Between 2015 and 2017, photographer Emily Ashcroft wandered through Tokyo’s backstreets and quiet neighborhoods, meeting six young women who would become the heart of her first book.
Through candid, sunlit portraits and everyday moments, Tokyo Girls captures the raw, unfiltered energy of youth: the laughter, the pauses, the small gestures that define the threshold between adolescence and adulthood.
Neither documentary nor fashion, this zine is a love letter to a generation in motion: tender, colorful, and fleeting, like the city itself.
