I’m Iris Nelson
hey there
Born & raised in Germany, I now reside with my husband in the Phoenix Metro Area. Although it can be challenging living in Arizona, I have become accustomed to the beauty in the desert.
After attending a photography conference in Seattle in October of 2016, I felt compelled to change my direction from family photography to personal & commercial branding, head shots, and individual portraiture. I love creating honest & authentic images, so no ‘trendy’ editing on my part.
I know that stepping in front of a camera can be daunting, uncomfortable, and awkward. I know that from my own experience. I promise you that we will have fun creating beautiful images you can be proud of.
My motto is: be FEARLESS - be BOLD - be YOU
My biggest accomplishment thus far: becoming a Click Pro Elite member in 2018.
follow:
be FEARLESS
be BOLD
be YOU
THE MAIN CHARACTER in your story is YOU.

CLIENT LOVE
Iris Nelson is a true professional with an amazing eye! For our daughter Alyssa’s senior pictures, we chose an outside location. Iris listened to our ideas and chose the backgrounds based on what Alyssa was wearing. They came out beautifully (some even look magical) and our daughter had a fun and wonderful experience. Thank you so much, Iris!
