Sed ut perspiciatis unde.

We caught up with the brilliant and insightful NymityMedia a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.

Nymity, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. We’d love to go back in time and hear the story of how you came up with the name of your brand?

I have created an image for this passion project that I call NYMITY. The name comes from anonymity- anonymous. The reason I capture started when I got to experience feeling so authentically seen, but my art remains faceless and largely nameless online because it’s not about me, I don’t need my name known, even my friends in the industry know me by a nickname. NYMITYmedia is about Capturing the Effects of Music. Whether it be the musicians pouring their heart out on stage, or someone in the crowd having that moment of authentic self-expression, that is what I aim to capture- the impact. I was so fortunate to have that for myself and even more fortunate now to capture that for others.

Nymity, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?

I am a concert and nightlife photographer with my focus set on electronic bass music, but it hasn’t always been that way. Over the last 12 years, my photography journey has been diverse, ranging from weddings to fine art portraits. However, it was a chance encounter while listening to music on shuffle when I heard the Ascend album back in 2019 that truly shifted my perspective. From the hauntingly beautiful “I Care” intro I was instantly hooked. Something about the flow of the album I hadn’t experienced from any other music before. It was a linear story and with every song that played I had a vivid recollection of events in my life. It sparked something in me that I was drawn to experiencing more of, and something I wanted to recreate in my art. Ultimately, the music became my lifeline during my most difficult personal struggles. Despite setbacks, including the loss of my marriage and dream career due to the global pandemic, electronic music became my solace and drove my passion for both photography and art.

Attending Trilogy Las Vegas in 2021 was transformative. It was my first time ever attending a live music event. From the moment I walked into Allegiant stadium the energy of the crowd, the palpable sense of unity among 40,000 strangers, all gathered for the same purpose, was profound. As I made my way to the rail for the Ascend set, I felt a sense of belonging I had never experienced before. I will never forget the moment I looked behind me at the entire stadium. It was there, amid the music and the crowd, that I felt truly seen, heard and understood for the first time in my life. As I got to experience the music live on the rail, I saw the media crew in the pits filming everything. They passed me several times and I knew in those moments that they had captured me feeling the most authentic I had ever felt. I was seen. Because of that, I knew I would dedicate myself to chasing the opportunities to capture that moment I had- for others.

Since then, I’ve immersed myself in the music scene, building connections and honing my craft. Now based near Denver, Colorado, I strive to share the same joy and inspiration I found through photography with others. My goal overall is to have my art reach someone, someday, the way it reached me.

Let’s talk about resilience next – do you have a story you can share with us?

Before moving to Colorado, I was working 3 jobs, 7 days a week. I felt like I was running on a mouse wheel for stability and still not able to tread water. None of these jobs had anything to do with the music industry or photography. I knew what I wanted but had no idea how to get there, I didn’t have adequate camera equipment or any business knowledge, much less any free time. What I did have was a basic entry-level DSLR Canon Rebel and a lot of passion.

I focused on a mentality of “do what you can with what you have, where you are right now.”

What I can tell you from experience is that if you want something bad enough, you will always make time to work towards it.

Can you tell us about what’s worked well for you in terms of growing your clientele?

Be so kind and be genuine in that kindness. Support the artists you look up to. This industry is only competition if you want it to be. There will always be good people in the same line of work with an outlook that you align with, find them. Cultivate your foundation on intentional and genuine connections. Kindness, support and passion go a long way.
