Yuki Matsuyama worked for several Japanese women's fashion magazines as an editor before becoming a fashion editor for Vogue Japan in April 2000.
In 2006 she became the Fashion Accessory Director and has been creating unique and surreal photographic worlds specializing in fashion accessories, jewelry, and children's fashion. She has worked with photographers such as Nobuyoshi Araki, Sarah Moon, Arthur Tress, Thomas Lagrange, Isabelle Bonjean, Jem Mitchell, Elliott Erwitt, Alberto Rizzo, Martin Parr, Katerina Jebb, Gian Paolo Barbieri, Ilian Rubin, Toby McFarlan Pond, Chito Yoshida and Sophie Delaporte.
When viewing her stories you enter a world only Yuki can create. Vogue Angels, a children's fashion supplement, takes an unique approach to viewing children. You live in a child's dream and see them for more than what they are. They are not merely five going on six but carry a sophistication only women in their twenties possess.
She takes an experimental and alternative approach to her projects whether they are with accessories, jewelry, or children. Her accessory stories are graphic, bold, and erotic. They are not only objects in the photographs but become symbols of desire and lust.
Yuki currently lives in Tokyo.
