The release of a photo book titled "Profile" has been announced as the first part of the project to celebrate the 15th anniversary of Ryo Yoshizawa 's debut.
In 2023, throughout my last year in my twenties, I photographed in Hokkaido, Kyoto and the Kanto region, capturing the changing seasonal scenery, Japan's magnificent nature and prestigious buildings as my shooting locations.
This photobook contains many unused shots from the "Ryo Yoshizawa 2024.4 → 2025.3 Calendar" released in February. From the shooting stage, all the staff said, "It would be a waste to just include them in the calendar!", so we decided to release this photobook to share with everyone the many shots that could not be included in the calendar.
The book contains many precious shots, including various expressions of Yoshizawa that could not be seen in the calendar, as well as monochrome photographs and portraits carefully selected by photographer Toshiya Arai, allowing you to fully enjoy the 29-year-old Yoshizawa.
In keeping with the title "Profile," the photobook includes pages looking back on Yoshizawa, who turned 30 this year, from her birth to her debut and the work she has performed since her debut, as well as a DVD containing behind-the-scenes footage and an interview in which she talks about her memories of the shoot and her aspirations for her 30s.
This special box version will come with a 15th anniversary photo T-shirt featuring a carefully selected shot from the photo book, and a Polaroid-style card featuring a shot taken on February 1, 2024, her 30th birthday.
