I A M N I C K R A S M U S S E N .
I recently realized that though I occasionally post images either here or on Instagram, I never have fully introduced myself, which can make or break whether or not a potential client sticks around to view my work or inquire. I’ve been learning more and more that connection is everything in this world, and I want to do my best to make sure each and every client of mine or couple who books with me knows the reason why I create and aspire to continue creating for the rest of my life. So, below is my attempt at letting you in on my life, both the personal and creative side.
I began taking photos at a young age. I have always been inspired by the things around me - nature, architecture, even billboards that grabbed my attention as I drove by, and I wanted to take photographs of them so I could revive part of what it felt or looked like in that moment later on. I have been taking photos ever since, and have progressively formed my style into something that speaks volumes to me. A majority of my work touches on the idea of connection and being alone in various spaces. What I find fascinating is that these themes are seen not only in my personal works of art, but also show up in my wedding and portrait images as well. The connection between two people in love is what drew me into becoming a wedding photographer, and I love having the ability and skills to capture such important moments as this. Both my wedding images and personal, fine-art images share an intimate quality, and the way I edit these images -- one might describe as “moody” -- comes as a result and in relation to this intimacy. After studying art for four years, traveling and exploring what a “good” photograph means, I think I have finally found my niche, and I don’t ever want to stop creating. (...So please hire me!!)
As an artist, my aspiration is to build memories that will astonish both viewers and clients, capturing moments while simultaneously creating stories. Both memories and stories play into the reason I create and the images that come as a result of this creativity. Through high quality fine art photography, I portray the raw, intimate moments of life as I discover different parts of this expansive world. Stories and moments can sometimes become lost, even forgotten. This being said, I never want to let a moment pass by. I create lasting images for myself and my clients and love spending my life creating meaningful art.
