Dayana (5) tries not to show her fear. Over 100 police surround the refugees and begin to evict hundreds of men, women & children who have lived on the sidewalk for 5 months. 1 March 2020, Cape Town

Biography: Nicole's love for photography was ignited decades ago, yet it was only when gifted with her first DSLR in 2019, did passion become reality. A story told through eyes in portraiture or capturing the unexpected in street photography are both food for her soul. A great passion is working on projects relating to humanitarian and social issues. Driven by moments which stir something deep within, her intention is to expose and initiate change through her visuals in hope of making a difference in the lives of those who do not have a voice. In essence, actioning the philosophy “pay it forward”.
