I’m Nat, a professional sports & portrait photographer

I am most alive behind the camera and love what I do!

Let's chat!

ABOUT ME...


If you ask anyone who knows me, they'll tell you two things pretty quickly, I'm almost always carrying a camera and if there's a game under the lights somewhere, I'm probably on the sidelines.


Photography isn't just what I do it's who I am and how I tell stories.


I love capturing the moments that make people stop and smile years later. Whether it's a senior celebrating one of life's biggest milestones, an athlete chasing the next big play, a family making memories together, or a business building its brand, I believe every session deserves creativity, intention, and attention to detail.


Sports photography has a special place in my heart. There's something incredible about freezing a split second of determination, emotion, and celebration that might otherwise be gone forever. My goal is to create images that don't just show what happened, they make you feel like you're right back in that moment.


At Black Diamond Photos, I focus on creating an experience that's relaxed, fun, and personalized. You don't have to know how to pose or what to do in front of the camera, that's my job. I'll guide you every step of the way so your personality shines through naturally.


Based in Austin, Texas, I'm proud to work with athletes, seniors, families, businesses, and brands throughout Central Texas and beyond. From Friday night football and championship celebrations to senior portraits and commercial branding sessions, I approach every shoot with the same passion and commitment to creating images you'll be proud to share for years to come.


When I'm not behind the camera, you'll usually find me exploring the outdoors, cheering my kids on in whatever sport they are playing at the moment, binge watching crime television or trying out a new food truck in Austin!


Thank you for stopping by. I can't wait to tell your story.


Let's create something unforgettable together.
