If you want something softer and quieter, you’re in the right place — and the same person shoots every session, indoors or out.

THE NAME

"Usher in" means to show someone the way.
Adding "making" turns it into showing you the way

to the place where memories are made.

May photographs where people and nature sit together
keep surfacing years later, like a happy afterimage.

HOW I SHOOT

Three things

  • Direction, not posing

    You don’t need to know how to pose. I talk you through it as we go, and the people who feel most awkward usually come out the most natural.

  • Korean-style retouching

    Soft skin tones and a subtracted colour palette. Files are delivered afterwards, and the unedited originals can be added on.

  • Indoors and outdoors

    Studio light and Okinawa daylight. Choose one, or do both in a single day with Plan 02.
