Hajime Sawatari - Hitoe Otake "Hitoe" - 1994

"Hitoe Ohtake (born February 5, 1972, in Toshima, Tokyo) is a Japanese actress represented by Very Berry Production. While attending Kyoritsu Women’s Junior College, she entered the Miss Japan contest on the recommendation of a training school and won the 1994 title. In the same year she published the photobook Hitoe, which became a bestseller with seven printings between 1994 and 1998 and was later reissued in paperback. Following this success, she debuted as an actress and gained attention with leading roles in Toei V-Cinema productions, earning recognition as a prominent figure in that field. She later expanded into television dramas, where her antagonist roles in Tokai TV’s daytime series were particularly noted, and in recent years she has also built a career on stage, performing in productions such as Tenshu Monogatari, Nihonbashi, and Umekawa Chubei. In August 2020 she announced her affiliation with Very Berry Production. Height: 165cm, Blood type B. Hajime Sawatari (born January 1, 1940, in Tokyo) is a Japanese photographer known for his wide-ranging work in female portraiture and for publishing photobooks such as Alice. He began taking photographs in junior high school and won multiple awards in the monthly contests of Sankei Camera during high school. While studying in the Department of Photography at Nihon University College of Art, he published works in magazines such as Camera Mainichi and Josei Jishin. After graduation he joined the Nippon Design Center, later became freelance in 1966, and started working for fashion magazines. He gained high recognition with the photobook Alice, created from a collaboration with editors and the young British model Samantha, and later produced new works with the Italian model Nadia. Although he experienced a slump in his 40s, he overcame it in his 50s and continued his career with a focus on female photography. Noticeable damage from age and use (such as scuffs, bent corners, or small tears) is present, but the item is complete and usable.
