Nina Aaldering was once, among other writing pursuits, a Love & Sex columnist. Then she discovered photography while studying in Madrid and never looked back. What started as an experiment became a calling, shaping a directing style led by emotion, instinct, and visual storytelling.

With a background as a creative in advertising, Nina crafts films that feel composed and alive, deeply influenced by her connection to fashion, photography, and dance. She often plays with friction between sound and image, polish and rawness, allowing for poetic imagery to emerge in the space between. Her work is defined by character, atmosphere, and a sharp eye for human detail.

Nina’s work has been recognized by Berlin Commercial, Berlin Fashion Film Festival, and LA Fashion Film Festival, among others. Known for her instinctive eye for distinctive faces and characters, Nina has collaborated with leading fashion and luxury brands including IWC, L’Oréal, Moët & Chandon, Numéro, and G-Star.
