Nicole Balzano's Portfolio |
I was born and raised in a boring, suburban town outside of New York City. Growing up I was never really pushed to do great things with my life. I just accepted religion as my #1 priority. Than one day a tragic event opened my eyes to world outside my window. I realized, there has to be so much more than just THIS. Now that I've seen what this world has to offer me, I know what I have to offer it. Growing up we never had much money, so I never had the most expensive, designer items. Instead I learned how to budget money and look good despite financial circumstances. I bring the same quality to all the work I do. I can find exactly what you need on any budget. I currently live in Los Angeles, CA, and put my love for fashion into styling wardrobe for Film, Video, Photography, and Celebrity clients. |
