Nate Boguszewski


Documenting American life in candid, often revealing fashion, photographer Nate Boguszewski looks to tell complex stories in the space of a single frame. "One thing that delights me in any shot I take is ambiguity, the lies that a framing can craft," Boguszewski says. "A bit of confusion for the viewer—and sometimes for me—goes a long way in storytelling." That ambiguity is prevalent in much of his work. But he also captures subjects whose faces beam with blatant response, whether it's sadness or anger, confusion or great joy. Much of his work has a grimy Americana feel, an aesthetic Boguszewski attributes to the years spent watching his native city of Pittsburgh flounder. Formerly the art director at Deek magazine, in recent years Boguszewski has shot for Swindle, Next American City, and Philadelphia City Paper.
