How Our Photographer Buddy "Nuch" Built an Ultimate Dream Career in 6 Years

Mike Nuchereno (@nuch10), affectionately known as "Nuch," is a talented wildlife photographer turned digital archivist for the renowned band Goose. A good friend of the show and now a four-time guest, Nuch’s journey is nothing short of inspiring. 

Starting as a beginner wildlife photographer in 2019, he found his way into Goose’s orbit by photographing the band from his car at a COVID-era concert—a bold move that turned into a dream opportunity. Today, he’s living what many would call the ultimate dream: combining his passion for photography and storytelling with his love for music, all while helping to preserve and shape the future visual legacy of one of his favorite bands.
