Pic-Time Stories: Nicole Mason
Our second Pic-Time Story features Nicole Mason - a Wedding, Brand, and Lifestyle Photographer based in Oregon, USA. We had the pleasure of sitting down with Nicole last August, hearing about her work and her life perspective. Nicole has a distinguished style: paying close attention to detail, sticking to a cohesive color palette, and coming from a minimalist approach.
Meeting Nicole
Words by Nirit Gur-Karby, Co-Founder of Pic-Time
I started Pic-Time after learning art and photography, so my interest in photography has been there from the beginning and is rooted the DNA of Pic-Time.
It’s always interesting to meet the people behind the lens; to hear their thoughts, their values and motivations. I feel that it adds another layer to their images. Nicole’s work got my attention from the beginning, and meeting her face to face last Summer made me value her work even more.
Being successful on social media can be confusing. You can find yourself trying to “please the feed”, with the images that get more attention, losing your initial interest and passion. I love the way Nicole, at such a young age, has been able to stay centered. She has a powerful yet quiet quality to her work, and is able to keep doing the things that makes her feel alive, the things that come from within rather than the outside.
Thank you, Nicole, for letting me step into your world. A world that has space, simplicity, tenderness ... and yet so rooted and powerful.
