NAT
Creator of DRKSIDE Media & Principle Videographer
Nat has been an automotive photographer, videographer and artist for more than a decade. Originally under the name Nvrlift Photography, Nat has garnered a wealth of experience in the automotive media world. From drifting, V8 Supercars, to car club events and even four wheel drive content, Nat really has captured it all. The only thing she hasn't done, is figure out how to keep her eyes open anytime somebody takes a photo of her (we'll work on that)!
"Heyo, I'm Nat, creator of DRKSIDE Media! I've been living and breathing anything automotive since I was able to walk. Like all good car fanatic stories, mine also started with me holding the torch for my dad every single weekend. Eventually, when I got real adult money (and much to my parents regret), it was my turn to have the project cars. Currently in the collection is my 2015 Subaru BRZ and my daily driver, as well as a 1988 Nissan Silvia S13 which I'm currently nut-and-bolt restoring by myself. And because I absolutely loooove life, I've also got a 1996 BMW E36 328is - you'd be correct in assuming there's no oil it.
When I'm not behind the lens, you'll typically find me in one of 3 places - swinging spanners in the shed, at my desk drawing a car, or out bush camping and/or four wheel driving.
As you can probably tell by now, everything involves cars. At the age of 15, I took up photography, and not long after that, I discovered that I could combine my passion for cars with my passion for photography. For 9 or so years I went under the name Nvrlift Photography, and really got to capture some amazing photos during that time. But, it was time for a change, and I wanted to sharpen up my skills as a videographer.
And thus, Nvrlift Photography was retired, and DRKSIDE Media was born."
ZAC
Co-creator of DRKSIDE Media & Principle Photographer
Joining the DRKSIDE team alongside Nat, is Zac. With a keen eye for detail, and a roaring passion for cars, Zac has stepped back behind the lens with the ambition to capture some absolutely breathtaking imagery. With over 10 years of photography experience under his belt, there is absolutely no doubt that he will do just that, and more.
"I'm just a millenial who loves cars, music, and just a little bit of photography.
Like most people my age, Need for Speed Underground and The Fast and The Furious franchise were the biggest influences in learning to love and appreciate cars. But truth be told, it was mainly my dad who got me into cars. We always had different sports cars in the family, and that bug for driving was definitely passed onto me.
I've been doing photography on and off for over 10 years, but I've recently picked it back up again alongside Nat to build DRKSIDE Media. Pouring my passion, focus and drive into this new project, is the goal for the foreseeable future.
Beyond the cars and cameras, I'm really just here to have a good time, meet and build a community for people who leave egos at the door, and just want to have a great time."
