Hiro has become a great photographer !

It’s been about 10 years since I met Hiro in Atlanta, where I was recording. He was a cheerful and fun person, and I immediately felt comfortable with him. It’s probably what he does to everyone.

I didn’t know that he took pictures at that time, but I found out later that he was a talented photographer. I like the way he releases the shutter. His framing is great. I can feel the uniqueness of his photos, which is fantastic. I hope one day I will have a chance to do a full photo session with him.

Congrats!!
