1. What's your favorite coffee brewing method?
My favourite coffee brewing method would have to be manual pour overs. To pick one particular vessel as my all time favourite is difficult. It is difficult because it is for that exact reason that I love manual pour overs. Depending on my mood and the coffee that I am about to be brewing, along with the kind of roast and what I am wanting to express from that coffee, will determine which vessel I choose to brew with. An excellent first choice however would be with the Hario V60 or the Kono Dripper. I also lover the different styles and characteristics associated with the pour over kettles available. Takahiro's are always a solid option though in my opinion.
2. What's your main photographing tool / what camera do you use?
My main photographic tool, one that I try to have on my person at all times is my beloved Sony a7ii coupled with my Zeiss Loxia 35mm or 50mm. I shoot only in full manual and through the time I have invested in using only manual lenses it allows me to put more time and deeper thought into my compositions. I feel that is one way to fast track your photographic progression and technique, by making your own decisions with regards to every aspect of taking the photo; that and also just take lots of photos.
3. Who is your favorite coffee instagrammer?
Hit with the difficult question of who my favourite coffee instagramer is. I gain inspiration from many different amazing instagramers and feeds, both relating to coffee and otherwise. A lot of my inspiration comes from what i have learnt through my studies in Architecture and Design, as I feel I have been blessed to be exposed to some amazing views and philosophies of how to see the world around us. I try to incorporate all of my inspirations into coffee related scenes. Some coffee instagramers that I am always looking to for inspiration however would be these bunch of legends of whom i'm sure need very little introduction as their feeds and personalities speak for themselves. @six_impossiblethings @mattydeangelis @analog_kopi @timjcoffee @55coffee @junichi_yamaguchi @artisansmith and many more including of course @kurasu_ . Inspiration is every where though.
A little bit about yourself:
A little more information about me though. I am a student of architecture and construction management. I have been blessed to be in the coffee industry and work as both a barista and a roaster. Having been given the opportunities to work with some of the best coffee's from around the world and meeting many amazing enthusiastic, passionate and inspiring people, I can only look forward to what is to come in the future. @cartelroasters @kazbahcoffeeroasters

ハンドドリップ Hand-Drip
ハンドドリップで抽出している時間が好きです。
基本はペーパーですが、ネルもたまに使います。抽出器具は気分や豆で色々変えるのですが、HARIOのV60を使う事が多いですね。
ドリップポットはタカヒロの雫を使う事が多いです。
I like the time I hand brew my coffee. I often use paper filters but I use nel drip once in a while. I change my brewing equipment depending on my mood and type of beans, but usually I use Hario v60

珈琲を楽しんでいるのが伝わってくるので大好きです。
I like how the photos show them enjoying coffee.
A little bit about yourself:
It might be too long, but here it is. Originally, I had no interest in photography or coffee. When my second son was born, I thought it would be better to tak 'good' photos if I was going to take any and that is what got me started on photography. At that time, I like shooting people including children. As I shared my photos on flickr and instagram, I gradually met more photographers and one of them brewed hand-drip coffee. From our talks about coffee, I started to gain more interest and researched on my own which got me hooked into it. There are many coffee brewing equipment which was intriguing but as I got fascinated by the equipment itself, the fluctuation of taste depending on how you brew coffee intrigued me more and more. At first, I posted pictures of coffee brewing on Instagram I took with my iPhone for my own record, but as I saw other beautifully captured photos of coffee scenes, I wanted to take photos alike and started to shoot with a single lens camera. Atmosphere is the most important subject in my shots so sometimes it may differ from the actual brewing scenes but I am enjoying taking photos.
では、長いですが書かせていただきます。
元々写真にも珈琲にも全く興味はなかったのですが、次男が生まれたあたりにどうせ写真を残すなら素敵な写真を残したいな。と、思うようになり写真に興味を持ち始めました。
その頃は子供を含め、人を撮る事が好きでしたね。
写真をflickrやInstagramで共有したりしていると、次第に写真仲間も増え、その中にハンドドリップで珈琲を淹れる友人がいたのです。
色々話を聞いていたら珈琲にも興味を持ち始め自分でも色々調べるようになりました。
そこが、珈琲にハマるきっかけでした。
珈琲には色々な抽出器具があり、道具としての魅力、そして同じ道具を使っても淹れ方によって味が変わったりと珈琲への興味は増す一方でした。
最初はiPhoneで抽出中の写真を撮り自分の記録としてInstagramにアップしていたのですが、Instagramで素敵な珈琲のある風景を見るたびに自分でも撮ってみたいと次第に思い始め珈琲を一眼レフなどで撮るようになりました。
雰囲気重視で撮っているので、実際の抽出風景と違う部分もありますが楽しんで撮ってます(笑)
