Nadia Bseiso is a Jordanian documentary photographer based in Amman, known for her commitment to long-term projects that delve into geopolitics, history, anthropology, and environmental issues. After earning a degree in photography from Florence, Italy, in 2011, she returned to Italy in 2015 for an artist residency at Fondazione Fotografia in Modena, where she began exploring the olive oil industry in the Middle East through the "OilMill" project with artist Daniele Casciari.

Nadia's work has been recognized internationally. She was selected as one of Time LightBox’s female photographers to watch in 2017 and participated in the NOOR-Nikon Masterclass in Documentary Photography in 2014. She has exhibited her work in Jordan and Italy and collaborated with various local and international NGOs since 2011. Her photography has appeared in renowned publications such as The New York Times, The Telegraph, Reuters, Zeit Magazine, The Intercept, The Globe and Mail, and U.S. News & World Report.

Driven by a passion for visual storytelling and human rights, Nadia continues to use her lens to shed light on critical issues affecting the Middle East.
