VNV Photography By Nikkie Lucero

I have spent a lot of time reflecting on things such as what is my "style" of photography. Style comes with time and is a difficult thing to force. I think more important than style, is being aware of the literal nature of the image I see and striving to go beyond that in an aesthetic sense to create a captivating image.

Capturing the joy and beauty in life with my camera has always been something that I've enjoyed,… but knowing I can do that for someone else brings an even greater sense of satisfaction in the lives of those I know and those I hope to meet are stories to be told. My desire is to visually bring that story to life so that it can be retold day after day.

My unique blend of style is developed from a broad range of artistic and photographic experience. I am comfortable and relaxed in both the studio and shooting on location, possessing the uncanny ability to be creative even under pressure. I am a strong advocate of killing your television. I enjoy running, coffee and intense conversations. I currently live in Golden, CO with my husband, Rudy and our children. When I'm not on shooting assignments I can most often be found at home hanging out with our amazing kids or being romanced by my soul mate.

On a more personal note, I am passionate about the things in which I engage myself… just going halfway doesn’t work in my mind, nor in my life. Every single day I am learning how to become a better mother and wife, and I am thankful for my precious children and the amazing man I have who allows me to “practice” this.

I look forward to you allowing me the opportunity to do that in your life!
