Nate is a full-time photographer, most-of-the-time cinematographer, and sometimes director. Born and raised in the small beachside town of Carpinteria, Nate’s photographic journey began with his love for the ocean. In his early years he dedicated himself to photographing the world’s oceans during all seasons and swells, and by the age of 18 had amassed an award-winning body of work that speaks volumes about his willingness to throw caution to the wayside with grease on his hands and sand in his bags.
Since then, Nate has pulled other mediums and subjects into his focus. With a strong collection of commercial work for brands such as Apple, Patagonia, Bentley Motors, Blundstone, Hydro Flask, and McLaren, Nate has proven that the unique origin of his creative excellence sets the photographs he makes and the stories he tells apart from the rest.
Now, currently residing in Santa Barbara, CA, with the coastline and mountains only minutes away, Nate has found it to be an incredible home base for both his personal and commercial work alike.
