My name is Nathaniel, a Chicago-based creative professional, iced chai aficionado, learned home baker & person who stutters. I'm a commercial food, portrait & lifestyle photographer/videographer and marketing manager.
At the age of 18, I fell in love with the art of cooking/baking. At 19, I discovered a passion for photography. Today, I strive to capture moments through the lens of food, travel, and hospitality.
I have worked with numerous brands including Eggland's Best Eggs, Aberlour Scotch Whiskey, Aunt Millie's Bread, Colavita Olive Oil, & La Colombe Coffee.
Using the platform as a culture guide, I give my viewers a behind-the-scenes look into my daily life, travels, cultural finds, and current projects.
