Episode ten of the Japan Station podcast is here and this time we’re taking a dive into the world of photography.
Andrew Faulk is an award-winning Tokyo-based photographer originally from the U.S. who has done work for major publications such as The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, and Game Informer. In this episode we talk about how Andrew’s career in photography got started, what it was like starting his photography business in Japan, some of the interesting assignments he has been on, how he deals with cultural faux pas and language difficulties, what he enjoys about being a photographer, the allure of Vietnam, and much more.
This episode will have you wanting to head to Asia with a camera around your neck.
Note: This episode was recorded in December of 2018, thus when “this year” is said it is 2018 and not 2019.
