I am a globally published photographer based in Bristol, TN/VA. My work has been published in over 60 countries in numerous publications, including multiple covers and hundreds of billboards.


My relationship with photography has been an extensive one, accelerating immensely after moving to Colorado in 2002. I began photographing the incredible landscapes there with a friend's film camera and after travelling abroad evolved into portraiture photography, traveling abroad in 2008 (I proposed to my wife in Paris), my interests evolved into ultimately leading to the formation of Nathan Mays Photography in 2010.


Nathan Mays Photography serves Northeast Tennessee/Southwest Virginia and beyond. I specialize in contemporary high school senior portraits, pageant/corporate headshots, and branding photography. I regularly travel across the USA and abroad. From Denver to Dubai, no client is too far away. 


If you are looking for a photographer who can make any client comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera, look no further. Whether you are a Fortune 500 CEO or a high school senior, you will feel completely at ease during your session. I have photographed thousands of subjects and take pride in the fact that my clients have fun and enjoy themselves way more than they ever thought they would. I look forward to working with you!
