Empowering women of all sizes, shapes, shades, and ages through representation in beautiful imagery has been her mission for over a decade. What drives her passion is the bond she builds with the women she meets and witnessing their transformation as they see themselves in a new light.In this episode, Dante and Nicole discuss:Childhood inspiration from Vogue sparked Nicole’s love for photographyShifted mindset from starving artist to thriving creative entrepreneurEmpowers women 40+ through confidence-boosting portrait sessionsOvercame challenges around pricing, value, and redefining professionalism Launching Be|Tween and family legacy films to preserve untold storiesKey Takeaways: By intentionally highlighting overlooked individuals, Nicole creates imagery that validates and celebrates their experiences. Her work helps expand what society considers worthy of attention.Success in art isn’t reserved for a select few—it belongs to those willing to break traditional molds and redefine their value.Her portraits do more than capture faces—they shift mindsets, restore confidence, and affirm identity in ways that ripple beyond the studio.Nicole adapts to each client’s energy, creating a safe space that invites authenticity without pressure or performance.By intentionally choosing the voices and visuals in her daily life, Nicole stays connected to the issues and stories that fuel her creativity.“You got to be excited to get up and do it. Because, you know, the money part of it can be a little trickier, because it's art, and the way that you're going to be able to make it a sustainable career is because you love to get up and do it. And I think you really have to have tunnel vision about who you allow to influence your decision about your craft.” - Nicole BartonConnect with Nicole Barton:Website: https://www.nicolebartonphotography.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/nicolebartonphotography Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nicolebartonphotography/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@nicolebartonphotography Connect with Dante Royster:Website: https://www.danteroyster.com/Epic Mortgage Website: Epic Mortgage, Inc.
