^ I agree with Yurokei, this is a bit actressy, but it is still stunning nonetheless, and I'm still a fan of her. Her lips are a little weird here though.

she is very regal looking. But I agree that this is not a model shot. Very actressish

Something weird about her lips here but it's a gorgeous shot

Fierce !

gorgeous

I love it, but I feel it is VERY, VERY actressy!

I think the warm lighting and overall quality of the photography are what make this shot look like an actor's headshot, rather than the way Nicole herself looks (which is quite SMASHING!!!).

she's so sexy!

i guess shes getting into acting now

the expression is soft and gorgeous, look at the eye contact

so pretty! i love nicole

FIYAH!!!

This was shot by Celebrity photographer Russell Baer.

Like a sex kitten.

Gorgeous!

stunning beauty! hair is perfect, it everything in this picture is working it

Anyone notice that she kinda looks like Anneliese van der Pol? Otherwise, gorgeous.

I never thought she was pretty on the show, but wow this photo is stunning.
