I was born in Chicago, Illinois but grew up in Waltham, Massachusetts. As a kid growing up, I had a natural inclination towards drawing and a love of all things visual. I also loved and adored animals and had many happy times with pets.

In 1990 I acquired a Bachelor's Degree in Industrial Design with an emphasis on illustration. I had some great experiences in this field including display and footwear design. Along with this background, one of my greatest passions has been photography. I learned about photography very early on and used my camera extensively throughout my college years up to the present. One day, the proverbial light bulb went on in my head to combine my skills in photography with my love of animals. That's how CatDography™ was born.

Ultimately, I am making the best effort I can to be true to myself in my life's endeavors and this is my hope for you as well.

Best wishes,
Nick Vakalopoulos
