crafting timeless imagery since 2011

Behind the Lens

The visionary

I’m Mario — a fine art wedding and portrait photographer born and raised in The Bahamas, where the light is bold, the water is impossibly blue, and love stories unfold with effortless beauty. For over 20 years, I’ve had the honor of documenting celebrations and meaningful moments across the islands for couples and families from around the world.

What began as a passion for the technical aspects of lighting has evolved into a signature style defined by bold color editorial elegance, natural emotion, and authentic island warmth. More than a photographer, I’m your guide to the most beautiful locations, the best light, and the experience of feeling completely at ease in front of the camera.

The Photographer

let's get started →

What separates my work is the unique blend of technical precision and artistic vision I bring to every shoot. My focus on composition, lighting, and details ensure exceptional quality in every shot. My experience allows me to adapt quickly to changing environments, whether it's shifting light on a windy day, glare on a sunny beach, or dimly lit reception venues. By pairing artistic vision with attention to detail, I deliver beautiful imagery that reflects my client’s vision.

My shooting style is lightly directed rather than heavily posed, allowing your natural personality and connections to shine through. With a background in hospitality spanning 20 years, providing outstanding service comes naturally to me. 

From the moment you inquire to the final delivery of your gallery, you can expect clear communication, expert guidance, and a warm, easygoing experience that feels effortless.

I believe in creating a relaxed, enjoyable experience, where you
are free from worries.

my approach

When not photographing weddings and portraits, I love to travel. I also love to be outdoors enjoying the beautiful scenery of The Bahamas, spending time with family, watching Auto Racing, or diving into the technical aspects of photography to continually refine my craft. I have a deep passion for photography and I also do corporate and commercial photography. I photograph yachts, luxury homes and Corporate Events. I find this challenging and a great source of inspiration and growth. If you're curious to see my Commercial work check it out at Mario Nixon Media.
