Nikolai Pozdniakov has been fascinated by photography all his life. Before moving to the Unites States as a child, he had already begun training his eye by shooting on film. But it was with the emerging technology of digital photography that he learned to really express himself.

A photographer is more than just someone who uses a camera, so while the industry made better and better cameras, Nikolai became a better photographer. He honed his skills capturing human, wildlife, and urban subjects.

Living in New York City gives Nikolai almost limitless photographic opportunities. But he doesn’t just take from the city…he also gives back. Nick volunteers as a photographer at the National Historic site of Fort Wadsworth . When he’s not traveling to shoot in remote or exotic locations, he hosts workshops so that he can teach, connect with, and learn from other photographers. Nikolai is also an active member of a large online community of photographers where amateurs and professionals come together to share their work and improve their skills.

Nikolai believes that people should not lose touch with their planet. He frequently turns his eye from the cement and glass and steel toward the splendor of the natural world. He tries to capture the spirit of nature…and share with others the simple wonder of the living Earth.

His commitment to client satisfaction is as evident as his talent. As a professional, Nikolai takes pride in delivering high-quality results within tight deadlines. Clients can usually see proofs as early as one day after the shoot.

So that he can offer flexible on-site photographic services, Nikolai uses the latest in Nikon camera bodies and lenses, along with Nikon’s Creative Lighting System.

Skill and dedication have combined to make Nikolai Pozdniakov a unique and successful photographic professional. Take a few minutes to view the fine examples of his work in events, portraiture, landscapes and cityscapes, and the natural world.
