ANTHONY NEX / LA – CULVER CITY
“My name is Anthony Nex, and I’m a commercial photographer specializing in Still Life, Kids and People, both still and motion. I’m based out of my studio in the Helms Bakery complex on the edge of Culver City and LA.”
I grew up in Santa Monica, and while in high school broke a few bones skateboarding and starting shooting my friends skating. Those friends were later featured in the documentary Dogtown and the Zboz (I’m in the background of a few scenes) and the feature film Lords of Dogtown. From there I went to college and out assisting. My first commercial shoot was with an unknown fashion designer named Gianni Versace, and it’s been a steady stream of clients since then.
INSPIRATION
“What inspires me is the way light attaches itself to people and objects, and using that light and the emotion of people to tell a story.”
A UNIQUE PERSPECTIVE
“Photography to me means capturing a moment, and showing a unique perspective to others. If you are doing something you love you’ll never work a day in your life. So far I’ve been able to do that”
