Hey there, thanks for visiting. I’m Nic, a portrait photographer from the Midwest drawn to transformation, evolution and the often messy beauty of becoming. I’m interested in the body as archive and the idea that we carry our stories in our skin, and I try to honor the way people hold pain, joy, and all the in-betweens.
My journey has taken me through many landscapes, seasons, and cities, constantly shifting but always searching. That restlessness shows shown up in my images. At my core I hold a deep love for the natural world. I’m pulled toward people like I’m pulled toward the mountains—curious, open, and in awe of what they hold.
What draws me in is genuine presence. The joy of holding space for those letting themselves be witnessed. Photography is how I listen. It’s how I say: I see you. I’m here too.
My photos are an exploration of both isolation and connection. I’m fascinated by how we relate to ourselves, one another and to the world around us, seeking to capture those moments that reveal our truth and shared humanity.
When I’m not behind the camera, I’m dancing, writing, slacklining, practicing yoga, singing, backpacking, or getting lost in unfamiliar cities. Movement and self-expression are how I stay engaged with the world, and with myself.
