Have fun and look great!

Playful, fun, energetic, beautiful, contemporary wedding and family photography. My goal for every session is to provide you with beautiful images that were fun to create. I walk away from every session knowing that my clients have had an experience being photographed that was nothing like their expectations. I know... most people find it painful to be in front of the camera. The biggest compliment I can get (and I hear it often :) ) is "That was so much fun!" and "I actually like that picture of me!"
In my thirteen years as a photographer I have seen it all. I have gotten stressed out moms to laugh with their daughters just before a wedding, grumpy grandfathers to sing with me and 18 month old children to stare right in the lens. The result - fun on their faces every time!
If you are looking for a photographer with an upbeat, outgoing personality, get in touch! I would love to hear all about your upcoming wedding or help plan your family photo session. Cheers! - Nicki

Final 2016 Ten Minute Family Sessions

I spent another weekend with amazing 10-minute family sessions, and this last weekend was filled with rideable sessions. From Borderland State Park to Governor Oliver Ames Park to Chilson Beach, I had a blast photographing kids and families, especially because the weather was incredible and all my families got to benefit from Mother Nature’s good mood.

A lot of these sessions consisted of gift portraits for grandparents, and I spent a lot of time photographing groups of small children hoping for that elusive picture when everyone is smiling and looking at the camera. Oh, what fun we had! I had them running and jumping like jellybeans!

This weekend was also filled with dogs, with some brave families even bringing more than one. But of course, that’s my favorite thing to do—I love photographing dogs and children, because you never know what you are going to get. It’s the perfect way to appeal to my sense of adventure.

To date, I have photographed over 50 families in 2016. It’s been a whirlwind of fun!
