On Mika Ninagawa’s official website, she’s labeled “Japan’s most popular photographer” and included in the new breed of Japanese women artists.

Accomplished as a high-end editorial fashion and advertising photographer, Ninagawa’s work as an artistic director also affords her the ability to do special projects like create a line of beauty products for mega beauty brand Shu Uemura.
