Aimee grew up in Australia and moved to Japan in 2019, where she had originally planned to stay for one year on a working holiday. However, falling in love with Japan's nature and the countryside scenery, she has lived in Japan ever since. Aimee loves nothing more than to capture an epic hike, snowboarding session or picturesque town on camera. Her current goal is to climb all of Japan's 100 famous mountains.
