NY, UNITED STATES, January 19, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — “Beautiful Things” by Yuko Yamazaki has been released worldwide. This 288-page photography collection features an array of gorgeous, carefully composed images that highlight the detail and beauty of everyday scenes. From architecture and cityscapes to quiet moments of ordinary life, Yamazaki’s eye for symmetry and contrast gives each black and white photograph a contemplative tone, inviting audiences to consider the beauty that exists all around them.
The range of subjects in Yamazaki’s work drives home this sense of beauty in all things. The photos, most of which were taken with a smartphone, span the natural and industrial, the massive and the miniscule, and pay homage to the broad world of designers and architects who create the things we often take for granted.
Each photograph is accompanied by a short, descriptive caption that indicates subject matter or location, with the majority of the images captured in New York City, locations across Europe, or in Yuko’s hometown in Japan – including family photos from childhood.
Throughout this collection, the images inspire a closer look at everyday objects and spaces, and more importantly, teach that beauty and appreciation of form can be found in every aspect of life. Yamazaki’s work is a window into the beauty she sees while moving through her world, and prompts audiences of all backgrounds to seek the same in their own.
“Beautiful Things” (ISBN: 9781962987974) can be purchased through retailers worldwide, including Barnes and Noble and Amazon. The hardcover retails for $35.99, and the ebook retails for $2.99. Review copies and interviews are available upon request.
