She made my whole family feel comfortable, my kids were engaged and followed her calm and positive spirit. She really got their personalities to shine through. Not only did she get some amazing posed photos where she told us exactly how to pose, focused on details like phones in pockets and hair in the right place, she got the most adorable candid photos too. We are obsessed.
“No words to express how amazing our experience was with Nicole.”
My husband and I hired Nicole for our engagement/proposal shoot and our wedding and we are SO SO SO glad we did. Our photos came out BEYOND BREATHTAKING. Nicole came up with her own pose ideas given the lighting, location, etc. My husband and I cannot recommend Nicole enough. She puts her whole heart into what she does and it truly shows. Thank you so much, Nicole. You make us look like movie stars and we're beyond grateful.
“If you're looking for a photographer, look no further. Nicole is it!”
Nicole and her team have great energy. They made my fiancé, family, and friends feel welcomed. She did a great job going along with the flow and stepped in to direct us on posing effectively. Nicole made sure she stayed in contact with us while we waited for our photographs and video to be delivered. Their team gave us a variety of photographs and listened to the type of shots we wanted.
“The final package we received and our video brought tears to our eyes.”
When my wedding wasn’t going as planned like I hoped, Nicole took charge. As much as it was a pretty hectic day, the results were unbelievable. Photos were phenomenal and our wedding video was a tear jerker. Additionally, communication with Nicole was absolutely incredible, I would hire Nicole again for our maternity shoot soon. You won’t regret it, this is an amazing team! Thank you!
“Nicole and her team are by far the greatest photography team.”
Where do I even begin. Nicole did an incredibly phenomenal job with not just our wedding photos, but the videos. The views, our facial expressions, all the timeless moments.. she captured everything down to the tiny important details that make your wedding so unique and precious. The Highlight Film was incredible, she found all the sentimental parts of the ceremony and speeches and overlayed them across the entire video.
“Everything I wanted to remember she captured in such a beautiful way.”
Her instagram is what caught my eye and I fell in love. She was super quick to respond my inquiry and made everything easy. The day of the shoot I was definitely nervous and didn’t have any poses planned. Thank goodness I was in good hands. She made my fiancé and I feel very relaxed and comfortable. We were laughing the whole time. She captured timeless shots that I will never forget.
“Having Nicole for my engagement pictures was truly amazing.”
I talked to her ahead of time about what I wanted and she fulfilled my expectations and way more! Nicole will go above and beyond for you. She made me feel so beautiful and we both felt extremely comfortable. The pictures were stunning!! I could go on and on forever!!
“Nicole took our engagement photos and I was BLOWN away!!”
