Hey, I'm Nikki! I've been picking up cameras since I was a kid, and more recently I've been focused on expanding my skills as a live music photographer. I'm hugely passionate about music (metal and rock in particular) so combining photography with the energy of live gigs felt like a natural next step.
I've had the absolute pleasure of photographing both established tribute acts as well as independent original artists. I have experience shooting across a wide range of venues, from intimate spaces to larger stages, such as O2 Victoria Warehouse (Manchester), The Wedgewood Rooms (Portsmouth), The Fleece (Bristol), The Boileroom (Guildford), and Volks (Brighton).
I'm always up for a challenge and love trying new things, especially in fast-paced, creative environments.
Fun fact: when I'm not in the photo pit, I'm a Pathology Scientist by day, with both a Bachelor's and Master's degree. While science is highly structured, photography gives me the freedom to explore my creative side in ways I can't always do at work - making the two the perfect balance. This also means I'm always ready to share a few fun (and slightly weird) science facts! Outside of work, you'll usually find me scuba diving wherever possible or out on long walks with my much-loved Romanian rescue dog.
