Hi! I'm Nikki.

lifestyle + branding photographer

I’m a photographer, mom of three, millennial, and professional “okay, now just relax” whisperer.


I’ve been doing this for over 10 years, and here’s what I know. The best photos don’t happen when everything is perfect. They happen when you’re laughing, fixing your hair, chasing a kid, or suddenly realizing you actually look and feel really good.


I’m big on connection. I’ll probably make a joke (usually at myself). I will absolutely tell you when you look amazing. I notice the little things. The way you look at your kids. The pride after a hard-earned win. The stolen glances from the groom ... those “I can’t believe she’s real” eyes. The quiet strength you don’t always see in yourself.


I’ve photographed everything from cozy in-home newborn mornings to elegant wedding celebrations. I’m calm in the chaos. I’ll fluff a veil, fix a boutonniere, guide you when you need it, and step back when you don’t. I take the time to learn you: your personalities, your story, your business, so I can represent you honestly and beautifully.


My job isn’t just to take pictures. It’s to help you relax, find your best angle, and feel comfortable enough to let real moments show up. That’s where the good stuff lives.


I want to capture the real you.

10 facts about me:

  1. I have three spunky, silly, goofy, and witty children.
  2. I literally wear my heart on my sleeve — I have three heart tattoos my kids each drew for me.
  3. I’ve loved Snoopy since I was eight.
  4. I’m a die-hard Disney fan. I can tell you the plot of most Marvel movies and will absolutely plan the next Disney trip in record time.
  5. I’m probably always planning my next vacation.
  6. I love fresh-cut roses.
  7. I love to read, mostly fantasy romance. I’m a romantic at heart.

  9. I run. I am always training for my next 5K or 10K. My kids run with me too.
