Nick Carver is a working photographer and photography instructor based in Southern California with over eighteen years shooting experience and a professional career spanning more than a decade. Although his teaching and commercial work hinges primarily on digital photography, his passion is fueled by a love for analog film and creating fine art prints. Nick has sought to educate, entertain, and inspire other photographers both in the classroom and through his YouTube videos where he takes viewers "on location" or into the lab to see what happens behind the lens when a photo is created. When he's not teaching aspiring amateurs or working on an architectural photoshoot you'll likely find him peering at the ground glass of a panoramic view camera in the deserts of the American Southwest.
