BIO

For the past 20 years award-winning photographer Faith Ninivaggi has documented major news events, pro sports, feature stories and political figures as a photojournalist for the Boston Herald. She is a contributing freelance photographer for Reuters. Her work photographing during the pandemic in collaboration with the creative team at WCVB, earned her a New England Emmy Award. Over the past two decades, Faith has run her own freelance business photographing portrait, editorial and commercial commissions for local and national corporations. She holds a BFA in Photography from The Art Institute of Boston and recently received her MFA in Photography + Integrated media from Lesley University.

Faith's point of view as an artist and documentarian is informed by the duality of her own life as a mother and photojournalist. She has an acute commitment to photograph her subjects with sensitivity and grace, and deeply feels the inherent responsibility to both the visual, and emotional truth. Her genuine interest in our cultural and social landscape leads her to focus her intimate portraits on how we wear the life events that the world imposes on all of us. As a mother, she understands empathy and trust.  As a strong storyteller whose refined humanist vision resulted from years in the field as a photojournalist, her work embodies and memorializes the human experience.
