My mission is to see perfectly from your point of view and to understand every aspect of your design or illustration needs, and to produce compelling and beautiful work to exceed every need.
My name is Nico. I am a freelance illustrator and designer and have completed many successful commissions over my nearly 10 years freelancing.
I have a passion for looking perfectly from my clients perspective, understanding exactly what is needed in a project, and crafting something truly exceptional to fit the visual needs of the assignment.
My approach has garnered me clients like Hasbro and Galaxy Press, and has landed me in the pages of Publisher's Weekly.
Here are a few statements from people and companies I've collaborate with:
"I'm very pleased with the final product. You're willingness to meet in person, availability on the phone, frequent checking to let us see how the works were progressing, estimation of finish dates and enthusiasm to our project were all at the level of outstanding - Nico, thank you so much! I will not hesitate to refer you to everyone I know! Thank you for helping to bring our script to life" - S.K.
"Nico Photos is an absolute pleasure to work with, professional in his business dealings and prompt with deliverables, and we were blown away by his ability to listen and ask the right questions to produce exactly what was needed (for book cover artwork). His preliminary sketches were so good that we could have used one of them, and the final image goes beyond awesome, capturing everything we had hoped for and more. I can recommend Nico's work without hesitation and will certainly be offering him future illustration projects myself." - C.C.
"Nico Photos is a rare breed. He is not only an extraordinary and sensitive artist, but he is a conscientious and hard worker with an understanding of imposed deadlines. I have no doubt that Nico’s abilities and ambition will make him a successful and sought-after artist. He captures moods and creates entire stories on a single canvas. As an owner of a small record company, I commissioned Nico to create all aspects of the artwork." - D.G.
Work Terms
I am very flexible and work to make myself available when you need me. I can begin most projects the same day and am available for rush delivery when needed.
I am easily reachable by phone or email.
I pride myself on my friendly, expert and swift communication skills and I feel that this is one of the traits that makes me stand out from other visual creators. This goes both ways, I will really take the time to understand your needs, as long as that takes, and I will also take care to make sure I am clear and easy to understand when I communicate to you about our project.
I offer three payment options:
Flat Rate - Full payment upfront
Flat Rate - Half payment at project start and half before final artwork or design
Hourly
