Tyler and I had the pleasure of working with Nicole Kirshner in our Valentine’s themed photoshoot! She had actually reached out back in November or December! However, with Tyler’s crazy hiring process schedule for police (why he shaved his head) and all our traveling in December and January, it was impossible to find any time until February. But honestly, I’m glad because I’d never done anything Valentine’s themed.
Nicole instantly made us feel so comfortable. It did help that we had already had numerous lengthy DM convos prior, but she was amazing from the moment we shook hands and introduced ourselves.
Most couples or folks in general have never done a photoshoot, thus it can be very intimidating being in front of the camera! What was and is great about Nicole is that she gives a lot of direction. Even for someone who is used to being in front of the camera, I still have my moments of blanking out! We also had so many laughs and mini conversations throughout the photoshoot as well – she’s so outgoing so she made me feel as though I’d been shooting with an old friend of many years.
If you check out her gallery, you’ll see that she has a very clear vision of the types of shot she wants. Her work is incredibly lively and sensual. Her shots capture so much emotion and are well worth over a thousand words.
