Highly recommend!

Nicole is amazing! She photographed both our engagement photos and wedding day and on both occasions she was so lovely to work with, and our pictures are something we will cherish and look back on forever. Nicole is patient, sweet, and knows how to capture all the candid moments and posed shots. I would highly recommend her, if you want stunning photos that perfectly capture your special moments!

Best wedding decision we made!

Nicole was by far our best and favorite vendor, and easily one of the BEST wedding decisions we made. She is so on top of everything, the kindest soul, and so skilled at finding the best angles, capturing the purest emotions, and taking the most beautiful photos.

During my wedding research, I had bookmarked over 80 photographers b/c I wanted to find the perfect one. What stood out to us about Nicole, besides the beautiful color of her photos, was that the people in her photos looked happy and lively, rather than stiff and forced, which is probably why my sister, bridesmaids, and I all independently chose her photos in a blind test.

Apart from being an amazing photographer, leading up to the wedding day, Nicole was always organized, and gave kind, quick, and thorough responses. On the wedding day, she effortlessly guided everyone to the right place at the right times, all while remaining kind and calm. My bridesmaids also told me she was “amazing” and "I loved her. She was so fast. And like knew exactly what to do. So articulate w her words but so gentle."

The wedding teasers we’ve received are absolutely perfect — we couldn’t possibly love them any more, and everyone else has also told me how beautiful the photos are. You will be in the best hands with Nicole and we could not recommend her more!!!

Best Wedding Photographer on the Planet!

Nicole is the sweetest, most talented photographer ever! She works so hard to get the best images. She gave us tips on how to hold hands and made us feel so comfortable. She met with us on video chat to understand our vision twice. She also hired a fantastic second shooter. Not to mention, worked very well with our video team. Last but NOT LEAST, she helped me get dressed and helped to fix my zipper. A true angel! All Brides need Nicole on their Squad! XOXO

Best Photographer Ever

Nicole is a PHENOMENAL photographer. I couldn’t recommend her enough. My husband and I used Nicole’s services for our engagement shoot and wedding day, and the pictures are better than we could’ve ever asked for. On top of that, she is so kind and laid-back, which made the wedding day a breeze. If you’re considering who to choose for your big day, take this as your sign to go with Nicole. You won’t regret it!

Photos of your dreams!

Nicole is truly the best of the best! We really needed a photographer that was going to make us feel comfortable and give us a ton of direction, and she did just that! We did our engagement shoot with her so we could meet and get familiar. By wedding day we felt so calm and comfortable with her. Her positive energy is infectious and she guides you every step of the way. My family and especially my bridesmaids were so happy and impressed with her. It made our day so incredible and we are so happy to have these photos forever!

We can't say enough wonderful things about Nicole - Hire her!

My husband and I first worked with Nicole for our engagement and we were thrilled to work with her again for our wedding.

Nicole is incredible! She truly captured the love and joy of our wedding day, and the photos are gorgeous.

Nicole is extremely warm, friendly, and has just the type of energy you want to have around you on such a special day. She does an amazing job connecting with family and wedding guests, and is very patient! We had a lot of family photos to take after our ceremony, and Nicole did a great job corralling everyone and keeping us on track with our timeline.

We can't say enough wonderful things about Nicole!

Definitely book Nicole!

I spent months researching photographer options for my wedding. At the time, I did not realize how different photographer's editing styles were. It became apparent to me that I was looking for a style that would be light, airy, and colorful. When I first met Nicole (via Zoom) we knew she would be a great photographer for our wedding. She was very responsive and made sure we had clear alignment for which photos were 'must haves' for the day of. Nicole was also instrumental in helping with our day of schedule and helped keep us on track the day of! The photos came back absolutely stunning!

Hire Nicole - you won't regret it!!

Nicole is THE BEST! We initially hired her for our engagement shoot but we loved her photos so much once we saw them that we immediately hired her for our wedding too, and those photos came out equally as amazing! Nicole did such a great job capturing all of the happiness, warmth and love from our wedding day that I feel like I’m reliving every wonderful moment when I look at them. Beyond her skills as a photographer, Nicole was such a sweet, positive person to have with us at the wedding - when it was time for her to go I didn’t want her to leave! Overall, Nicole was a marvelous addition to our day and captured every beautiful moment in pictures that our family and friends are still raving about months later!
