WHO AM I?
A devotee of beauty since an early age, Drexina Nelson began her career in Atlanta as a makeup artist for some of the city’s most prominent photographers. Upon completing both her B.A. and M.B.A. degrees at Clark Atlanta University, she opted to pursue a career in photography where she could combine her love for beauty and the arts, her keen eye for composition and style, and her knowledge of business. Her transition from makeup to photography proved to be a wise choice, thus opening the doors to her own studio, “The Society Studios.”
Drexina has had the privilege of capturing some of the most beautiful and talented people in the world of entertainment. She has shot some of the most amazing fashion & beauty campaigns, to magazine covers for national publications, mainstream television and film actors, award-winning recording artists and reality TV stars, as well as for some of the most prominent music labels in the industry.
The inspiration for her work ranges from fashion and beauty to the appeal of human interaction. Whether it is the way a person moves, dresses, or laughs, Drexina’s inspiration for each shoot is to capture the essence and individuality of the client with her lens. It is her ability to successfully achieve such a goal that has earned her a reputation as a premiere beauty, fashion, and commercial photographer.
“As a photographer, I truly believe if you look deep inside someone, you can bring out things the client didn’t know existed. And you can help them, and the world, see the beauty that breathes so softly in each of us.” | Drexina Nelson
“Creativity is one of the lifelines to the enlightenment, healing, and well being of this world & beyond.”
