If you could have been the author of any book, what would it have been?

I'd have to pull the nerd card and say "The Brain That Changes Itself" by Norman Doidge. Fantastic book, couldn't put it down once I started reading it.

Ask me anything

Time flies, doesn't it

Hey lovelies,

I can't believe yet another semester is almost over. I've almost completed my first year of College, alive! I'll be registering for summer courses soon though, so not out of the woods yet.

I'm not entirely sure on what my plans are for the next four months, but I've been considering moving back to Victoria for the summer possibly. (While taking online courses through College.)

April will be filled with shoots, especially the beginning of the month. Make sure to check back for updates about that!

As for the next few months, I'll be shooting like mad, hoping to add more unique vintage pieces to my collection :)

My weekend was topped off with the unfortunate event of loosing my keys! I've never had this happen before. Not the end of the world, it could be worse of course, but just dying to get them back! Luckily the weekend wasn't an entire mess, as I had a great night with my best friend out on the town. xo




Oh, and one more thing - If any of you have a thing for cupcakes and live in the Victoria area, check out Ooh La La Cupcakes. Ooh so delicious !

Vintage Life

Hey all,

I've been shooting like crazy lately and very excited about my new images. (You can see them at www.modelmayhem.com/nicolemortenson)

I've been swinging a more pinup/vintage style lately and love it. Hoping to add more to my wardrobe collection soon!

Here's a behind the scenes shot from a recent shoot with Steve Lukinuk in Victoria, BC. Hair & Makeup done by me :)

So many shoots, so little time

Hey everyone,

I've been feeling lately like I don't have enough time to accomplish what I need to do.

I've been quite busy with school and booking a lot of shoots this month. Very excited and looking forward to it all, but one of these days I really need to chill out. I've been sick for about a month and I'm thinking my busy schedule has a part to play in the length of that.

I have a shoot tomorrow with a photographer from Edinburgh, looking forward to it! I'm also modeling for a College's photography fine art class and really excited about it. I've done a lot of shoots, but never for a class. No idea how many students there will be, but going to embrace the new experience with a clear mind.

I will make sure to post photos soon!

First blog. Insomnia :)


Hey everyone,


I decided to jump on the blog train, 10 years too late. Better late than never though!

I'm going to try to update this blog as often as possible. I'll keep it updated with the latest scoop on my shoots and behind the scene goodies, as well as any films I may be in.

Thanks for all of your support, xo.
