"The hardest part isn't finding what we need to be, it's being content with who we are." - The Ataris

Nicole. 22.

Life is confusing. But I guess it wouldn't be very interesting if it weren't. I'm obsessed with my camera and The Ataris. I can find inspiration in anything. I'm moody. I go through weird phases. I don't want to grow up. Ever. I'm terrible with words, so I use pictures instead. I don't know where I'm going but I'm sure I'll get there eventually. One. Day. At. A. Time.

I'm selling prints! Contact for more info: like_shipwrecks@yahoo.com

for the love of trousers says:

"nicole is truly one of the most gifted photographers i have ever had the great fortune to come across. her ability to portray powerful emotions with every image is absolutely stunning. while she claims to not have a way with words, she is definitely better versed than most in the language of art.

plus, she's absolutely gorgeous, and all-around awesome. rock on, chica!"

"Nicole is such a cool person and photographer it is impossible not to like her and her work. She has such great variety in her work, it is unreal. Her images are usually very powerful.... they leave you breathless. I think she has an amazing ability to translate her feelings into images, no matter if these feelings are sunshiny-happy or dark as night. A natural talent. I so appreciate her honesty and everything she's shared with us here... I'm so glad to have found her on Flickr!"

"well, i want to marry nicole. but since that can't happen, i'll write her a testimonial and maybe that will be close enough. okay, not nearly. not nearly close enough to explaining how perfect, wonderful, talented, life-changing and exuberant this girl is. i mean, wow. just wow. when you view this stream, your life will be changed. so be warned. and afterward, you will be sitting at your computer, writing her a testimonial and hating me, because you know that eventually, i WILL seduce her into marrying me. oh yes. and you, you will be jealous."

"Emotion, emotion, EMOTION. Nicole's photos scream with her soul, always allowing the viewer reach inside and see what she is feeling. Absolutely dope!"

"Nicole is probably the most humble artist I know. She's an incredibly gifted photographer with a keen eye for beauty in all things, but doesn't credit herself nearly enough. She might not be technical, but I can't wait to see what she shows us when (realizes) she is.

And besides photography, Nicole is just an amazing person and I'm lucky she's my friend."

Stephen Poff says:

"For someone who claims to not know much about the technical aspects of photography, Nicole seems to "get lucky" a lot. She's painfully honest in her daily posts but somehow always leaves you with a smile.

She's very generous with her comments and always has something nice or constructive to say. I look forward to seeing her grow as a photographer and use it to save the world someday ;-).

It's also cool that her name comes from an Atari's song. You gotta love that!"
