By illuminating racial injustice, disability inequity, marginalized youth, the first woman VP, and the largest telescope NASA has ever constructed, Nasreen thrives as a leader in films that shift our culture. Utilizing a plethora of lenses, her ability to motivate audiences is a direct result of approaching story through multiple identities: multi-heritage, Black, Iraqi, Disabled (chronic pain + neurodivergent), raised Muslim, LGBTQIA+, and 1st Generation, born in Oakland California.

As a Director of Photography, Nasreen has lensed Kamala Harris’ successful Vice Presidential campaign, Oprah’s Emmy award series Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Man, Netflix’s Unknown Cosmic Time Machine, and the Black women who revolutionized fashion. She executive produced East of the River that was supported by Tribeca Film Festival, and she directed campaigns for NASA and the Women’s March, in addition to lensing scripted films centering Gay and Disabled lead characters. Nasreen was awarded Cinematographer of the Year by NASA for her coverage of Operation IceBridge.

Nasreen is a Visions mentee of the American Society of Cinematographers, a fellow of the Ford & Mellon Foundation’s Disability Futures, a fellow of The Disruptors, a fellow of Sundance’s Accessible Futures Intensive, an alumni of the RespectAbility Lab, and a fellow of the WIF Creative Circle.
