From everyday to extraordinary
At 170 Degrees, we create imagery that captures the beauty in overlooked moments — soft light, subtle detail, and the quiet rhythm of everyday life.
Our collection is available as instant digital downloads, and licensed stock photography, designed for creatives, decorators, and storytellers who value simplicity and depth.
Whether you're curating a space, building a brand, or looking for visuals with soul, 170 Degrees offers images that invite a second look.
Seeing differently
I'm Nicola, the photographer behind 170 Degrees — a project born from a desire to slow down and notice what’s usually missed. I create images that explore quiet moments, soft light, and the beauty found at the edge of ordinary life.
The name 170 Degrees refers to the field of view just outside where we usually focus — the space where subtle details live, unnoticed but rich with story. It’s a reminder to look sideways, to reframe, and to find meaning in the in-between.
My work blends minimalism with emotion — simple compositions, honest textures, and natural light. I’m drawn to the overlooked: a shadow on a wall, a fogged window, the stillness before movement.
What I offer
You’ll find a growing collection of photographs available as:
Downloadable digital files — ready for screens, moodboards, or personal use

Whether you're decorating a space or building a visual identity, these images are designed to say more with less — to hold space, not shout for attention.
