Nicole Lunger

Hi,

I'm Nicole. I am a recent graduate from the Missouri School of Journalism with a degree in Convergence Photojournalism. I live in the laketown village of Excelsior, MN where I grew up and attended Minnetonka High School and St. John the Baptist Elementary School. So I suppose that makes me a black and gold striped Catholic Skipper ... or something like that. 

 

I love meeting people, traveling to new places, uncovering stories and sharing what I've seen and heard with my camera. While at Mizzou, I spent my four years learning about multiplatform storytelling, and I found my passion in the visual delivery of information, opinions and human naratives. I am self-motivated, innovative and confident working in a fast-paced deadline-driven workspace. I thrive in creative environments and constantly seek out new and better ways to delivery the news, capture the moment and tell your story. I am beyond excited to be part of a new generation of storytellers that is redefining the definition of journalism.

 

I have worked at a variety of news outlets including the Sun Sailor, Vox Magazine, Missouri Business Alert, The Columbia Missourian, KCOU 88.1, and KOMU8 News. I also interned abroad in London, working at Latimer Creative Media and Yoga.com, and I started my own photo & video business for weddings, commercial, nonprofit, events and portraits.
