Nagano explains his considerations before photographing a moment: “One is the visual aspect…understandability and simplicity. The other one is to make everyone smile…The reasons for this are because I believe smiling is universal and transcends all generations. Smiling also has an instantaneous power to cherish the atmosphere. Even more, smiling has a power to make people happy. Smiling therefore, is the easiest way to communicate and I believe it is the same for communication amongst families. “If I make them smile, everything is okay” — this is my philosophy as a father…I want not only for my family, but also those foreigners who follow my photographic journey on the website to smile and then we can all experience a sense of community and build spontaneous connections together.”
