Documentary and Lifestyle Wedding Photography
Documenting Real Love Stories
Choosing a photographer for your wedding day means more than just picking someone to take photos. It's about choosing someone that you trust and feel comfortable with to be there and to capture every intimate, emotional, romantic, and unforgettable part of one of the most magical days of your life.
On your wedding day, I'm more than just your photographer. I'm your problem solver, your hype woman, your coordinator, and an unofficial part of your bridal party, your team, your family.
I'll be with you not only from the moment you arrive at your venue to your last dance with your partner, but also throughout your entire planning process. I'll be there for every late night question, every sudden strike of Pinterest inspiration, and every moment of uncertainty and excitement leading up to your wedding.
It's not an easy decision to trust someone to document one of the most important days of your life and to let them in to some of your most vulnerable and personal moments, and it's not something I take lightly. Your story is important and deserves to be remembered through beautiful photographs, and I'm honored to be considered as your photographer.

Real Weddings
The first step to securing me as your wedding photographer! You'll fill out this form and I'll get back to you ASAP. From there, we'll schedule a little chat either over FaceTime or at a local coffee shop and we'll go over the fun stuff-- Your wedding date, your venue, how you fell in love! This part is all about getting comfortable with each other and making sure we're both good fits and then we can move forward to planning the photography coverage for your big day!
Love at First Sight
From your initial inquiry to our first meeting!

Making It Official
Securing your date and talking details!
Officially booking me as your wedding photographer! To officially secure your wedding date and finalize your photography coverage, I need two things: a signed contract and a 25% retainer fee. Once that's taken care of, we can move on to the really fun stuff: Planning and preparing to document your wedding day! During this time we'll schedule an engagement session (included in your package!) so we can get used to each other in front of and behind the camera and we'll kick off the countdown for your wedding!

Honeymoon Phase
Beginning to plan all the details of your day
For me to give you the best photography coverage possible, I need as many details and as much information as you're willing to give me! This takes up the months in between you officially booking me as your photographer and the last couple of weeks leading up to your big day. I will send you a mega questionnaire about the big day, we'll swap Pinterest inspiration back and forth, and we'll continuously discuss and go over all the little details that will make your wedding day magical!

Feeling Butterflies
More details, Finalizing a schedule, getting excited!
The home stretch! The final couple of weeks leading up to one of the biggest days of your life! We'll have a last minute meeting where we talk about what moments you want to prioritize, what you want the structure of the day to flow like, and what your must-have shots are. We'll make up a photo timeline for the day and we'll celebrate your last few days before marriage!

Your Experience
I strive to provide the most informed, organized, low-stress, comfortable wedding photography experience possible, from the very first inquiry right after you're engaged to the moment I send you your finished gallery after you're already newlyweds.
Below is a sneak peek at my booking process and timeline before the wedding day, broken down step by step.
The best to ever do it! From the way she takes the photos, makes you feel wonderful, edits them beautifully, all the way to delivering them in a timely manner! We could not have asked for a better photographer for our wedding day. We’ve had sooo many compliments. Soo many people reaching out to see who did our photos! Truly the best experience ever!
- Shelby & Andrew
Nichole is the best photographer weve ever worked with. She did our surprise engagement perfectly and did our wedding. You get amazing photos and a lot of them. She will forever be our photographer for anything that we need. love love LOVE
- Kristina & Bradley
- Cali & Bryan
I cannot recommend Nichole enough! She made my husband and I feel so comfortable during our sessions and was very intentional with the information and picture inspiration that she got from us in order to make sure that the key shots we wanted on our big day were captured.
Not only did she take beautiful, structured photos, but her attention to detail and eye for creativity gave us so many gorgeous details shots and candid shots of ourselves, our day, and our guests. Looking through our gallery after our wedding was like reliving the day but even better because Nichole captured so many moments that we didn't get to see.
