Growing up in a multi cultural home, he was inspired to explore cultures, places, languages and people as a way of life. Since picking up a camera, he has never stopped documenting his world.
Photography is the perfect artistic expression for him. « I've found that it's the in-between moments when my subjects relax that I am able to capture the most authentic moments. That's what I love. »
Niv creates images that are inspired from life, real people, candid moments, landscapes and memories. Loving to travel, he spent two years touring Europe, shooting and absorbing the cultures.
Capturing provocative, sensual, contemplative and tender moments, he mostly works on location and always shoots with a narrative in mind, creating a fresh experience with each of his subjects.
His collaborates with clients and magazines such as Icon, Nylon, Liberation next, Wül, Out, L'Express styles, Arena, Capitol records, EMI records, Bully pictures, Misha Nonoo, Katy Perry and New York City Opera.
Niv has also directed various Films and Music Videos including Ride, Force of Movement, and Freedom. He has been exhibited recently in Paris and at Fahey Klein Gallery in Los Angeles
