Flawless and Outstanding Results!

I worked as Professional Wedding DJ for many years in the Charlotte area and FINALLY got to plan my own wedding at 40 years old. Being in the industry made it "somewhat" easier as far as planning goes, but when it comes to weddings there are 3 main aspects that you can not take short cuts with... the food, the music, and the photographer!

Cliff Nichols is by far one of the best in the buisness! From the very beginning, he was upfront about all pricing and packages. We hired him months before our "date" and his communication remained very involved in the entire planning process. Two weeks before our wedding, he met us at the venue for a site visit, and brought his camera to get some fun "test shots" so that we could get an idea of what the scenery and lighting would look like for the real deal. As time approached, he created an amazing timeline that could easily be merged with our venue timeline. My wife and I were most surprised that he came to our rehearsal the day before and made very helpful recommendations. Now most everyone will say that their wedding was "perfect", but ours absolutely was! His pictures were phenomenal, and he caught every moment that we hoped to be captured. As a bonus, he even stayed a little later than contracted to get those outstanding late night DANCE pics!

If you want the BEST, please reach out to Cliff for your special day!

The best photographer I have ever worked with!

Cliff Nichols is the most talented photographer I have ever worked with. He is extremely professional - Shows up early and was at our rehearsal to ensure good lighting for the ceremony. Very creative with poses and encouraged us to come up with poses we loved and wanted to create. Cliff’s experience in wedding photography was evident in the way he organized the group photos. Several conversations prior to the wedding resulted in everything we wanted to have photographed.
Pre-ceremony photos were absolutely perfect. Cliff captured the small details of the wedding (cake table, memorial to those we lost, etc.) including family, friends and all the special and intimate moments leading up to the ceremony.
The ceremony and reception photos were above and beyond our expectations. Cliff was able to capture the formal group photos, the fun bride/groom photos, and the candid photos of the entire wedding celebration. Our ceremony photos were stunning! Cliff captured the expressions and emotions of us and our wedding party (our 4 children) as well as the guests. Every moment of the ceremony was documented with incredible thought and detail going into every picture taken.
From the ceremony and into the reception, Cliff took the time to take incredible photos of me and my husband. He made me feel like a bride from a bridal magazine! He has an impeccable eye for the details and gifted vision for the perfect bride/groom photos.
We love the candid photos of us as well as our guests during the reception. The pure love, joy, and happiness is displayed in every shot. He captured the incredible band, the dancing, the intimate moment when my daughter cried while presenting a song she wrote to my husband, and so much more.
I really cannot say enough about how amazing Cliff Nichols is as a photographer. Honestly, he is the most professional, personable, talented, creative photographer who will give you quality AND quantity. They say your wedding is just “one day.” Cliff makes your wedding day the BEST day and his photos will make your wedding much more than just one day.

Cliff is the best

My name is Joey Blethen and I work for the City of Tega Cay. We have used Cliff for many years to shoot our July 4th festivities along with other community events like Memorial and Veterans Day Ceremonies, Fall Festival, TCPD's Camp Cadet Program and TCFD Events. We have also utilized his photo booth for our Sweetheart Dance sponsored by TC Forever. Cliff always delivers a great product, an extreme professional and a pleasure to work with.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
