As an avid outdoorsman, climber and cyclist, Nathan's passion for nature translates directly into his work.

When he's not shooting climbing, equestrian events or other outdoor sports, Nathan is busy documenting the weddings of super cool couples. Check out his wedding site here.

Nathan is available for editorial and commercial assignments, and has a stock collection of adventure and travel images from Nepal, Korea, Mexico, the Caribbean, Oceana and the western United States. His photography centers on climbing, adventure sports and equestrian events, all shot in a documentary, photojournalistic style.

Here's what some people have said about his work:

"When you get into the photo selection process for a project like this, it becomes clear who has it and who is just pretending. Your composition and fresh angles capture the real emotion from the viewpoint of the climber -- not from the onlooker, like so many photogs capture. Your shots really communicate and really stand out." - ROBB SHURR, THE ACCESS FUND

"Your use of depth of field and lighting is always so awesome ... You have a great eye ... The photos really made my job as art director easy!" - ALYSSA TAVERNIA, PRACTICAL HORSEMAN
