ABOUT ME
Hey I’m Nicky, your nerdy sparkle weirdo gothy Lake Tahoe Photographer!
My fun first fact: I hate small talk. I’d much rather chat about your craziest dream, your saddest memory, and every single thing about your pets of course. So let’s get through this About Me section quickly together so we can get on with being buds.
I’ve lived in North LAke Tahoe area for 12 years with my husband, Keegan. We have one dog named Lindy, an Irish Wolfhound/Greyhound mix. We live in Carnelian Bay (between Tahoe City and Kings Beach) with like, two other people and lots of bears. Yes, the bear thing is real here in Tahoe.
I’ve been photographing weddings and families professionally with short breaks since 2005. I don’t like counting the years anymore because it makes me feel old and that’s not fair because I don’t even have three grey hairs…because I’m always dyeing them crazy colors…
I’m deeply, to a fault, empathetic and love to listen to my friends and family when they are at their lowest so I can lift them up. I want to be your biggest fan, cheerleader and helper always.
I do not tolerate racism, bigotry, sexism, homophobia, body-shaming, ableism etc and I expect to be corrected if you ever hear any of that from me. Please take a look at my Giving Back page for more info on the amazing non-profits I support.
I don’t like cake, please don’t make me try it. Yes this deserves it’s own line.
My special skills include starting my old snowblower with one pull, beating my husband at Jeopardy every night, knowing every word in every episode of The Office, remembering every name at a 30 person family shoot, balancing pine cones on my head, and skanking/moshing unexpectedly at weddings
