Graduate of Integrative Biology UC Berkeley

Nico Novoa-Marchant photographed one of the most meaningful milestones of my life, my PhD commencement ceremony, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Nico has a unique talent not just for capturing beautiful images, but for capturing you at your most alive, confident, and present.
From the moment the session started, Nico created an atmosphere that felt relaxed, affirming, and full of joy. I was graduating with my PhD in Integrative Biology, proud, exhausted, emotional, and Nico somehow translated all those layers into powerful, vibrant photographs. The final images were stunning. They made me feel happy, beautiful, powerful, proud, and even sexy, all at once.
Technically, the photos are crisp, thoughtful, and full of movement and light. Artistically, they tell a story, one of personal achievement, resilience, and celebration. But what makes Nico truly stand out is the ability to see and reflect the best version of you through the lens.
Whether you’re looking to document a milestone, express a part of yourself, or just want to feel seen, Nico brings a rare combination of artistry, warmth, and professionalism that makes the whole process feel effortless and joyful. I couldn’t recommend them more highly.
