I'm from Manchester, England, but go to school in Seattle, Washington.
I'm studying entrepreneurship because it sounds impressive and pretentious.
I'm still trying to find a photographical style that I'm comfortable with.
I'm 19 years old and I'm down with Twitter
I'm Nathan Makan.

Stephen Chinnadorai says:
"Nathan is an awe-inspiring photographer; his photos always have a meaning behind them. All of Nathan's photos also share a similar, distinctive style – one that can only be found in his Flickr stream."

"This guy loves porn shops and dirty stuff like that, infact i don't think he loves anything more..Except Brian, He loves Brian more than he loves apple products and all that stuff. So, Good luck with Brian!
P.S I expect an invite to the wedding."25th May, 2008

"I wish Nathan and Brian all the best. Let's hope Nathan will pass on some of those photography skills so they can take some rather exciting photos together. ;)"

"*nathan touched me in ways that I've never been touched before. Mainly on my leg. It was sexual.
His photos are alright too, I guess."18th May, 2008

"Just like Seb, there isn't much to say that hasn't been said before.
This man/guy/dude/tourist has professional photography skills (and gear), sweet Apple products, excellent taste in music, some of the best comments and notes ever, and much more. When he added me as a contact a tear formed in my eye*. Not to mention he has one of the best photostreams on Flickr.
He travels cool places,
takes some incredible pictures,
with his sweet photo gear,
while listening to the best music,
uploads pictures to his awesome Macs,
and leaves great comments on our pictures,
all while making sure his hair looks good for his self-portrait-in-a-mirror-shots.
He is Nathan Makan.
*= Not really."2nd April, 2008

Seb Payne says:
"What is there to say that hasn't been said? Why haven't I written this before? Just after I came back to Mac after years on the LInux side, Nathan showed me the way, with his love of all things Apple. His photos are crisp, clear and all round brilliant. Mac, Emo(ish) and a damn great person. Always up for banter on AIM and Twitter too. Expect to see this fellow go far in the US one day, but remember me matey!"

"Nathan is Mr. Awesome.
Apple. Apple. Apple. NYC. Twitter. Britain. Starbucks... and much more.
He also takes some nice photos somehow not in relation to "Apple, Inc.", on few very, very rare occasions."29th December, 2007

"Nathan,nathan,nathan. The year 8 scally who once had a major obsession with "T'N" traininers and hats. O how my lil boy has changed! Quite possibly the only person in the world who loves Japan, Apple, MySpace, America, pussycats, sweater-vests, tony&guy hair products, moisturiser and calippo's in the winter. Your a strange 1 aren't ya. Must note his ability to name all the states of America and there Capital's! and speak a lil bit of Janpanese xoxo"

"Nathan is undoubtedly the most Apple obsessed person I've ever know, but that's a good thing. He's also the most American Brit I know. Nathan gets his Macintosh budget straight from Parliment, although they're both pretty hush-hush about it, so don't bring it up. If you go through Nathan's stream, you'll find some pretty nice non-Apple related photos. I'd highly recommend doing so :D.
Nathan and I are going to go to the Fifth Avenue Apple Store at 3AM one day."8th April, 2007

"Avalanches of comments. That describes most of his pics ;)
There is great mystery around his table and can he can it so clean.
Now where's my hair-wax? Need to fix my fringe!
Don't forget."Girls get it first!" :P"7th March, 2007

"Mr.Nathan
He is a very cool dude, everything he says is cool. Apple is his world. No more to be said. He has a great eye for a photo, and no matter what it is, Its great. Everyone loves him. :)
The end."26th January, 2007

Justin Brown. says:
"Nathan probably spends double what we pay on Apple products per year, but remember, thats a good thing. Overall, Nathan takes awesome pictures ranging from travel to unpacking pictures of a sleek new apple product. If anyone is looking for an awesome set of Apple related photos, they should definately check out his photostream. I don't know Nathan at all really but he seems pretty cool."

"Nathan definitely does have an obsession with Apple, but I mean, that's what's so damn cool about him, guys!
Glenn's got it right. He adds feeling and almost a story-like feel to his photos. You keep wanting to check for more.
Nathan, anytime I'm fishing for Apple "porn" I come on over to your Flickr. I can look at your setup a billion times and still not get tired of the beautiful clean feel to it.
He is also a stand up guy. Funny, friendly. Nathan's got it going on... =D"10th July, 2006

lukemontague says:
"As the previous testimonial says, Nathan likes/loves/obsesses over Apple.
On the non-Apple side, he does have a pair of converse, and a pretty cool non-apple-related camera. Oh and a good taste in music, especially as he likes The Postal Service.
On the down side, Nathan likes the colour pink. His many names make up for that though..."20th June, 2006

Glenn Wolsey says:
"Nathan has an obsession with Apple Computers (don't we all) and he is an amazing technology photographer.
He adds meaning to his pictures of tech and often creates stories from them.
Great Apple gear, great DVD collection, great music taste, Nathan has it all!"16th May, 2006
