Cody Brothers is a self taught native New Mexican photographer, who developed and honed his craft working in professional photographic labs for the past 30 years. Together with his wife, Nikkol, he has owned and operated Visions Photo Lab, here in Santa Fe, NM., since 2005.

 

Since returning to New Mexico his professional photographic career has flourished. He has completed commissions for the state of Nevada, documenting their water reclamation resources, and the art deco architecture of the dams, pumping stations and water resources along the Colorado River. In 2016, he was awarded the NEA’s “Imagine Your Parks” Grant, with the sponsorship of The Springs Preserve of Las Vegas, NV., commemorating the Centennial of the founding of the National Parks Service. Upon receiving the grant the NPCA (National Park Conservation Association) sponsored a show of his National Parks imagery at the Russell Rotunda Senate Office Building in Washington D.C. Most recently, in January 2020 he served as Artist in Residence in Death Valley NP, and in October 2020 at Shenandoah NP.

Cody is represented by galleries in Denver, New York City, and Santa Fe. His work is part of the permanent collections of New Mexico Art in Public Places, New Mexico History Museum, Springs Preserve in Las Vegas, NV., and the University of New Mexico.
