On first glance at the photography blog by Chris Nixon, one thing stands out…he is passionate about photography . His use of mixed media and minimalistic layout design, makes browsing through his site, both interesting and straightforward. The content is varied as not to confuse his site as just another online photo album. From reading about his background, it appears I am featuring yet another great San Francisco based photographer. Here an excerpt from bio :
Hi. I’m Chris Nixon. I’m the alter ego of another person who isn’t online. We’re pretty much exactly the same. We look alike, we have the same accent. He’s more a “doing” person, while I just tend to talk about it.
I was born in Brunei in Far East Asia more than 30 years ago. Typing that makes me feel old, but I’m really not. My dad worked for Decca, and my Mum did the rest. She’s Scottish, and my dad is English, though he doesn’t really like to admit it. We had a house in Hexham in Northumberland, England for a while…
Take a few moments to check out more great photography by Chris Nixon 1!
