URBAN STORYTELLER & PORTRAIT ARTIST

Shot By Nixon “Nixon Alexander” is the work of a published portrait and editorial photographer whose experience spans high-end commercial, fashion, and magazine work across both print and digital platforms.
Known for capturing people with intention and presence, Nixon brings that same eye into street-level documentary — focusing on candid moments, real environments, and unfiltered culture.
On The Block is a natural extension of that work: applying an editorial lens to life as it unfolds.
Nixon on the Block was created as a street-level visual platform dedicated to documenting real culture as it happens. What started as a camera on the streets of New York evolved into a living archive of fashion, jewelry, nightlife, creatives, and unfiltered moments from the block—especially within NYC’s Diamond District and surrounding neighborhoods.
Built on authenticity and access, Nixon on the Block exists at the intersection of street photography and editorial storytelling. The brand focuses on capturing people, details, and environments that define the culture before it’s polished, commercialized, or diluted.
Over time, Nixon on the Block has grown into more than photography—it’s a recognizable visual identity and cultural perspective. The platform now works with brands, artists, and businesses looking for imagery that feels raw, intentional, and grounded in real life, while still maintaining a premium, gallery-worthy aesthetic.
At its core, Nixon on the Block is about presence—being there, seeing it clearly, and telling the story honestly.
