We had the good fortune of connecting with Nico Johnson and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Nico, we’d love to hear about how you approach risk and risk-taking
For me, taking calculated risks is a major part of starting a business and the reason my career is moving in the direction it is today. A little over a year ago, I decided to work on a “powershoot”style project and exchanged my makeup services (at a discounted rate) for prints and edits for my portfolio. What I didn’t know at the time was, the shoot was being run by a casting/production company that has since hired me for many major videos and productions. No risk, No reward.Let’s talk shop?
