ABOUT Nina

Nina Robinson’s work as a documentary photographer is characterized by a tenderness and emotional depth that captures the essence of her subjects. Her images have been praised for their cinematic quality and visceral impact, revealing the humanity in every story she tells. Robinson’s work has been featured on a range of international platforms, including Netflix, Lifetime, RollingStone, the New York Times, and TIME, demonstrating the breadth and depth of her talent.

Robinson’s photography covers a wide range of subjects across the US, from timeless portraiture to editorial, commercial, and documentary assignments. She is dedicated to breaking down visual prejudices related to race, gender, class, and age, using her camera to challenge and expand our understanding of the world around us.

In addition to her wide-ranging work, Robinson is also exploring more personal themes in her photography, including the concepts of home, memory, endings, and beginnings. She is interested in how these themes manifest in the world and in our individual lives, using her camera to capture the ways in which these universal experiences can be uniquely personal and deeply meaningful.

As an artist and community builder, Robinson’s work is guided by a deep commitment to using photography as a tool for healing, empowerment, and social change. Through her innovative Phototherapy program developed in 2015 with senior citizens at William Hodson Community Center in the Bronx, she has seen firsthand how photography can help individuals explore personal and social issues in a safe and supportive environment.

Robinson’s work is rooted in the belief that photography has the power to foster meaningful conversations, promote understanding, and diversify visual narratives. By working with diverse communities, she aims to connect with individuals to expand knowledge and promote social equity. Robinson’s past work with older residents demonstrates her dedication to social justice and ability to use art to navigate difficult topics.

“One of the greatest things we can do is to use the gifts within us to help others to see or engage in ways that heighten their frequency levels. Encouraging them to build upon what they already have within them.” —Nina Robinson
