Nathan Larson is an American photographer and artist. Nathan Edwin Larson was born in Tooele, Utah on October 5th, 1973. He currently resides in the Upper Valley of Vermont & New Hampshire and is active in the new Cornish Colony Arts Council.

In 2010, Nathan created the "250 People Project" which gathered together a group of photographers to photograph over 250 portraits of residents of Windsor, Vermont during the celebration of their 250th Anniversary. The project was later transformed into a book, "250 Years/250 People: Windsor, Vermont" which was designed by Chris Cammock of Sublime Eye.

The 250 people project was rolled into a new and much larger initiative to use the same concept of gathering portrait of a single town in a short period of time for archival and ethnographic study. The new project is entitled "Why We Stay" and is currently in production. Nathan is a contributing photographer and editor in the "Why We Stay" project, which is underwritten by the Cornish Colony Arts Council. The project is traveling around Vermont gathering ethnographic data as well as portraits and audio stories in an attempt to capture the samples of at least 100 people per town and also investigate motivations for living in rural communities.

In 2013 Nathan self-published his first monolith, "Cloud Hunter" which featured landscapes of Vermont and New Hampshire.

Nathan has been featured in both volumes of the "Capture Vermont" series published by the Burlington Free Press and Piedmont Publishing. His work is also featured in the Capture My Vermont Calendar.
