About Aiko
Aiko Austin is a Japanese photographer based in New York. Born in Tokyo, she spent her childhood years in Italy and studied in the U.S. She worked in journalism and finance before pursuing photography as a career. It was during the COVID pandemic when she began documenting the everyday life of her family as a personal project, and since then she has been passionate about creating compelling documentary images that tell a story. She continues to create photographs because she believes they have a life of their own, allowing others to interpret the world as she sees it.
