The Golden Route a common route of travel in Japan that includes Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka. My partner and I had the pleasure of completing this exact route in 2026. I took thousands of photographs with my Canon R8.
The title of this collection also makes reference to the concept of Kintsuji: the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold, embracing imperfection as part of an object’s history and beauty. This concept resonates with me deeply and complements my approach to street photography, which is very human-centric and often aims to highlight beautiful imperfections.
