Get to know the photographer

Noticing moments wherever I find myself.

I'm Nico. I'm a 26 year old photographer, and I've been shooting for over 10 years. I picked up my first camera in high school and have always had a natural creative eye. When I work with clients, I work collaboratively to execute both their vision, and my own, reaching for photos that are inimitable, all while prioritizing the comfort of the client.

I live in New England with my husband. Every few years, we find ourselves somewhere new. I don't always know where I'll land next, but I always bring my camera to record the emotional texture of where I am. Some places feel louder than others, but my hope is that some part of what I create will stick with you. Joy, curiosity, ache, or even friction. The goal is to feel, because feeling is human.

I keep finding emotion in places I don't expect.

I hope you do, too.

I grew up in a creative space, and for as long as I can remember I've been creating. My father works in a creative job, and it's shaped the way I see the world; as since I was a child, I've not only been surrounded by creativity and art, but encouraged to create it.

Growing up in a creative space has allowed me to form a creative eye that is always evolving and seeing things others might miss. Also being queer, I think I offer a unique point of view and sense of awareness of the world and politics around me, which impacts both the way I see the world, and the way I use it to create my art.

"Had a great experience modeling for Nico. he made me feel comfortable and relaxed, and maintained professional through the whole experience. He was able to get his vision through while still working with my comfort level. Definitely plan on working with him again."
