I cannot say enough great things about Nikki. She is everything you can ever ask for in a photographer for one of the biggest days of your life. She is the best hype women you’ll ever meet & makes taking so many photos a breeze! We made sure when we rescheduled our wedding that the new date worked for Nikki because there was no way we were going to have anyone else do our photos for the day! She has different package levels to offer based on your budget & what you’re looking for. We wanted a second shooter & she coordinated that. She is worth every penny & we cannot wait to cherish her photos for the rest of our lives! 100/10 recommend!

I CANNOT RECOMMEND NIKKI ENOUGH. From start to finish, Nikki was not only our favorite wedding vendor, but also someone we could rely on for everything from timeline help to outfit choices, from teaching us how to pose for a photo to helping choose our bridesmaid colors. She brought so much excitement to our engagement and wedding that made the time leading up to and the big day so much more special. We loved her photography style so much that we adapted our initial vision to match her style and it was the best decision we made. Our photos are timeless, warm, so reflective of the overwhelming love we experienced that day, and already so very cherished. She captured every moment, every emotion, and every person exactly right. Her apprentices also did a fantastic job. Every single person who has seen the photos has specifically pointed out how good our photographer was. Aside from her incredible work as a photographer, she is all around a delightful person, easy to work with, kind, and fun! She was reliable beyond belief, and I never had to worry about anything with Nikki. I cannot recommend Nikki enough, and plan to hire her for all our special events in the future.

We are so happy with Nikki Kate Photography! Nikki is wonderful and our wedding was shot by Karley and London of her associate team. We are both a little awkward with posed photos but they made us feel totally comfortable and calm. They made sure to get all of the photos we wanted and more. Although it's too soon to see the full gallery, we loved the previews and couldn't wait to leave the review! Definitely would recommend.

Finding the right photographer for our wedding day was the top priority on our planning list. I can safely say that Nikki was the absolute perfect choice and delivered EXACTLY what we were looking for in a photographer - we couldn't be happier! Nikki's editing style is gorgeous and she goes above and beyond for her customers. She delivered our "sneak peaks" (which were almost 70 photos) the morning after our wedding! She also met with us several times without the process and was so considerate of what we were looking for in our big day. I'm pretty sure we hit every single shot on our shot list. She also was a phenomenal cruise director, and kept our timeline on track to make sure we didn't waste a moment of our day! Finally, Nikki's team was also great, the second photographer spent most of the day with Garrett and made him and his groomsmen feel comfortable and stylish! All of her pictures turned out amazing as well, and she even helped them with their bowties, so she was really the MVP of the day. We could not be more grateful with how our photos turned out, and the amount of compliments we get on them are endless. THANK YOU SO MUCH to Nikki and her team for capturing the greatest day of our lives better than we could have imagined!

It’s hard to put into words how incredible it was working with Nikki for our Sept 2022 wedding. For starters, Nikki is an incredible business woman. Her photography website is clear, easy to navigate, and draws you in with her beautiful photos. Her process of signing contracts, making payments, and receiving photos is incredibly easy. She is always so fast at responding. Beyond the business aspect of it, Nikki is an incredible human and photographer! From the first time we met in person at our engagement shoot, Nikki just radiates positive energy. She made myself and my now husband feel so comfortable and natural in front of the camera. I highly recommend doing an engagement shoot and bringing your dog! She made taking pictures with our wedding party around the city so much fun! Everyone loved working with her. She’s creative, organized, and she creates the most beautiful photos. She captured everything we could have ever dreamed of on our wedding day-from the intimate moments, to the small details, to getting down on the dance floor-she didn’t miss a second. And she even took some video clips and made some super fun Instagram reels for us! As well as some polaroids which were so fun to have! The morning after our wedding we woke up to a preview of almost 70 photos! We could not believe how fast she worked to get us those. We have gotten numerous compliments on the photography from our wedding. Her vibe perfectly matched our September Winery wedding. If you’re looking for a kind, talented, and overall wonderful person to photograph your wedding-look no further than Nikki. She made our day so special and because of her we have a couple thousand beautiful photos to forever remember our special day!

