Some of the best Artists you should check out for Japan inspiration
While Instagram has recently re-labeled itself as a video-first platform, there are still tons of great photographers over there that post stunning work regularly. I’ve put together a shor tlist of Japanese photographers whose works I have admired on Instagram.
1. @Kohki
One of the OG Japan Instagrammers who posts captions and additional content in English. Incredible photos all across Japan, with a primary focus on street and travel photography.
2. @pere_peri_peru_
This photographer primarily posts pictures of people, including many children, in magical and whimsical Japanese landscapes. Think spirited away meets my Neighbor Totoro.
3. @benjaminbeech
A great English lad who often works with tourism boards to showcase beautiful and off-the-beaten-path destinations with great photography
4. @yasufumi_phot
Moody photographs of Japan across the seasons with a strong focus on mixing traditional and modern elements.
5. @osamuyokonami
An avant-garde photographer who often shoots portraits of Japanese celebrities in unique ways, also for advertising campaigns.
6. @age_cox
An underrated photographer who often uploads great carousels and uniquely designed Instagram posts.
7. @rkrkrk
Mind-blowing photographs across Japan as well as other parts of Asia.
I hope you will give these photographers a follow and find some inspiration for your own Japan photo trip someday!
