Metrosexuality meets Photography

About Me


Hello hello I am Nick Brickett (or Nick Brické if you prefer the french twist)
I'm a Freelance photographer, shooting for individuals and local bands such as Maritza , Slippery Nipple and China RED and sites such as Suicide Girls -- I'm currently building up my SG, Model, Band, etc portfolio - so if you need a photographer for either of these, I'll be more than happy to help out.
I'm currently looking into going to University next year maybe, to study and gain my degree in Photography, or maybe just setup my own business.
When I'm not working, you'll find me and my krew around Acorn and Paradise in Lichfield, On my Xbox 360 at home, or in front of my iMac on Photoshop & MSN, when I can be bothered.
Another place likely to spot me is Topman in the Bullring, that place is a holy shrine to me.
I'm into mostly indie & garage rock, but I'll listen to pretty much anything. Check out my bands section for my almost complete list of fav bands :)
Things I love:
Oreos, in a big way.
Also: warm rain, taking photos during a snowstorm, girls with beautiful eyes, Apple Macs, Japan & Australia, my Family, and of course - taking photos :)
I'm also the most random indie child you'll ever meet - dont let the boring exterior fool you!
My best mate in the world is Alex (or Womble/Wadham/Waddy), closely followed by Matt, Jonny, Debs & Alice - without these people I'd be a very different person, they've helped me through a lot - you guys rock :D
I'm on the lookout for a girl with similar interests (preferrably music, art and photography!), so if you wanna get to know me, send me a message :)

What I'm Listening to RIGHT NOW:

Movies:

Any Tarantino movie really, as well as major Hollywood blockbusters - that may be unoriginal of me, but then they became blockbusters for a very good reason!

Television:

24 - which I absolutely love watching, then there's Garth Marenghi's Darkplace, The IT Crowd, Peep Show and The Mighty Boosh, which are genius comedy. Throw in a bit of Family Guy, Black Adder, Top Gear, and Red Dwarf.. and then you're getting close to my kind of TV! Not that I have much time to watch it, mind ¬_¬
