With infrared film in his camera and a filtered flash, Kohei Yoshiyuki's explored Japanese voyeurism and exhibitionism and turned his dirty habit into a cult phenomenon. 
Yoshiyuki mostly likes to photograph couples getting frisky behind bushes in his native Tokyo.
Although Yoshiyuki's been on the scene since the late '70s/early '80s, his first show in the United States was last year at the Yossi Milo Gallery in New York.
This reminds me of the Blair Witch Project, but much sexier and more honest.
