Nick Franken
The Netherlands - Belgium
Nick Franken is a full-time portrait and advertising photographer and art director, working across the Netherlands and Belgium. He describes his work as "storytelling through photography", helping companies visually convey their narrative. This includes photography, image editing, and art direction.
Nick views photography and film as something pure and raw, where an image should evoke a feeling. He believes that every person is unique and beautiful, which lies at the heart of his portrait and commercial photography – always placing people at the centre. He places strong emphasis on the importance of art direction in his work.
With 16 years of experience, Nick has specialised in various genres, including corporate portraits, lifestyle, conceptual, and advertising photography. He combines his photography skills with CGI and, more recently, AI to create unique visuals. In addition to his commercial work, Nick is also actively involved in numerous art projects, primarily analogue photography.
