Nathan Busscher bio picture

My Passion

Nathan started photography from a young age, as most photographers do. However, the spark didn't really ignite until much later in life. It all started when he got married and hired a photographer to document his Hawaii wedding. The twist came when the photographer he hired arranged to have a second photographer shoot the wedding as well. That second shooter happened to be a couple. So, one photographer turned into three. Nathan and his wife felt like celebrities being chased by the paparazzi all day. It was a great experience and he knew from that point he wanted to kick start his photography career (being a model wasn't an option... bald men in their 30's don't get modeling jobs).

This experience led to purchasing the latest digital slr with a range of professional lenses, reading every photography book he could get his hands on and emersing himself in everything photography related.

An african safari soon followed which further fueled the passion for photography. Travel has always been a obsession for Nathan and pairing the two were a winning combination.

However, it wasn't until Nathan entered a studio for the first time did he find his true calling. Being a part of the process to shoot new and experienced models, dancers, and other artists was where he really shined. Under the guidance of professional photographer Tim Porter, he learned the tricks of the trade while putting his own unique spin on the creative process.

Equador and Peru Holiday

We had some time because I had a change of jobs (yep… photography is not my full time gig… not yet at least).  Anyway, I was able to put together a last minute trip to visit the Galapagos islands and Machu Picchu in Peru.  I think we may have pushed ourselves to the limit on...
