Nathan Miles is a street photographer working primarily with 35mm film. His work focuses on the quiet observation of everyday life, paying attention to the small moments that often pass unnoticed. Movement, chaos and order exist side by side in the street, revealing fragments of joy, solitude and connection within the ordinary rhythms of the city.

Working with film encourages a slower and more deliberate approach. Each photograph becomes a small record of a moment that has already passed. A glance, a gesture or a brief interaction can disappear almost instantly, but through the camera these fleeting fragments of time are preserved.

Nathan draws influence from photographers such as Saul Leiter, Fred Herzog, Stephen Shore and Jeff Mermelstein, among others. Their work demonstrated that the extraordinary can be found within the ordinary, simply by paying attention to the world as it unfolds.

For Nathan, photography is ultimately about preserving time. Each image becomes a fragment of everyday life that would otherwise disappear as quickly as it arrived. In this way the work becomes an ongoing visual observation of life as it moves forward, while the moments themselves quietly pass.
