interpreting and spinning moments in life + love into compositions that provoke. intoxicating ideas.

honest moments.

a unique approach to photography that produces images that express mood, behavior, and truth. nicole is a visual explorer of culture in the midwest and beyond.

My love for photography is what shaped my career taking photos for couples getting married, businesses with a message to share, and parent’s welcoming a new baby into their home.  When you mix your career with your passion everything seems right. My photography work is for me - a moment with friends, an aging building that strikes me, or candids of my daughter. The kind of images that end up printed in photo albums for family and friends are what got me started while still in high school. Being able to stop time is a powerful tool and I can’t seem to get enough of it. I find I’m at my most creative behind any sort of analog camera. The time spent waiting for my film to develop and come to life ignites my imagination and keeps me pushing.

I like to stay busy spending time with my friends and family. I have a daughter who means everything to me, and a husband who supports me in all I do. A few other things I love: coffee, waking up early, trampolines, plants (I have many), shooting film, sour candy, taking road trips, chocolate chip cookies, Sweden, rollercoasters, and WDGY.”
