About me
I grew up in Malaysia, went to high school in Singapore and then on to university in New Zealand where I studied Economics and Business Administration. I now live in Zurich, Switzerland, having moved here in 2002.
In the last few years I've rediscovered photography and through a combination of self-education and participating in formal workshops have progressed from vacation snaps to taking a more considered approach.
My main interest is in discovering and documenting the world, experiencing the magic and wonder of different cultures and lands - from the exoticism and contradictions of Cuba, to the passion of Sicilian Easter rituals, as well as looking deeper into the picture postcard country I now live in.
I am a member of LUMEN, an independent photographer's cooperative. I am an editor of Swiss Peeks, a series of Swiss photography books and co-moderator of DigifotoCH, an online community for English-speaking photographers based in Switzerland.

Ilona Angervuo says:
"Nick has an eye for all kinds of things. He's a versatile photographer, but what I love the most are his people studies. He takes his photos without hassle, people can feel themselves comfortable when he's around with his camera. That leads to the photos being natural, the facial expressions are mostly unposed and relaxed.
Not only a skilled photographer, Nick is also a cunning linguist! He's a man with a gorgeous sense of humour and a good heart. I'm very glad and honoured to consider him my friend.
Hugs,
Ilona"30th January, 2007
