This branding photoshoot in Burlington with Alex Nicholls took place in a natural‑light studio that gave us a bright, airy foundation for his portraits. The soft window light added a relaxed, organic feel to the session, allowing his calm confidence and easygoing personality to come through naturally. We kept the styling simple and the posing intuitive, creating a collection of images that feel warm, professional, and genuinely reflective of who he is.
This session was definitely one of a kind.
Alex Nicholls is a psychotherapist who uses art, play, and story therapy to support a client’s journey towards health and healing. His unique take is that he uses art and games (such as Dungeons and Dragons and Lego) to provide therapy to adults and young adults. Play Lego while getting therapy? Who wouldn’t want that?
Alex is focused on the use of narrative, trauma-informed, and anti-oppressive approaches to art therapy, helping participants reframe their own stories and encouraging them to leverage alternative perspectives in service of their mental health.
He has a fun, upbeat personality, and you’re sure to feel immediately comfortable in his presence.
