INTRODUCING NICOLE NOYCE, MPA, PPOC’S 2020 COMMERCIAL PHOTOGRAPHER OF THE YEAR
SUMMER 2020 | GALLERIE MAGAZINE | 24
By Raymond Bailey, HLM, MPA, SPA A PLEASANT FIFTEEN MINUTE DRIVE THROUGH THE SCENIC PARKLAND LANDSCAPE NORTH OF LLOYDMINSTER, SASKATCHEWAN BRINGS YOU TO NOYCE PHOTOGRAPHY. A WELL-MAINTAINED ROAD WINDS THROUGH A BLUFF OF NATIVE ASPEN TREES LEADING TO THE CONTEMPORARY AND SPACIOUS STUDIO. WITH PLENTY OF ROOM BOTH INDOORS AND OUT, THE LAKEFRONT HOME AND STUDIO LITERALLY BRIMS WITH PHOTOGRAPHIC OPPORTUNITIES. AN INDOOR STUDIO EXPERIENCE UTILIZING EITHER NATURAL LIGHT OR MORE DRAMATIC STUDIO STROBES IS AVAILABLE TO CLIENTS. A DOZEN OR MORE OUTDOOR NOOKS AND LANDSCAPES ARE AVAILABLE FOR FAMILIES OR INDIVIDUALS. AN EVENING LAKESHORE SITE IS ONLY A FEW STEPS AWAY. YOU CAN EVEN BRING ALONG YOUR OWN HORSE! I’ve known Nicole since the early 2000’s when she was starting along her photographic journey. It was evident early on that Nicole was going to be a force in fine portrait photography provincially and nationally. Every year one can see her work improving as she tests out new techniques and ideas. Being from a small mostly rural area has been absolutely no hindrance as she now stands amongst the heavy hitters of our association. Winning the Commercial Photographer of the Year award is a natural progression of her drive to succeed and how she challenges herself to push boundaries. Nicole Noyce and her team have been operating a full-service studio for the past 15 years. Nicole has been a PPOC member for most of that time, earning 12 Accreditations and the honour of PPOC SK Photographer Of The Year in 2012, 2014, 2017, and 2019. In 2014 she received her CPA designation and her MPA quickly followed in 2016.
