Raised in Southern California, Nicole’s passion for taking pictures began at age 15. With her family’s encouragement, Nicole got her first photography job taking children’s portraits and working with a local wedding and studio photographer. She then enrolled in college to pursue an education that would allow her to combine her talent and passion with a future career. Nicole studied photojournalism in Fullerton, California and was active on the campus newspaper and magazine as a photographer and photo editor.
