Mikko Takkunen is a photographer based in New York. He works as a photo editor at The New York Times's International desk.
He spent more than five years between 2016–2021 in Hong Kong as the desk’s Asia photo editor. During the last 18 months of that time he made photographs that became his debut photo book 'Hong Kong.'
"I approach picture-making as a kind of visual jazz. There should be beautiful melodies but the rest should be less obvious, less straightforward. There needs to be variation and improvisation from an overarching theme that holds it all together."
