I am so in love with Tomo's photography. Her medium format film photographs of children by the Japanese coastline are so beautiful and endearing, and with stunning symmetry and shapes as well!
I love the way she captures childhood.
life
And using beautiful cameras!
Most of these are with a bronica SQ-Ai
And some with a mamiya C330.
And how sweet is her own little photographer? :)

Sorry, I should have said she. Tomo is lovely!

going to reply !
These are just beautiful, she has such a style!
I can see why you found it hard to choose favourites.
They remind ne a little of 14"standard that I shared the other day. Probably cause of the little girl, esp the one where she's using the camera.
Lovely to share in admiring their work.love Kat x
