About

I've been creating content and photographing brands since 2004 - before "content creator" was a job title. Currently based in Adelaide, I work with brands across South Australia and Australia on photography, written features, and social media content. Local clients include HarbourTown Adelaide and Adelaide Fringe. My international client work spans Hermès, Sotheby's, Google, Adobe, Emirates, Pernod Ricard, Marriott, Starwood, St. Regis, Accor, Cartier, Swarovski, Michael Kors, Burberry, Levi's, BMW, and more. I host The Naina Experience Podcast - freewheeling conversations with regular people about their lives, work, and journeys. Guests have included a Coonawarra winemaker, an Adelaide entrepreneur redefining storytelling, a mortgage broker getting Indians into homes in Sydney, and a software founder who dropped out of IIT Delhi to build a company in London. No agenda, no script. I also run Naina's Adelaide Collective - a WhatsApp community for Adelaide residents who like showing up in person. Casual meetups, real people. I've been online since 2004. The blog, the photography, the podcast, the community - it all lives at naina.co To appear on the podcast, discuss a brand partnership, or book a shoot - email n@naina.co
