About Nicole
I love sharing my joy of photography and photo editing with others. I'm an experienced instructor with the ability to explain photography concepts in easy-to-understand language. I can help you get out of auto, learn the important set of features on your camera that will make the most impact on your images, and also help you to learn photo editing in Lightroom and/or Photoshop.
I like to create images that bring joy to people whether it's capturing beautiful abstract art photos, family candids that preserve important memories, or lovely images of nature. I also find it very gratifying to help others improve their photography skills.
I used to work in the software industry and did a lot of work training people to use our company's products. I love to help people learn new technologies, whether that's software or camera equipment, so when I retired and became a professional photographer, teaching was a natural fit for me.
I have taught photography at the Lexington Arts & Crafts Society where I am a member of the Photography Guild, the Weston Art & Innovation Center, and several other local arts organizations.

I am extremely flexible and tailor my instruction to students' needs. I start by understanding what you are trying to accomplish (eg, getting out of auto, achieving better focus, organizing or backing up photo collections, enhancing photos, creating photo books, etc.) and then suggest a plan to achieve those goals.
I've worked with some teens, but mainly adult learners. I specialize in working with beginners. I have a knack for breaking learning into manageable size chunks and explaining concepts in plain English.
You of course need to find an instructor who is skilled in the areas you wish to learn, but equally as important, you need to find an instructor whose teaching style matches your learning style. I recommend trying out different instructors to find someone who's a good fit.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
I always ask new students what they're trying to accomplish with learning photography or photo editing. For example, do you want to learn to use your camera in manual mode? Do you want to document your family events? Do you want to create memories of your travel adventures? Do you want to become a sports photographer or a photo journalist? Or do you maybe want to create art? I will prioritize different skills depending on how you answer that question.
I also like to understand students' prior experience with their camera or with photo editing so we can focus on new material and not on topics you're already comfortable with.

I enjoyed my session with Nicole. We met in my backyard which was great. She was knowledgeable, patient and friendly. As I am a beginner she met her challenge 100%. I am looking forward to our next meeting.
I’ve taken several classes with Nicole in both basic photography and photo editing. I like the way she can break down the complexities of learning a camera into simple, understandable segments. In photo editing, she teaches one step at a time with patience and clarity. I can do many things now that eluded me prior to taking her classes. Highly recommend!
The feed back I have gotten from Nicole has greatly improved my editing skills. I look back at earlier edits and think "I can't believe that I thought that was well edited..." Shooting with her as left me in awe of what she sees that I miss.
