I am an editorial photographer and DP/cinematographer specializing in the fields of portrait photography, feature, and video production storytelling, but my background is a bit contradictory to my creative career. Despite my devotion to visual storytelling for more than a decade, I graduated with a degree in Biological Chemistry with a focus in Neuroscience from Grinnell College. Yes, you read that correctly… a photographer with an analytical mind and a penchant for science and experimentation. After earning my degree, I honed my visual storytelling abilities around the country in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, and the Deseret News in Salt Lake City. Since then, I heard the siren song of the Midwest calling me home. I am now currently based in Minneapolis, Minnesota freelancing for The New York Times, Reuters, Bloomberg , and various editorial news outlets and global brands. From breaking spot news to in-depth features and every story in between, I am a photographer who delivers skillfully-crafted, compelling imagery across a plethora of subjects with a creative AND analytical mind. I focus on isolating peak moments of emotion, engagement, and access. I'm devoting my career to crafting authentic, engaging stories through both photography and video to uncover truly unique narratives and individuals for editorial, agency, and corporate clients. I am available for immediate contract and freelance work in Minnesota, the Midwest, and projects around the world. Additionally, I am an FAA Part 107 certified drone pilot, enabling me to craft multi-dimensional stories and perspectives for my creative partners

Hi, my name is Nick Clausen and I am a digital filmmaker from St. Paul, Minnesota. I started working in television news 20 years ago, and now I shoot and edit documentaries. Stories that are meaningful to me usually have a social element to them. I'm currently following a light-rail construction project that is tearing apart a neighborhood in Saint Paul. Coming from a news background there is a freedom to creating my own documentaries: it gives me time to tell a story in-depth, and allows me to create an intimacy with my characters, so in return, the audience will connect with the characters as well.

I prefer to opt outside. The wilderness is my happy place. I like being on the road and chasing the next story. No matter the project, I can shoot it and help create your dazzling vision.
