Nick Brandt Does Photographer For A Living

Orla Brady husband Nick Brandt is an experienced photographer by profession. Nick has showcased his art in galleries and museums across the world.

The talented photojournalist was born and raised in London, England in 1964 to loving parents. He attended reputed Saint Martin's School of Art to learn about the craft.

Brandt has an immense love for the wild, reflected in his work. His muse's current deteriorating situation, including animals and nature, wrenches his heart.

So, he co-established a non-profit organization 'Big Life Foundation' in 2010. This foundation's primary goal is to safeguard Amboseli and Kilimanjaro's ecosystems. They have hired around 300 people for it.

Nick Professional Career

To expand his career, Brandt came to California in the year 1992. However, he started as a director of music videos. He was fortunate enough to work with the record-breaking musician Michael Jackson more than once.

As a director, his performance can be seen in the MJ music videos like 'Earth Song', 'One More Chance,' and 'Stranger in Moscow.' Thanks to the 'Earth Song' shot in East Africa, Nick instantly developed a liking for the place and its faunas.

He ventured into wildlife photography in 2001 with his first work named 'On This Earth', where he portrayed Africa's slowly deteriorating but amazing wildlife beauties. The final product of his work was published in 2004.

'On This Earth' was the first photobook in his trilogy. Then, Nick released the second one titled 'A Shadow Falls' in 2009, where 58 best photographs were featured.

Later, in 2013, he finally concluded his trilogy with the book 'Across the Ravaged Land'. It was different than the rest of his work because of the introduction of humans, except for animals into his art for the first time.

That same year, Brandt published another collection 'The Petrified' which was unique as its subject was animal carcasses. In 2016, his other book 'Inherit the Dust' was printed.

This collection was painfully beautiful as it depicted the unprecedented impact of mankind on the home of thousands of creatures. Similarly, he garnered worldwide recognition for his work 'This Empty World.'

Brandt published yet another eye-opening compilation of photographs showcasing the harmful effects of environmental degradation on humans and animals.

His new book titled 'The Day May Break: Chapter Two' will be released soon. The photo book signed by Nick is available to be pre-ordered now.

As he often does exhibitions, one of the latest was held at the Polka Galerie, an art gallery in Paris. His verified Instagram account has a follower count of almost 65000, while his Facebook account has a whopping 239000 followers.
