ABOUT JAMES NADER

Nice to meet you

My background in photography is firmly rooted in traditional analogue methods. I have built my unique cinematic style around this underlying understanding. It weaves narratives in fashion, capturing intimate and aspirational moments. My method helps my clients stand out in the competitive field of fashion photography by giving them a leg up in visual storytelling.

I am dedicated to developing my artistic viewpoint as an artist who is ever-present in the ever-changing business world. I photograph a wide variety of clients in my fashion editorial and creative work. With every new project comes the chance to test the limits of what is considered "normal" photography and discover uncharted territory.

My passion for photography extends beyond the mere act of documenting moments; it extends to the creation of narratives, ideas, and stunning visuals that convey nuance, feeling, and flair. As we push photography to its boundaries, I invite you to accompany me on this adventure of discovery.

Throughout my successful career as a location, portrait, and advertising photographer, I have become recognised for my creative approaches to capturing light. I am a British photographer. Numerous prestigious brands and campaigns, both nationally and internationally, have featured my work, which has earned praise from art buyers and editors.

I established a special place for myself in the photography and filmmaking profession by focusing on the timeless cinematic approach. Thanks to my eight years of experience as a producer and creative director at a top digital firm, I am well-versed in the many facets of production.
