Nina I. Andersen Photography

You have an amazing affinity for eyes. I love the photographs.

Hi Nina, I like the pin sharp and clear appearance of your pictures. This professional style fits very well to your obviously mainly preferred subject: The eyes of beings. Regards, Peter.

These photo's are lovely. The eyes are the mirror of the soul as they say!! Regards Helen

I really like your images..I smiled when I saw your pictures... and as a art.. it important to have viewers react.....if you have a chance.. take a look at a view of my pictures...some are similar to your...

Beautiful images, congrats. I admire Your work!!!!!!!

Well done folder.

There's something about the character of your images that causes me to smile in contemplation. What IT is, I don't know yet; perhaps I'll come back and discover what it is...? Right now, I'm enjoying your images, disregarding what exactly it is that attracts me to them.... can it be the way you captured the eyes? Hey, good show, Nina. Very good indeed! You're developing a really unique style of your own, and I like it.

Nina, congrat for POW , you should frame this photo for your lovely daughter - I suggest this title: Ms Photo.net - 3rd week of Feb 2004 :)

Its Beautiful, shes a doll, I looked at your photographs and you really are the artist, awesome, you keep on going your the tops, love you work, where are you from, i live in california, usa, how about you? lisa

Great work!

Where did you get the talent...

After reviewing your work I am embarrassed at my use of the 10D, or any camera for that matter. Your images are captivating! Very nice.

Beautiful and great work!!

I realy like your work, but I would like to see both of you together in the same shot, there is some thing dynamic between you two that would simply electrify an image!

Incredibly enchanting!!! Ooo... Wow!

Very nice!!!

You inspire and uplift and give me something to work towards

You all make this a great place to be :)

Youu have quite an eye. Beautiful work

very well done!

hi Nina, Thanks for visiting my portfolio... your pictures are really excellent, more than once I commented on them... your macros are outstanding, the way you portrait people is so unique: the eyes are great, expecially those of Martine. I think you are truly one of the best artist here on PN. Hope one day will get at least half as good as you.

Jeg liker bildenen dine. Datteren din er veldig s�t! Bambi �yne! Jeg har ogs堢es�kt eyesondesign siden din, og gjort noen av tutorialene. Du er flink. Setter deg paa "interesting people" listen min jeg hvis det er greit:)

What do you do to the eyes of the children in Martime? MW

Awesome!!. I just keep dropping in to your folder very often just to get a glimpse of those eyes.

Very impressed!!!

Prasana

You are an awesome awesome awesome inspiration to us all, Nina. Looking through your pics, I can really sense the amazing relationship with your daughter - i think it's beautiful.

A really beautiful portfolio.Congrats.

:)))

Hi nina, i am really impressed with the kid's picture you shoot. I was caught here by looking a very original and asymmetrical portrait of two girls, but when i started browsing your portfolio i understood it was much more than one well done shot, this is methodical. You are very talented in portaiture, many pictures you made are eye-catching as their composition strongly attract and invite to explore the image. I admit that browsing the portfolio one can be really distracted by all those big eyes, at first sounds repetitive... but try seeing the images one by one, weighting the balance and the realization and you get a completely different idea.

I do appreciate your posting on PN, i hope you continue giving me (and us) emotions.

regards giuseppe

Love the eyes. Just love them! Great portfolio.

Thanks for these wonderful images.

I am impressed of your talent to catch this expressive eyes on your photos. I like it very much.In my opinion the highest rate for you. Congrat. and regards V.A

I really like the way you have captured the children with feeling and emotion. They don't look bored or distracted. Quite a portfolio

Nina, I loved your work! All the portraits are really wonderfull.

Your photos are soothing by there beauty. It gives you a signature of your own. Plato wrote that the eyes were the mirror of the soul. I get an even greater lesson by your portfolio. Thanks a lot Nina. Keep posting ill check back often.

Love your photos, especially the portraits!

the kid pics are great.......nice work

Beautifull pertfolio,Great work!! BRAVA!!!

Simply the best, my favourite portfolio... if I had your talent...

He , hei, GRATULERER!! Jeg var bor i Norge men n堢or i Chile.Jeg er "phptographer" also men din portafolio er kjempe bra.Mis saludos cordiales para ti, good job!!

Nina, As always it is great to see your work again. I have not talked to you in a long time and I still go to your website from time to time. You continue to produce the most wonderful portraits and the "Eyes" are magnificant. Keep up the great work and don't be a stranger to submitting your work.

Martine is for me the most cute subject one photo.net , just take a look at her eyes for one moment, juste one second and we get addicted to them! This is a precious little girl, take care of her, i think its the best subject that anyone can get! and you, one of the best photograph i saw in the place! congratulation, 7/7 :P

After visiting here so often it was about time I said not a lot just I'll be back again and again. louis PS I just did a shot of a 1yr old who has big eyes like the girl. He is in my people folder but I'll be putting up a portrait soon.

You have an amazing portfolio! Keep posting!

I like your photos very much :)

Martine is beautiful. A wonder for photography. If only we all had the chance to catch those entrancing eyes. Your photos are so wonderful. Aah i am so... i hate to say it, but jealous. Good luck to you! Your art is more than Gorgeous, God-like.

