Nick is a photographer with a career that spans over 15 years. Since he was a kid, he experimented a lot with digital art, but only since last year, he also uses his CG skills commercially for his clients.

The fact that Nick is also a full seasoned photographer gives him the benefit of mastering the whole pipeline of creating a digital image. This means the technique, art direction and R&D lays on one person. That makes it faster and also more cost efficient.

"This year's goal is to try to get more in the entertainment industry and to gain more creative advertising assignments. A personal click with the client is a must, because next to great results, a great cooperation is very important. Life must be fun!"

Nick is always eager to help and think along with his clients about great creative concepts that make their story come to life.

Based in The Netherlands, Nick Franken is a Dutch photographer and retoucher who is known and appreciated for his surreal artistic eye. Nick always finds the extraordinary inside the ordinary by visualising the story behind every photo that he captures. His exceptional skills and the quality of his work gives life to those images and a visual treat for his clients. Commercial, advertising, sports and portrait are Nick's specialities, and he also has a wide range of experience in all kinds of fields. 

"It's not just work, it is my way of life. I really enjoy making beautiful images with and from other people. I like creating bad-ass images! I'm inspired by music, life, sports, people, my beloved ones. I'm an optimist, someone that always sees a solution for everything. Everything can be done."

As a kid, Nick Franken always practiced sports. From playing tennis, doing athletics, jumping and grinding on his skates, to practising calisthenics. When Nick started as a photographer in the middle of the economical crisis, he shot a lot of corporate assignments.

Later on in his career he realised that he never mixed his two passions; sports and photography. With his experience in staged photography for his corporate and industrial clients in the most difficult places, he started to focus on staged sports photography. Unfortunately Covid-19 has delayed some of his latest assignments.

Strong, creative, passionate and full of muscle power, Nick commits himself to making epic shots for the sports industry.

Nick Franken sees photography as something pure and raw. "You have to experience a photo, you can love it but you can also hate it. As long as it generates a feeling! Every human being is unique, every human being is beautiful on his/her own way. Working with people and creating stories with them is the most beautiful part of photography."

With over 14 years of experience in photography and retouching Nick is specialised in portrait, commercial, editorial and corporate photography.

What Nick’s work identifies is his raw but balanced signature. Every photograph he makes is a narrative image!
