"Hello, my name is Nicole. My journey in the world of photography began with earning my A.S. degree in photographic technology, followed by a Bachelor’s in photography. With 14 years of experience capturing moments and mastering editing tools like Photoshop. I've mastered the skills needed for my work. My passion for photography is matched by my dedication to teaching, having spent the last three years guiding students of all levels of high school through the intricacies of the art. I believe in making learning fun and creative, encouraging my students to think outside the box and develop their unique perspectives.

In addition to my work in high school classrooms, I’ve also extended my expertise to adults seeking to improve their photography and editing skills. My background in helping others shines through in my sessions, where I create an engaging and supportive environment. I strive to connect with my students and adapt my teaching methods to suit their individual needs, making me an excellent mentor. Whether in a formal classroom setting or one-on-one sessions, my enthusiasm and innovative approach inspire my students to explore their creativity and achieve their photographic goals.

Seeing my students grow, both academically and personally, is incredibly rewarding. It’s a reminder that with the right guidance and encouragement, they can achieve anything they set their minds to. And in helping them reach their goals, I find fulfillment in knowing that I have played a part in their journey." less...
