About Sayaka

I was born in Hokkaido, northern of Japan. I got the first license when I was twenty. I used to take underwater photography with a compact digital camera for a long time. I started full-scale underwater photography with a single-lens reflex camera in 2018 (4 years ago) as a hobby while working at a medical company. Now, I quit my job and keep shooting to tell the beauty of the underwater world and the excitement I felt while trips, And I keep to look for new impressions. I traveled around the world to shoot, and now I’m particularly interested in cold water and also rivers because there are more unknown than warmer water. I hope I want to know something new I have never seen.

I am honored to win The United Nations World Oceans Day Photo Competition 2021, Faces of the Sea category and got 2nd Place in macro category, Ocean Art 2020.
