Nicole Carroll
Collaborator + 2nd Shooter
New Orleans, Louisiana
Nicole’s photographic journey began in 2004, when she took a beginning black and white film class in college. The hands-on experience of creating a photograph, from the initial capture in camera to watching the image appear on the paper in the darkroom, was so satisfying that she continued taking classes, eventually earning a Bachelor of Fine Art degree in Photography in 2009.
Since then, she has explored a variety of photographic genres, including portraiture, travel, product, and weddings. Whether she finds herself in abandoned theme park, or at a happy couple’s big day, she seeks the beauty in her surroundings. Equally inspired by the ordinary and the extraordinary, the weird and the wonderful, the quiet and the grand, she aims to preserve moments for others, as well as herself.
