This weekend I traveled to Seki in Gifu prefecture to shoot Shinzan Roshi a legendary Zen monk and calligraphy master for a client in the UK.
Amazing guy (read his wikipedia page – link) who unfortunately is now suffering from dementia which made the interview and calligraphy shoot a little difficult but none the less awesome – what a life!
Inspiring and super cool dude.
More work like this please!
***Update 2021**** Shinzan Roshi passed on to his next rebirth. Om Amitabha Hrih.
