Photo-Eye Best Book of the Year 2010
Selected in Sean O’Hagan’s Top Ten Photobooks of 2010, The Guardian

See You Soon is a photographic narrative exploring the development of a relationship between the photographer and a woman from Tokyo. The book presents the progression of intimacy between the two, documenting the private journey from their first meeting through to her departure on the expiry of her visa.

As a love letter, or diary, it engages the reader in a highly emotive, affectionate and personal period of time, capturing these emotions with a snapshot camera in everyday and sometimes mundane scenarios. It has been edited in such a way as to form a full narrative, but within the pages individual exchanges are present, revealing short passing stories and moments within the whole.

“The story is told beautifully, bittersweetly, as if each picture were a lamentation of their predestined separation, once her visa expired at the end of summer.” — Melanie McWhorter, Photo-Eye

ABOUT

The project

SpineIndex is an archive of independent books on photography and visual culture: photobooks, publications, design books and self-published editions — the kind of work that rarely makes it into bookshop windows or mainstream catalogues. It exists to document, connect, and keep visible a world of publishers, artists, and makers who operate outside conventional distribution. A living reference for anyone who takes this territory seriously — collectors, researchers, students, and the simply curious.

Images and rights

Covers, interior pages and descriptions are shown to introduce and identify the books, always crediting publisher, author and photographer and linking back to the publisher. We ask publishers for their permission, and we remove anything on request within 7 days. If you are a publisher, an author or a photographer and you want something changed or removed, write to info@spineindex.it.
