Hello my dear Asuka Vision supporters!
For those who have not yet heard, here is my life update: Asuka Visions has moved to Australia.
At the end of last year I finally got to make the grand move to the opposite side of the world: Australia.
Although not too public about it, I have been waiting for Australia to open up since early 2021. At the end of the year, the country decided to open their border. Upon notice I gathered my belongings once again, similarly to when I moved from Oregon to New York, and took a 40 hours trip to land in Melbourne, Australia.
Writing this
today, it would be almost a month since arriving. How fast time flies. During the first week, it felt unreal. To think that at the opposite side of the world from where I grew up, there is land. Clean air, beautiful trees, majestic creatures. Life has existed my entire life, and I never knew of it. It is humbling. It is awe-inspiring.
Luckily, within the first few weeks upon arrival I made a new friend who enjoys adventures. Early New Years, she took me on a road trip along the Great Ocean Road. There she and I saw many wonderful creatures and landscapes. Of course, I photographed them on film. What a treat to have made such a sweet friend so quickly. She calls me crazy asian. She is pretty dang correct. Currently I am awaiting to receive the images back from my local film lab. Stay tuned :)
In regards to bookings,
the change in locations would evidently lead to having a new client base down here. That said for my friends up in the northern hemisphere, I am still available for travel shoots for a few months of 2022.