Very good portfolio, the portraits and folwers are really greats!!!.

Saludos.

Alberto.

Very good portfolio. I like you portraits a lot. You have beautifull little models;). I wish you more good photos. DDD

Absolutely awesome portfolio, all your shots have great eyes and expression. The composition is always right on!

complimenti portfoglio molto bello mi piace il tuo modo di scattare foto good works

I actually joined this site so that I could post a comment to you.

You're a better photographer than you realize - you have an exceptional gift. You have an afinity for eyes well seen -- everyone sees and remarks at that. But the big engine in your work that comes both before and after your technical competence in rendering eyes is the personal charisma that you bring to the effort. Your subjects LIKE you and open their eyes wide to see you better and to be seen by you. Every picture ever made of a person is a record of a relationship (or its sad absence). The relationship your pictures manifest are wonderfuly giving. This is the best thing in your work.

Photography is always necessarily ABOUT something. Much of the work on this board (a lot of which is fiercely competent) is about... photography and craft. And phototgraphy in and of itself is finally not that interesting. What is really fascinating is when the subject is what the photographer KNOWS that the rest of us can NOT know. All of us can learn technical tricks. NONE of us have your relationship with your models - nor could we ever.

When we are young in our work we want the world to see all the things we can do well. Bees and landscapes. But the art world wants to see refinement, focus and even obsession because that raises the nature of the artist's access to levels that cause us to gaze up in admiration.

Your bees are competent, ditto the rest of your work. But did you notice in people's comments how riveted they all are by your stunning facial portraits? That is where they are seeing YOU the most clearly and they are understandably moved in the event.

Very Best,

jock sturges

BEAUTIFUL ALL WORK.REGARDS.....

Greetings, ----you understand the window to the human soul better than most---wonderful and mesmerizing photos of the eyes----

Congrats

your kids have most penetrating eyes, and you also have an equally sharp eye. very impressive pictures.

I always come to your portfolio when i want to be inspired, thanks so much for sharing

a photographer is one who knows what's the best feature of a person, and u know exactly that. Heidi was well shot. kudos.

seldom have I seen such beautiful children's portraits !

erwin

as someone who also enjoys portaits i must say i truly admire the gift you have. yes your models are intriguing and interesting and have beautiful eyes but it is you who has managed to capture their beauty. you do a phenomenal job. keep it up. the rest of us have a thing or two to learn from you. thank you.

danene

You are a sensitive woman and I apreciate your preferece for the people pics.

You are a good photographer

regards

You have an awesome talent for capturing eyes and expression, so many wonderful shots!

I have just been looking through your immense collection. I was quite inspired as I am useless at portraits in particular. I wonder if you could take a look at only two portraits that I have done and make any suggestions for me. I would be grateful for any assistance.

your portraits are stunning.

Bravo!

B E A U T I F U L REALY BEAUTIFUL.Best regsrds.

Your images are absolutely stunning. You have an eye for the eyes and capture the soul of each and every one.

Excellent work Nina. I just joined here recently and was exploring all these beauty. Your works are splendid. You might understand my feeling..my daughter brought me into photography. I like to see her infront of the lens as I do whereever she is. Wonderful world!

excellent portfolio,portraits,macros all fantastic..

Great great work, particularly with the informal portraits of the children. They are all captivating. I love the crispness and the engaging way you capture the children's eyes.

sensitiveness and love

Wow. As has been stated wonderfull capture. Some of the best photos I have are of my wife and daughter. Two people I have very close relationships with, and it shows in their eyes. I can't help but wonder about the relationship you have with your subjects, very stunning results.

the best to you,

Adam

Hi - great photos!!! i love all of them. i see you shoot the majority with 100mm macro. how do you make the eyes stand out like that? i have a 100mm macro myself and have not been able to master it at all.

great images... love children photos in b/w

I dont have words for your work. It is astounding. I am learning and hope to one day be able to take these kinds of photos.

hay!!beautiful photo....i made a drawing of one of them...i would really like you to see it...would it be possible to email it to you??

thx for sharing with us.

Hi Nina, I have first seen your photos about 5 years ago here on photo.net and since then I have been checking your website regularly. Your work has been trully inspiring for me, it saddens me greatly that you haven't uploaded any new photos to your webside or here for couple of years now. I hope you are in great health, and if so I hope my little words of deep appreciation for your work can bring you back with more of your photography.

I just discover your work and it is amazing. Your use of light and the sharpness of your images is fantastic. your Portfolio is full of varietions, I love it. I will be back! Warm regards from Miami.

You have an amazing portfolio. You work with light and a personal connection to your subject; I can feel this when looking at your images. I am glad to have accidently found you…lucky me! Very inspiring and a great start to my day!

Best regards, Pamela (Seattle Wa)

Nina: wonderful portraits of your daughter. May I ask how you get your subject's eyes to be so well lit up and evenly lighted? Do you use a light bank or some type of diffuser?

This look is exactly what I want to capture with my children, so a little info on your technique would be much appreciated. You have a great eye...thanks.

I like your emphasis on eyes, some of the images are really remarkable!!

I like your portre portfolyo. Welldone...
