Despite not being able to travel as much as she used to due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Nichols still turns to nature for her inspiration. "I've just been finding what I like to call beauty and inspiration in everyday nature," she told POPSUGAR. "Flowers from the grocery store or the tree in backyard, for example. I challenged myself to photograph one tree every day for five days to see how it looks different. Lately, things like that have been a huge source of inspiration."
