hey, I’m nico
and I’m an actor.
a headshot session from one actor to another
I’ve been acting professionally since earning my BFA from Northern Illinois University in 2016. As a Chicago-based actor, I understand the hustle of balancing work and late-night auditions. Through years of auditioning, I’ve learned how to showcase my artistic identity in headshots, helping me secure representation with Shirley Hamilton Talent.
I’ve also gained valuable insight as a casting intern at Remy Bumppo Theatre Company, reviewing countless headshots and learning what makes one stand out. These combined experiences shape my work as a photographer, helping ensure your unique artistic self shines through.

our process
the chat
This is a collaboration between the both of us where we will be creating something together. So before your session, I like to jump on a call and get to know more about you. We talk through goals, how you want to market yourself specifically, and the types of characters that you’re drawn to.
the shoot
Let’s have some fun! I work in a very organic style, always encouraging you to follow your impulses. We’ll have a game plan of types/characters that we want to focus on, and I’ll set our focus on specific elements that we want to highlight throughout the session.
the goods
After the shoot, you’ll have access to a preview gallery where you can make your final selections. The gallery never expires, so you can always come back for additional images down the road to add to your website, actors’ access, or social profiles.
