Accidental purchase of Portraits Inakoshi


got me intrigued. He passed away in 2009, but work is quite good. Web site is in Japanese, so for the most part nothing I can use. Does anyone know of English language sources?

Looks like quite a few publications to his credit. Here is a listing showing some of his work.

Google Translate does a decent job on Japanese, although it's a tricky language to translate. Still, what I get from his website looks easy enough to understand. Perhaps that solves part of the issue?

My Japanese is not too bad, but I do struggle with Kanji. There is a contact email address: info@kochi-inakoshi.com

Have done that, looking for more depth. Besides, I think he is an interesting photographer above average stardom level most people are accustomed to hearing about. So I'm hoping for some feedback from those who know more than I.

Certainly, I see what you mean. The website as such offers little concrete information. Thanks for bringing this interesting photographer to our attention!
