Nick Rozzo, a resident of Port Monmouth, began his photographic pursuits as a pre-teen on the streets of Newark. Self-taught, he pursues his photographic interests through his life experiences and travels throughout the United States with his wife, Mike.

 

Nick is a generalist—his interests are varied, without specialization in any one field of endeavor or genre. His direct, yet not traditional style, does not follow the standard rules of photography but opts to challenge the norm in order to create dynamic results. Simplicity of subject matter, color, and light are basic elements used to produce vivid images that evoke viewer interest and involvement. Nick continues to use traditional slide and print film to promote maximum impact images.
