Hello there! I’m Nada, Croatian photographer and art director living in Düsseldorf, Germany.
My photography journey started when I was 16 and since then it is my favorite medium to express myself. Having a background in art and design has given me a strong artistic vision and the ability to create visually appealing images and compositions. In my experience as an art director, I have worked on advertising campaigns where I gained knowledge about how important it is to create a strong brand identity and promote services to the right audience.
I have a bachelor degree in Visual Communication Design from Arts Academy in Split, Croatia. Over the years, I've showcased my work in various exhibitions, both solo and in groups. Art is a big part (and also a way) of my life and I love to indulge myself in personal art projects and experiment with analog film. I gather inspiration from diverse visual styles, be it painting, cinema, old photos and magazines or just everyday life.
Some of my clients include Düsseldorf Lyric Opera, Gedok A46 e.V., International Women in Business Düsseldorf, Vivazza Ensemble, Orfèvre Gallery, Em Pootzke Düsseldorf, FeWo Butler, English Theatre Düsseldorf, many musicians, artists and private people. I am experienced in portrait, event, lifestyle and landscape photography.
We can chat in Croatian, English or German :)
Looking forward talking to you!
