About Nicole

Nicole has been involved in the food industry for over 20 years….

Her career began at the age of 17 when she began a Chef’s apprenticeship in Australia. During her 10 years working in kitchens she covered many cuisines, including Italian, Thai, Indian, Japanese and Vegetarian Wholefoods before moving to London.

It is here where her career as a Foodstylist began… Working as a photographer’s assistant allowed her to be introduced to this new world and soon she had landed an in house role at Sainsbury’s Magazine. She then moved onto TV and began on UKTV food’s “Great Food Live”. Since then her career has flourished as she has worked on cookery show’s like “Saturday Cooks”, “Something for the weekend”, “The F word”, “Lorraine”, “Saturday Kitchen”, “Tom Kerridge;s Best Ever Dishes” and her favourite show that she spent over 3 years working on was “Market Kitchen”.

She has been invaluable, as the behind the scenes right hand woman to many celebrity chefs. Tom Kerridge, Bill Granger, Gordon Ramsay, Gino DeCampo, Jason Atherton, Atul Kochar, John Whaite, The Hairy Bikers, Simon Rimmer, Richard Corrigan, Ken Hom and Matt Tebbutt to name a few.

Nicole now divide’s her time between working on Cookery Shows, Cookbooks, Magazine’s and Films. Recently she was the Food Stylist on a Weinstein Film “BURNT” starring Bradley Cooper, Sienna Miller and Uma Therman (to be released in October 2015)
