Howdy partner! I'm a freelance Creative Art Director and Photographer who uses design, strategy, and technology to tell great brand stories. I have 11+ years of extensive concept and production experience with both film and digital campaigns for major brands such as Vans, Google, Dropbox, Coors, Blizzard Entertainment, Target, Instagram, and the LA2028 Olympics.

My story has never been defined by a singular role, but instead a curiosity that has allowed me to learn new skills and adapt to the creative challenges at hand. It’s also the reason my work doesn’t follow a specific aesthetic, but instead looks to visually work in harmony with the given idea, brand, or communication challenge.

When not doing that you might find me out photographing, mountain biking, making music, or working on my ‘73 BMW classic. I also roast my own coffee, so if you're a caffeine hound, I can help with that too. Find me at nick(at)nickmarx.com, Working Not Working, my LinkedIn, or Strava (if you're feeling sporty).  Boring-ish stuff plus a button below.
