Welcome
I'm Nancy Chadwick — a fine art photographer capturing the beauty of the natural world, from the golden hills of California to the plains of Africa. Each photograph begins as a moment of wonder in the field, and is transformed in post-processing into something entirely its own: part photograph, part painting.
Whether you're building a collection or looking for the one piece that completes a room, I'd love to help you find a photograph that speaks to you.

About me
Photography, for me, has always been about more than capturing a place — it's about capturing a feeling…capturing a story.
My photography takes me around the world, from repeated safaris across Africa — where I've spent countless hours photographing wildlife in their natural habitat — to the quiet, golden landscapes surrounding my home in California.
Each image begins in the field, but its final form comes later, in post-processing, where I use contemporary digital tools to reshape the photograph into something that feels closer to the wonder of a moment I captured it.
“In the end nobody knows how it’s done – how art is made. It can’t be explained. Optical devices are just tools. Understanding a tool doesn’t explain the magic of creation. Nothing can.”
~David Hockney

Small prints arrive in a flat package while large prints are shipped in a tube.
If your print arrives in a shipping tube. it is strongly advised that you do not try to uncurl the print yourself. To protect your piece of art it is best that you take the uncurled print to a professional framer who knows how to safely uncurl and mount and frame your print. It is best for your framer to dry-mount the work on acid-free board using archival tissue and materials. This will ensure that your print will remain flat once framed. Note that it is common for prints to have waves when unrolling for the first time.
