Books by Tamura
Tamura's first solo exhibition — under the name Shigeru Tamura — was Yume no hikari (Dream light) in Ginza Nikon Salon in 1969. He became known for his somewhat harsh monochrome depictions of landscapes. In 1974 his works appeared within the "New Japanese Photography" show in the Museum of Modern Art, New York. Tamura made the stills for several of the late films of Akira Kurosawa, and has published a book of photographs taken on the sets of Kurosawa's films.

- 1.Akihide Tamura should not be confused with the well-known photographer Shigeru Tamura (1909–87), whose name is even written with the same kanji. (Perhaps part of the reason for the younger Tamura's change of name was to avoid this very confusion.)
