Today we’d like to introduce you to Cameron Nichols.
Hi Cameron, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
I started my journey through photography. I was in college majoring in Media and Communications, but still trying to find myself artistically. My campus had really beautiful flowers so I just decided to take out my phone (which was an iPhone 7 Plus at the time) and took a couple of photos. After that, I developed a habit of taking pictures of literally everything; I would look at an object from a distance and my mind would drum up a myriad of ideas about how I could capture what I was seeing with my phone. Soon, I started taking pictures of my close friends and they saw that my vision was “different” than the average photographer when it came to taking pictures. That became my inspiration to come up with my business name “Nicholvision” – a play on my name and my creativity. I invested in getting a professional camera kit which was my “Canon Rebel t7i” and spent the next couple of months professionally taking pictures with an array of clientele from hair companies, upcoming music artists’ portfolios, and personal portraits. I expanded from photography and in addition became interested in videography, editing, and sound mixing, which helped showcase my first ever self-made short film “Lost: Poems of a Broken Boy” which is available on my YouTube Channel “Just Cam3000”.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
My business was going well until the pandemic hit in 2020. It became difficult to book clients, which was understandable due to the unprecedented times. The positive side of that was finding my love for content creation. Learning how to edit and sound mix all by myself was definitely a great adventure.
Appreciate you sharing that. What else should we know about what you do?
As of right now I still work independently. My proudest moment I would say is creating my movie. I really put all my skills to the test to see how far my creative mind could go and it was a huge achievement of mine.
We all have a different way of looking at and defining success. How do you define success?
Success to me has no limitation. Of course, everyone wants to make money off of their art or whatever they do, but no matter how far it goes, there’s still room to improve.
