Don't wait until life gets a little less crazy to capture you and your family.

Hey there! I'm Nicole!

i'm passionate about capturing the beautiful moments of your life.

I’m a Phoenix, Arizona based family photographer and absolutely LOVE my job! Being a mom myself, I see how quickly my daughter is growing and know that the only things I’ll have to hold on to in the future are the photos I capture of her. I love being the one behind the camera directing and helping my clients through a fun and connecting experience.

I specialize in working with families with children of variety of ages, from newborn babies to young adults. Sessions with me have a fun and positive atmosphere, even if that means I have to resort to a little potty humor! I will work with the whole group as well as individuals to capture your unique personalities. Your family matters to me!

As a former special education teacher I feel confident in my ability to work with a wide variety of children and teenagers. Nothing makes me happier than to hear a teenage boy (or dad!) walk away saying, “that was actually a lot of fun!”

At the end of my sessions I often feel like I’ve just made new lifelong friendships. I can’t wait to feel the same way after working with you!

My COMMITMENTs to yOU

1. Fast Turn Around

I know you are excited to see how your photos turned out and so am I! You will receive a full gallery of your images within 2-3 weeks of our session. 

2. Natural and Relaxed Posing and a PATIENT photographer

You’re not the only one who may feel uncomfortable in front of the camera and that’s why I’ll come prepared to help best pose you…you’ll notice those butterflies disappearing within minutes! I also know how stressful it can be to do family photos. I can assure you I am up for the task and will approach every situation with a fun attitude and LOTS of patience.

3. Beautifully Edited Images

During my editing process I will carefully look over all of your images and pay close attention to skin tones, details, and more. Your photos will come out looking consistently beautiful.

Read some kind words from clients

Nicole pulled out some Mary Poppins magic from her bag and got my kids focused and smiling. She was the right balance of kind and direction giving...Nicole was quick to get my pictures back to me and my husband even loved her work!
Laci Ence
Client
Nicole was amazing to work with...she was timely in responding to emails...the actual picture session was fun too. She took time to get to know myself and family so that the pictures would truly reflect our personalities... While choosing pictures, I loved all of them!
Stacie Ireland
Client
Nicole is amazing! She was so patient with me, my 2.5 year old daughter, and our German Shepherd. I was made to feel at ease, never felt rushed, and she was persistent in getting the shots she knew she was after...I am so thrilled with our gallery!
