Amyn Nasser’s photography exhibits at LUMAS Galleries worldwide including LUMAS Art Basel, LUMAS UAE, LUMAS Saudi Arabia, LUMAS Vancouver, LUMAS Toronto, LUMAS New York, and has exhibited at the LUMAS Art Basel Gallery Switzerland. Amyn has also exhibited at The Smithsonian Castle, Washington, D.C., and was the only official photographer exhibited at Vancouver Olympic Village, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
Amyn has photographed covers and fashion editorial stories for world-renowned magazines such as Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Elle, Cosmopolitan, Marie Claire, Glamour, L'Officiel, Men's Vogue, GQ, Rolling Stone, Max, Prestige International, Guest Informant, International Guide, Esquire, Brides, Clic, Amica and more, in France, Italy, Germany, Japan, Canada, and the United States.
As the exclusive west coast photographer for Prestige International Magazine Paris, shooting covers and ninety pages of fashion and architecture pages per issue, Amyn worked with a photography production team of models, celebrities, hair, makeup, stylists, assistants, videographers, production, post-production, and set decorators.
He has photographed a host of celebrities that include Rob Lowe, Jeff Goldblum, Prince, Sheila E., Iman, Claudia Schiffer, Carmen Electra, Carla Bruni, Carl Lewis, Jon Secada, Helena Christensen, Jean-Paul Goude, The Jackson Family, Wayne Gretzky, Claude Montana, Eva Herzigova, Sandrine Bonnaire, Sophie Marceau, Veronica Ferres, Susie Abromeit, Bria Murphy, and Donovan Leitch.
The landmark architecture Amyn has photographed includes the James F Goldstein residence in Los Angeles, California, which is part of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art collection of historic properties, and the Frank Gehry-designed residential estate and beaches (worth $57.5 million), for an exclusive 90-page fashion and architecture production. The 11,413 square-foot house with Gehry's asymmetrical style is unique in mid-twentieth-century modern architecture.
Amyn photographed the famous landscape titled Morbras Meeting Point that exhibited at Sotheby's Fine Art Chicago and auctioned at Sotheby's Fine Art New York for the Philip Glass House Modern Views auction. This landscape, designed by world-famous landscape architect Kathryn Gustafson, is in Roissy-en-Brie, France.
In appreciation of Amyn's spontaneous aesthetic style, he has been a Guest Photographer on several occasions to the Aga Khan at the estate of The Aga Khan in Aiglemont, France. There, Amyn photographed the Aga Khan and several world leaders for the estate’s historical archives and documentation.
Amyn’s consistently exemplary work keeps him in company with the most influential photographers worldwide. His work is always ahead of its time, and he is a pioneer in the field of image coloration. It is reminiscent of early 1960s artwork and has made a comeback to the world of photography because of Amyn's secret formula in photo editing and photoshop utilizing a cinematic Technicolor metallic formula that no one else has. His ten feet wide architecture photos were the first to be printed on high-grade luxury super gloss aluminum.
With a singular ability to tell visual stories, Amyn’s vision will last much into the future as a unique story-teller of the human condition. His extraordinary ability to translate his observations into the most memorable and timeless photographs allows him to remain prominent in his chosen field of photography. His work has a timeless aesthetic that is yet modern and fast.
Amyn Nasser’s photographs are available through LUMAS Galleries Worldwide, Trunk Gallery, Agents, Private Collectors and Collections.
Amyn’s work is in the collections of the Prince of Morocco, His Royal Highness Prince Moulay Rachid ben al-Hassan.

Statement: My work comprises of a spontaneous combustion of drama in cinematic tonalities I set up which brings out character tones of a split second capture perhaps somewhere sometime in my dreams or through the "sway" of East West Cultural Influences, however, regardless the woman is always empowered with her femininity - and style. It is an essence of a (the) moment, that is it, - which can be missed. I don't particularly "Pose" unless the "Pose" is a "Pose", if you get it. We are a Pose.
The work is Timeless. I do not keep any relevance to styles or trends going out as they never do. That, to me, is a misconception. Classy is knowing who you are.
The branding campaigns, advertising, editorial projects I have "shot" over the years have a clear imprint of my twist of style with a visual sensory journey. Most often with campaigns or editorials, the success of the project was large, and a sellout of the product - no matter if a luxury handbag, stocking, pantie, liptstick or bow tie, or magazine story.
Fait Accompli. It is All Glossy!
