The first time she held a camera in her hands was summer 2019 when, at the age of 13, she and her friend wanted to shoot some beautiful pictures of their horses to post them on Instagram. Pretty fast, she started liking photography and wanted to know more about it : ‘I started watching youtube videos on how to adjust the camera, use lighting, the best angles and of course, editing pictures in Photoshop. The art of creating something and then touching it up, making it into something unique, fascinated me.’ In 2020, when covid started, Ayame’s school went online so she had more free time to work on her knowledge. Soon, she bought her first camera and started gaining knowledge and experience by herself. «The greatest pleasure of a dog is that you may make a fool of yourself with him and not only will he not scold you, but he will make a fool of himself too.» Samuel Butler, British writer Have a good read!’
