"September in London" is a photobook by photographer Reiko Toyama, who is active primarily in fashion magazines and advertising. After gaining experience as a studio assistant and location assistant from 2008, she became independent in 2015. Since then, she has worked on numerous fashion magazines, including "UNION MAGAZINE," as well as advertisements and brand visuals, attracting attention for her delicate use of natural light, resulting in a sense of atmosphere. This is Reiko Toyama's first photobook, published by UNION Publishing. It contains works shot in September 2022, during her first visit to London. The book carefully records the cityscape, including people passing by on the streets, architecture, light and shadow, and the historical event of Queen Elizabeth II's state funeral, with the soft texture unique to 35mm film. The fresh perspective encountered during her travels and her quiet gaze observing the city combine to create a poetic depiction of the memories of London. The editing and design are handled by UNION MAGAZINE, and the book is finished with the same high-quality cloth binding used in their publications, making the beauty of the book's construction a major attraction in addition to the photographs.
