Decisive Moments ties an unquestionable knot between high-stakes photography and vigorous enthusiasm for street and portrait photography from the undeniably passionate photographer and creative Niki Byrne. She has blazed her way into the California creative scene as a feature film screenwriter and director while pursuing many interests, such as being an oil painter and helicopter pilot, all along with her sidearm of choice, the Leica Q2. Decisive Moments explores Niki’s journey of capturing beautiful photos in extraordinary moments. Such as flying a helicopter or riding dirt bikes in the desert, but where she finds her daily inspiration in the most mundane yet beautiful circumstances.
