PHOTOGRAPHY
changing image
Photography is not just a picture or moment that is captured,
but every picture has a story and it is that story that depicts our society today. Capturing a moment in someone's life differently creates a way to be far from
and not subjected to the norm. As an artistic photographer, the aspiration
is to bring about a different view point of what the image of beauty
is through someone else's eyes other than the media's,
so that one day the image of beauty can change.
MEET THE PHOTOGRAPHER

courtney ‘nikki’ etienne has been an artist almost her entire life. She began to draw & paint at a very early age. It is in these early childhood memories that she turns to for inspiration & dreams of ways to create something new. Aside from one photography class in high school, she is completely self taught. She has always had an eye for a picture, but it wasn’t until later that she found herself wanting to do more. After working in the fashion & music industry, one thing was clear to her: no one knew who they were because the image of beauty was so misconstrued.
“I feel like we have been missing the mark for years. I’m so tired of where the image of beauty is today...how the media influences it....that’s why I got in this business, to show people what real beauty is. It is time we took back what pop-culture is saying & showing about beauty. It’s time to start changing image.”
