"I’ve been getting pictures done with Nikki for a while now, and every experience has been amazing. She is always so flexible and easy to talk to, which makes everything feel comfortable and natural. That really stands out to me because it takes the stress out of getting photos done. I always love how everything turns out, and I truly appreciate how she creates such a relaxed and enjoyable experience every time."

"Working with Nikki for our newborn session was truly such a special experience. She handled our baby with so much care and patience, which immediately put us at ease. The entire session felt calm, natural, and never rushed. She captured the tiniest details and sweetest moments that we’ll treasure forever. These photos mean more to us than we can put into words, and we are so grateful for her."
Howell Family
"When booking a photography session, I never second guess who I’m booking with! Ever! Nikki has always captured the most precious moments in my life. She has watched my boys grow and grasp their own personalities. She makes each session fun and exciting, while capturing the best facial expressions. The boys are not fans of having their picture taken or dressing up, but Nikki always works her magic to get the best photos! I highly recommend trusting Nikki with your next photo session. The investment is well worth it!"
Elizabeth Howey
"Nicole’s enthusiasm for photography shines through every photo she captures for our family. We have been repeat customers for over a decade. She has captured every angle of our life. She was at the hospital the day after the birth of our third. She captured our fourth coming home. And there were many family photo shoots in between, too. She has a heart for photography and a passion for people. She is patient and kind. All of our kids adore her. She makes the session fly by and we’re always sad to be done so quickly. The quality of her photos are exceptional. But, the passion behind her lens makes her irreplaceable."
Jenkins Family
"Nikki is such a dream to work with. We have 3 rowdy boys, and she is always so patient and kind with them. She really captures our family in our natural element (and our chaos!) and gives us the most beautiful photos we will forever cherish. She makes you feel like family, and is so personable from the very start. We love working with her and look forward to doing so for many years to come!"
Lineweaver Family
"Where do I even begin? I’ve seen her work for years and finally pulled the trigger when our son was 2 to get family photos done. Let’s just say he’s 6 and we see her at least twice a year. From day one she has always made us feel comfortable and did I mention her pictures are gorgeous…THE BEST. Since taking pictures with Nikki, we have added one more to our crew. She makes sure the poses are natural but turn out beautifully. It is never a bad day spent in front of her camera. She has been there to capture our very best moments, from our pregnancy to first birthday to everything in between. Our boys love their “aunt Nikki” I couldn’t recommend her enough."
Thompson Family
"Nikki has been such a constant in my life — from capturing my high school years to photographing me and my husband as we built our family. From holidays to milestones, watching our story unfold through her lens has been incredibly special. Her photos aren’t just pictures — they’re moments frozen in time, filled with love and authenticity. I can’t thank her enough for preserving so many chapters of our life.”
Vanessa Pritchett
"Nicole photographed our boys for the very first time when they were babies during the pandemic, and we’ve been lucky to have her capture our family ever since. Our boys absolutely adore her, which makes every session feel relaxed, easy, and genuinely fun instead of stressful. Nicole is truly an artist — her eye for natural light and her ability to turn even the most chaotic moments into beautiful, lasting memories are amazing. We’re so grateful she shares her talent with our family and can’t recommend her enough."

Hey there -
I'm Nikki!
With over 15 years behind the lens, photography isn’t just my career, it’s part of who I am. I’m endlessly inspired by light, especially the kind that shows up at sunset and turns ordinary moments into something unforgettable.
