KEIKO grew up in Tokyo, Japan, a city where one is continuously exposed with visual images of a super paced daily life. Yet, looking for more exposure, she began a career with Japan Airlines where she was based on several continents.

Keiko met her soul mate while in Vancouver Canada, they married in Vancouver, immigrated to Canada and have lived here since.

Although her life seemed fulfilled, there was still an inner yearning that she could neither understand or suppress. One day she realized while out enjoying her life long hobby of taking pictures that it was more than a hobby, it was both a deep passion and a true inner calling. She made the decision then to refocus her life goal and follow in her Uncles’ footsteps. Soon after, she entered a full time diploma program at The Focal Point Photo School in Vancouver.

Since graduating　Keiko has established her studio focusing on her candid,  photojournalistic style of "capturing the fleeting moments of the day" in an unforgettable, distinctive and artistic angle. Whether wedding, portraits or products, still life or fashion, Keiko is driven to reveal the natural, intrinsic beauty of her subject.
