I’m James Nader — a fashion, advertising, and fine art photographer with over 30 years’ experience creating images for global brands and publications. My career has taken me from London studios to rugged mountain tops, always chasing the interplay of light, shadow, and story.
Why monochrome?
Black & white photography has always been my obsession. It strips away distraction and reveals the truth of a subject. For me, it’s not just about removing colour — it’s about creating images with depth, mood, and timeless emotion.
Why teach?
After decades working at the top level, I realised the techniques that gave me a signature style were the very ones missing from how most photographers approach black & white. That’s why I built this course: to share my TRIOME™ system and give photographers like you the skills and confidence to make your work stand out.
By enrolling, you’ll not just learn my editing process — you’ll step into a way of seeing. Whether you’re building a fine art portfolio, shooting weddings, or chasing your next commission, my goal is to help you create work that clients, galleries, and audiences can’t ignore.

So Who Am I?
Black & white isn’t just a style — it’s a way of seeing the world. When you master it, your work stops being ordinary and becomes unforgettable. My mission is to help you unlock that vision, refine your craft, and step confidently into the photographer you were meant to be.
