PORTRAITS AS WORKS OF ART
We had never posed for a professional photographer before and
I was impressed with the energy and focus you gave to each of us.
Frank
Thanks for showing what our souls look like. I'm glad we connected and spent this wonderful time creating resonance among our souls.
Isra
With your embrace of words and welcoming heart,
I let go of some of my walls.
I was able to find myself. What you captured on film was....me.
The photos are me.

Years of large format fine art photography inform Nicholas’s viewpoint on portraiture in the digital age. He’s always seeking to reveal one’s inner as well as outer beauty.
Eyes, the windows to the soul, radiate with expression in his head and shoulder portraits. He connects with each person, regardless of age, to find those elusive moments when facades fade away and spirit is revealed.

Heirloom Family & Friends Portraits
Nicholas approaches portraiture as co-created works of art. Avoiding the distractions of color, style, and environment, his rich monochromatic portraits focus on faces and features that reflect individual spirits and energy at a particular moment in time to make the images timeless. His portraits evoke the masters of light and shadow from Edward Weston and Ruth Bernhard to Richard Avedon and Joyce Tenneson.
