#UndeniablyAdventurous

“I like to live spontaneously”

 

It was the morning after an all-night photoshoot for a major car company.  Natalie was at JP Morgan working and all she could think about were those photos she had just finished taking.  She didn’t have her camera, there were edits to be done and she wanted to do them right then. She couldn’t wait.  The overwhelming urge to work on her passion project couldn’t wait any longer. She got up, methodically walked over to her supervisor and said “I quit."

 

 

  
Being a woman navigating the NYC finance world was one thing, now she dove head first and was about to experience a whole new world of male executives, clients and other photographers.  Natalie, didn’t know if she would succeed, but she knew dedicating her life to photography was what she needed to do.

 

Misshattan is now synonymous with aerial NYC photography.  Her work has been featured all over the city and the world for clients ranging from Jaguar to entire countries.  The adventurous woman who left JP Morgan and never looked back is one of the best known aerial photographers in the world.

 

During a recent short stop in NYC, she took the time to be on the other side of the lens for a photoshoot and interview with Cut + Clarity.  As one of the first people to receive our Mini Name Necklace, we love that Misshattan is forever a #CCboss.
