Photography Awesomeness

Okay, I know awesomeness isn't really a word, but that's really what Nichole Van is, a bundle of awesomeness. Many people have asked me about my photography, where I've studied, what workshops I've taken etc. Like many I have not had formal photography training, just practiced and practiced, but I also have been super lucky to take participate in some great workshops. This past spring I took the NicholeV professional workshop and I have to tell you, it was the best thing I ever did as far as improving and developing my skill set. In three days I learned so much, and I still find myself reading and re-reading the workshop manual to glean more or figure out how to shoot a particular subject or scene better. I also use some of her photoshop actions and love them. Lots of range in there, from subtle to dramatic. Definitely go check out her shop: Flourish Emporium.
