she studied photography and creative production, and became an independent photographer in 2015, launching More Than Words.
Guided by the belief that the moments that truly move us can go beyond words, she creates photographs that capture people in their most natural state, with a quiet sense of warmth.
