Meet Nikki
I’m a fine art wedding, maternity, and newborn photographer for the modern bride and nostalgic mother. I’m also a published writer, motherhood advocate, educator and film connoisseur. It’s my deepest desire and aligned purpose to preserve marriage and motherhood through fine art imagery and written documentaries that leave legacies for future generations to come. I also advocate for women pursuing dual callings in business and motherhood as I share what it’s like being a mother in this season with my children, Mason, Liv, and Winnie, & Crew.
My wedding work is rooted in intuition and artistry—refined yet emotionally rich. I capture the in-between moments that often go unseen: the breath before a vow, the quiet squeeze of a hand, the light falling just right across a silk train. My images are timeless, textured, and deeply personal—Fine Art without the pretense. With an approach that is both calm and intentional, I create space for honest connection, allowing every gallery to feel like a living love letter unique to the narrative of your wedding weekend.
My motherhood work honors the sacred in the ordinary. I photograph from a place of empathy, allowing my motherhood clients to feel seen by someone on a parallel journey through these seasons of Becoming. Giving you the space to feel your way through a session—not perform. From first kicks to sticky toddler hands and the quiet ache of growth, these portraits are gentle and evocative, preserving fleeting seasons with reverence. Layered with emotion and light, my imagery celebrates the poetic beauty of motherhood in all its raw, radiant forms.
+ How about even more?
+ Yep, I Still Want more
An essential part of my approach to documenting weddings is being present for the entire weekend—not just the wedding day itself. Immersing myself in the full celebration allows me to connect with the people who matter most to you—your family, your friends, your inner circle—so that when the meaningful moments unfold, I can photograph them with honesty and intention. My quiet, intuitive presence puts people at ease, creating space for vulnerability and authentic connection. Cumulative coverage brings depth and dimension to your final gallery—capturing not just the day, but the feeling of the entire weekend. The result is a body of work that feels layered, intentional, and true—living proof of the aesthetic and details you so thoughtfully chose as a reflection of who you are.

There is profound value in creating tangible heirlooms for mothers—photographs that live not just on screens, but in hands and hearts. Studies have shown that children who grow up seeing printed photos of themselves and their families develop a stronger sense of identity and belonging. These images become quiet affirmations: You are seen. You are loved. You are part of something lasting. For mothers, prints are more than keepsakes—they are physical anchors to seasons that move too quickly, reminders of the sacred ordinary once it’s gone. In a world that is increasingly digital, holding a photograph becomes an act of presence, a way to return to the moments that made us.
Motherhood is the heartbeat of my work—the quiet force that shapes how I see, feel, and create. Becoming a mother changed me in ways I never expected; it softened my edges, deepened my empathy, and taught me to see beauty in the smallest, most fleeting moments. That transformation didn’t just make me a better person—it made me a better photographer. I approach every session with the soul of someone who knows the weight of these days, the ache of time passing, and the sacredness tucked inside the ordinary.
“The Method is Your Memories”
My priority is not just to capture moments, but to give you the space to live them—gently guiding when needed, but always honoring your rhythm—so that every image reflects the truest version of your story.
The Seven is my newsletter, where I've created a more personal space for sharing—one where I share my writing, favorite products, life hacks, bits of travel adventures, and glimpses of the everyday joys and challenges I experience.
Of course, this won’t mean leaving behind the work I love. From time to time, you’ll still hear about upcoming photo sessions, creative opportunities, and ways to work with me—but in a way that feels more aligned with authenticity towards what my life actually looks like in this season.
I hope you’ll join me in this new chapter. I’m excited to share more of myself with you and, as always, hear from you too. Thank you for being a part of this journey with me.
