Nicole was a great host and she even taught me about lighting. I would definitely book again and you should too!!
Nicole was responsive and helpful from start to finish! I had some scheduling issues and she was very gracious. On the day of the shoot, she guided us through backdrop setup and use of the equipment. I would definitely book again.
