• The COVID-19 pandemic has caused extraordinary disruptions to education systems globally, forcing a rapid switch from conventional to online education. Although some qualitative studies have been carried out exploring the online education experiences of nursing students and faculty members during the COVID-19 pandemic, to our knowledge, no study has used the Photovoice approach. To explore the experiences of nursing students and faculty members as related to online education during the COVID-19 pandemic. A descriptive qualitative design using Photovoice was adopted. The study took place across five countries and one city in Southeast Asia (Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam, and Hong Kong). Fifty-two nursing students and twenty-eight nursing faculty members who participated in online education during the COVID-19 pandemic. Each participant submitted one photo substantiated with written reflections. Data were analysed using thematic analysis. Ethical approval was obtained from institution-specific ethics boards. Three themes and eleven sub-themes emerged from the data. The three main themes were: 1) Psychological roadblocks to online education; 2) Developing resilience despite adversities; and 3) Online education: What worked and what did not. Through Photovoice, the reflections revealed that nursing students and faculty members were generally overwhelmed with the online education experience. At the same time, participants were satisfied with the flexibility and convenience, opportunities for professional and personal development and safety afforded by online education. However, concerns over academic integrity, practical skills and clinical competencies, engagement and participation, the duality of technology and social isolation out-shadowed the advantages. It is worthwhile to explore the concerns raised to enhance online education across the nursing curriculum. •Existing literature on Photovoice to explore participants' experiences and perceptions during COVID-19 is limited.•Flexibility, convenience, safety, and opportunities for development were most appreciated by students and faculties.•Academic integrity, skills, competency, engagement, participation, technology duality and social isolation were important.•Institutions should consider a hybrid/blended learning approach to sustain learning progress and goals.•More studies triangulating the experiences of different stakeholders in the educational system is warranted.
