YOSHIKI 3S PHOTOGRAPHY

3S (Slow Shutter Speed) Photography by Yoshiki Nakamura

The camera's image sensor accumulates photons for 100 to 300 times longer compared to typical high-shutter-speed shooting. This allows 3S photos to capture more visual information. As a result, motion is recorded with soft, faint patterns, and the background appears blurred, creating an image that tells its own story.

About

Hello, I'm Yoshiki Nakamura

I am a nature and wildlife photographer based in Seattle. My goal in photography is to create images that resemble paintings. While creating an excellent painting can take hours or even years, a photograph can be captured with just one click of the shutter. This is what fascinates and motivates me, and I have been photographing for over 20 years. Recently, I was invited to delve into wildlife photography, which has become even more captivating and inspiring, as it reveals a world where the cycle of life and death unfolds every moment. During this new journey, I discovered that 3S (Slow Shutter Speed) shooting is an incredibly effective tool for making my photos look like paintings—not only because of its painterly appearance but also because each image tells its own story. I believe this effect occurs because The camera's image sensor accumulates photons for 100 to 300 times longer compared to typical high-shutter-speed shooting. On this website, I present some of my 3S photos along with non-3S images. I hope you enjoy my photography.
