For as long as Nicole can remember, she's had a camera in her hands. From disposables to SLRs to camera phones, capturing the moment has always come naturally to her. As a design student at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, she began weaving her photography into her projects — and it wasn't long before friends, family, and acquaintances started commissioning her work.

Photography never left her side as her design career grew. She saw it as an essential tool in visual storytelling, and over time that passion evolved into something bigger: commercial shoots, on-set directing, campaign photography, product launches, and social content creation.

Today, Nicole is honored to have collaborated with top international brands, professional athletes, and Chicago-area startups alike. She thrives on partnering with mission-driven organizations and entrepreneurs to bring bold visions to life.
