This book is a collection of photographs taken over the three and a half years from the time she was 17 until now, when she turned 20. The book was photographed by Masumi Ishida, an up-and-coming young photographer who, at only 23 years old, has worked for magazines such as "GINZA" and "POPEYE," as well as on numerous artworks, including creative work for "Calorie Mate" advertisements. Yagi and Ishida's relationship began when they met at a magazine shoot in December 2018. The two, who naturally shared an affinity for each other, deepened their friendship in their private lives and continued to shoot together in their spare time between assignments. The filming took place in Yagi's hometown of Shiga, Hokkaido (the setting of the drama), Tokyo (his new life), and at a joyous coming-of-age ceremony, making for a road movie of sorts. Ishida's lens responded to Yagi's subtle messages through her facial expressions, and they shared a fragile but hopeful time together as she moved from her teens to her 20s, and Ishida captured the "light" within Rikako Yagi in photographs by observing Yagi's complex and wavering emotions and changing state of mind. Ishida captured the "light" within Rikako Yagi.
