About
Nile grew up traveling with his father, a professional photographer, watching him capture the emotions of people during both meaningful and daily events in their lives. He is a keen observer and developed his own unique talents in photojournalism, now chronicling in photographs and film the genuine moods and natural moments of a lifetime.
With a lifelong career in documentary filmmaking and photojournalism working for non-profit organizations around the globe, Nile brings with him immense experience in working with families of different cultures and backgrounds. His work captures the candid experiences that organically unfold in life and showcase the beautiful nature of his clients.
Nile’s passion to tell the organic stories in life led him to sharing with couples their most exceptional day: a wedding, marriage, or celebration of love. He has been showcasing the joy and pure nature of these occasions since 2008, presenting photographs and films that embody the beauty and wonder of lives coming together.
When working with Nile, couples receive a personalized experience in wedding photography and videography. Because Nile limits the number of couples with which he works, Mendocino Photo & Video offers a boutique wedding videography experience. Nile provides individual attention to each couple, making the entire experience all the more intimate and special. Nile is a true people person with a warmhearted spirit, jovial nature, and an endearing ability to make those around him feel comfortable. This makes Nile a welcoming wedding-day photographer and videographer and one whose presence is never obtrusive. His tenured experience puts wedding-day couples at ease, letting them be present to experience their momentous occasion without worrying about the camera.
Capturing people’s hearts is both a lifestyle and a passion that comes innately for Nile, and his rapport-building and guidance are genuine. Having grown up on the Mendocino Coast and spending his life in the North Bay and wine country communities, Nile also understands the special lighting and locations of the local area and how best to harness their aesthetic. He is comfortable traveling, and quick to adapt and creatively improvise when a challenge arises.
With Mendocino Photo & Video, couples can relax on their wedding day and be more present, knowing that they will be able to relive all the beautiful moments later through Nile’s very personal and incredible work.
