BIO

This is the page description.

—  Rich Nardo  — 

I am a Long Island-based nature photographer with a passion for capturing the beauty of landscapes and wildlife. For as long as I can remember, nature has been my grounding force—a place where I feel centered and inspired. Through photography, I preserve these moments of serenity and wonder, finding joy, peace, and a deeper connection to the world around me. My work has been featured in notable publications such as Connecticut Insider, The Great South Bay Newspapers, and Newsbreak, as well as on official platforms like Long Island Tourism, the Village of Greenport, and Jones Beach State Park's Instagram accounts. Each image I create reflects my profound appreciation for the natural world and the connections it fosters. In addition to my photography, I’m a partner at Flux88 Studios and 360 immersive web experience company, Metimmerse, where we've collaborated with renowned artists, athletes, and brands, including Trevor Noah, Sia, Cypress Hill, Ice T & Body Count, Patrick Willis, Brian Dawkins, American Greetings, and Death Row Records. Beyond photography, I’m a writer, producer, and voice actor for the Lil Thrashers and Bohrsville universes. I also share my journey of growth and creativity through my weekly "Hey Nardo" Substack, where I offer insights into both personal and professional discovery.
