Ellie Aoki is a Japan-born fine art photographer working primarily with analogue film. Her work explores love, memory, and emotional connection — capturing the moments where vulnerability, resilience, and joy exist all at once.

Drawing inspiration from Sofia Coppola’s softness, the raw intimacy of Sagasig, the nocturnal candour of Chad Moore, and the dreamlike realism of Moni Haworth, her images blend emotional realism with stylised direction and atmospheric light.

She partners with fashion brands, musicians, and music events, bringing fine-art film photography into spaces that need a real voice.
