The truthful and unusual moments of everyday life in Japan in wonderful photos of Shin Noguchi

Shin Noguchi is a Japanese photographer, obsessed with the idea of capturing the most beautiful and unusual moments of everyday life of ordinary people since childhood. This passion and talent gave him fame as a great street photographer and author of the picture, which was included in the book “100 Great Street Photos” (Prestel, 2017).

A photographer who lives in the ancient Japanese city of Kamakura, located 70 km from Tokyo, regularly holds exhibitions of his works around the world, and is also a laureate of several prestigious international photo contests.

Noguchi says that almost every day he takes to the streets of his hometown and just loiters in search of curious and vibrant shots. It sounds incredibly simple, but just look at how vivid, extraordinary and unforgettable photographs are obtained as a result of a seemingly so uncomplicated creative process!
