Today we’d like to introduce you to Nadeen
Hi Nadeen, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?
Hey, I’m Nadeen, and I’m the proud founder of F4stcustoms, a project I started with my co-founder, Neil. F4stcustoms is an automotive photography and videography business that began back in August 2023 as a fun side hustle. At first, our goal was simple: to capture and share the coolest cars we saw at car meets with our friends and family. But over time, we realized this could be so much more if we put in the work.
Even though we’re both full-time students, we’ve always made time for car meets and photography because our passion for showcasing amazing cars keeps us motivated to keep improving. We didn’t just want to create another photography page—we wanted to build something that stood out.
What sets F4stcustoms apart isn’t just the photos and videos we make—it’s the reason we do it. Sure, it’s awesome to see the likes and follows roll in (who doesn’t love that?), but what really drives us is sharing our love for cars with the community. Whether it’s people in our hometown, across the country, or around the world, we want to connect with others who feel the same excitement we do when we see a beautifully designed car.
Since last summer, things have been growing faster than we could’ve imagined. Honestly, it’s been kind of crazy. Our page has grown in ways we never expected, and that success just pushes us to keep improving. We’re always learning, experimenting, and working to create content people love. The messages we get from people who appreciate our work. They mean the world to us. When someone calls us “talented” or says our work inspires them—it’s honestly surreal. It’s the kind of thing that makes you stop and think, “Wow, this is really happening.”
What started as a fun side project for our friends and family has turned into something we’re incredibly proud of. We’ve grown to over 1400 followers so far. Sure, it’s just a number, but behind every follower is a real person who took the time to check out our work and hit that follow button. That’s something we’ll always appreciate.
Looking ahead, we’re so excited for what’s next. We’re committed to leveling up our content, connecting with even more people, and continuing to share our love for cars with the world. What began as a hobby has turned into something so much bigger—and we’re excited to see where this journey takes us in 2025.
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
One of the biggest challenges I face is juggling school. Being a senior in high school feels like riding a never-ending rollercoaster of stress. Between homework, my job, and working on F4stcustoms, it’s tough to keep everything balanced. But no matter how crazy things get, I always stay motivated to create and share content for the fans who appreciate it as much as I do.
Another challenge is the big exams coming up in school. As finals approach, the pressure starts to build, and it’s tough to focus on anything else. But even with the stress of studying, my team and I at F4stcustoms are committed to keeping the content coming, no matter what.
Thankfully, our followers make it all worth it. They’re not only incredibly supportive and positive, but they’re also patient and excited to see what we have in store next from F4stcustoms.
As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
F4stcustoms is a small but passionate automotive photography and videography business here in Columbus, Ohio. We focus on capturing high-quality photos and videos of both privately and publicly owned vehicles, which we share on our Instagram (@F4stcustoms). What really sets us apart from others is the equipment we use and the way we edit our photos. Me personally (Nadeen), I take all the photos and videos using my iPhone 14 Pro and then edit each one in Adobe Lightroom. While many people in the community use presets, I prefer to adjust every photo individually, taking the time to fine-tune each slider to get the perfect look.
We’re really proud of the community and following we’ve built so far. The support we’ve gotten has pushed us to keep improving our skills with every car meet and private shoot. In just 1.5 years, we’ve learned so much, and we’re excited to keep growing and pushing our limits in 2025 and beyond.
What are your plans for the future?
We’ve been doing a lot of thinking about where we want to take F4stcustoms in the future. While we don’t want to spoil too much, we’re focused on growing our audience and building stronger connections so we can keep bringing high-quality content to the amazing people who support us.
We’re really excited to step things up with bigger and better photoshoots, more videos, and even some behind-the-scenes action. We want to give our followers a closer look at the creative process and share more of what we’re passionate about. There’s a lot more coming, and we can’t wait to share it all with you!