We spent a lot of time looking at photographers since photos are what last the longest from your day, and we couldn’t be happier that we chose to go with Nikki Kate Photography. Nikki is an absolute delight to work with - she’s organized, talented, and so excited for every couple. We worked with her associates on our wedding day, and both Brooke and Noelle were upbeat, excited, and did a phenomenal job of making everyone look and feel natural. They were the perfect addition to our day! Nikki sent us sneak peeks within 24 hours of our wedding day and the entirety of our package to us in record time. We love our photos and are having a hard time choosing what to print!

Nikki is awesome! We had so much fun during the session and photos are amazing. Nikki is a great photographer not only with the skills for photos but also with the ability to make the session memorable and relaxing for the couple. She is responsive and punctual. Also, it was amazing how she could pull off something like this at a place where she had never been to before. So, just pick your favorite and memorable place and Nikki will take care of the rest. It was magical! Thanks Nikki. You are the best.

Nikki was the bomb. She made us feel so comfortable and our beautiful pictures reflect that. She took her time with every detail and we couldn’t be happier with our photos. We will cherish these forever. She captured our timeless theme perfectly.

From the first time we met Nikki for our engagement shoot all the way up until our wedding day, she was so incredible and friendly to work with! She is such a sweet and genuine person and lights up the room with her bubbly personality. My now husband and I have never taken professional photos before meeting with Nikki so we weren't sure what to expect, but she quickly made it so easy for us to feel comfortable and have fun during the whole process! We had to postpone our original wedding date because of COVID, as did many other couples, and when we were looking at a new date we knew that having Nikki continue to be our photographer was our #1 priority. We worked around her rescheduling availability in picking our new date and she was so accommodating throughout it all.

We had the best wedding we could have ever imagined and it's so amazing to see how perfectly Nikki and her brother Jared captured it all. Our family and friends had nothing but amazing things to say about them both and Nikki made everything feel like a breeze. She is so exceptional with her work and really knows how to make her couples feel special. We feel so lucky that she had sent us a handful of photos to look at the very next day after our wedding and we still can't stop looking at our entire wedding album! Nikki truly goes above and beyond for her couples and it doesn't go unnoticed.

Also, if you have any fur babies, she will do everything to make sure they get captured in your special day! We will cherish our pictures with our dog Duncan forever thanks to her. Having Nikki as our photographer didn't feel like just having a random vendor show up and take photos, we actually got to form a relationship with her and for that, we are forever grateful. We love you, Nikki!! Thank you again for everything - T & E

Nikki is the BEST! We could not be more grateful that we worked with her for our elopement here in Chicago this summer! We initially contacted Nikki because we loved the style of her photos and because of her reviews. Due to COVID, we had decided to do a ceremony with just the two of us. Given that it would be pretty intimate- us, our officiant, and a photographer - it felt even more important to work with someone who we felt comfortable with. She made the day more joyous with her positive energy and support.

In the weeks leading up to the wedding, Nikki Zoomed with us and was so responsive via email. She was so helpful in helping us make a game plan for the morning, in facilitating transportation throughout the day (she found a driver for us, thank you!), and in pre-empting all weather-related and timing concerns.

The morning of our wedding, Nikki arrived early at our apartment to shoot photos of us getting ready before our “reveal.” In addition to taking stunning photos, Nikki tagged in as the MVP of the morning helping with last minute dress buttons and bow tie-tying adventures! Throughout the morning ceremony at Northerly Island, photos in the park and at our home while we Zoomed with our families, and photos downtown, Nikki brought so much care and light to it all. Neither of us are very comfortable with photos, but Nikki put as at ease and made the whole experience so fun!

She shared “Sneak Peek” photos with us that night which were absolutely MAGICAL! The final photos that she shared with us (super timely, too!) were incredible. Nikki facilitated so many beautiful shots as well as captured fun, silly, and intimate moments. It has been so special to be able to share these with our family and friends. They have raved about Nikki’s work!!

We are so grateful to have gotten to work with you, Nikki!! What a phenomenal photographer and person to get to share our day with :)
