One hour around Shimokitazawa
A short walk after rain – record stores closing, small bars opening, and the last coffee shops with warm light.
PhotoJP is a small personal photography journal focused on everyday life in Japan – late-night trains, back streets, stations and soft light.
Small curated series built around simple constraints: a single station, a one–hour walk or one neighborhood at night.

Narrow alleys, vending machines and quiet corners in Kyoto before the tourist streets wake up.
A collection of platforms at peak hour – patterns of color, posture and small gestures between trains.
Simple, light gear and mostly available light. The goal is to keep a quiet record of places rather than chase perfection.
Most photographs here are made with a single small camera and one lens. It keeps the process simple and portable.
Many sets are made within a limited time or area: one station, one hour, or one direction until the light changes.
