Satoshi Minakawa
London
Having already built an excellent reputation in Japan, Satoshi Minakawa moved to London in 2005 to study photography. He now splits his time between Tokyo and London and travels the world for clients, bringing his unique mix of strong lighting techniques, boundless energy, and conceptual thinking to each project.
His latest project is for Beats by Dr. Dre wireless headphones commissioned by Apple US to shoot the launch of the 'Show your Colour' campaign in Japan.
The visual complexity of his work creates powerful multilayered advertising images. Clients include Vogue Japan, Guinness, BT, Credit Suisse, Nike, Asics, Hilton Hotels, L’Oréal, Panasonic, Timberland, Audi, Škoda, Land Rover, Mercedes-Benz and Nissan.
