I’m Nicholas Piparo, the guy behind the camera, in front of the fire, and knee-deep in the rivers of Wisconsin.
From camping trips and fishing adventures to chasing whitetails in the fall, this state has given me everything I love.
My mission is simple:
Get more people outdoors and remind them what makes Wisconsin special.
I didn’t come from much.
Small-town kid, a broke family, and a dream that never seemed to fit the mold.
When I was 13 I started bussing tables at Joe's 'K' Ranch in Cudahy and spent my teenage years working construction full-time at EK Construction out of South Milwaukee.
I learned early what hard work really meant and that nothing in life comes easy.
I’ve built things, lost them, and started over more times than I can count.
When I was 19, I rented my own shop and started my first business, doing landscaping, fixing small engines, and working on cars.
I took on anything that kept the lights on and the dream alive.
It wasn’t glamorous, but it was mine.
I built it from the ground up, lost it, and built again.
I was chasing dreams, learning through failure, and trying to turn passion into something real.
Through all of it, one thing never changed.
The outdoors was there.
Wisconsin’s waters and woods raised me. They healed me when nothing else could.
The sound of a river, the stillness of a hunt, the quiet in the trees.
When life got heavy, that’s where I went.
That’s where I found peace, purpose, and perspective.
It’s why I do what I do now.
Sharing the same feeling that carried me through life’s challenges.
Eventually, I had to rebuild.
Not another business, but myself. I’d spent years chasing everything except peace, losing sight of what I was really after.
So I slowed down. Got honest. Put the same discipline that once fueled my grind into my health, my clarity, and my faith.
Little by little, things began to align.
I found purpose again in the same places that raised me.
The woods, the water, the quiet.
I realized the detours weren’t setbacks. They were lessons, preparing me to come back stronger.
Now every move I make comes from gratitude for the past that built me, the present that grounds me, and the future I’m ready to earn.
Piparo Productions isn’t just the business I'm building.
It’s the full circle of everything that made me the man I am today.
Experience the outdoors like never before. From camping trips to fishing adventures my videos take you straight into the action. Raw, unfiltered, and 100% Wisconsin.
