Introduction
I call myself an "all purpose" photographer serving Connecticut. Photography is a HUGE passion of mine! There are two things I love about photography: The first is the ability to capture a moment in time; it’s exhilarating the moment the shutter clicks. The second thing I love is interacting with you, my client. I love being able to get to know my clients and their families. I have the opportunity to quietly observe and capture moments of their love, personalities, movements, gestures and depth. It’s the greatest honor I could ever have.

We had the absolute best experience with Nicole for our engagement shoot on the beach! She was incredible to work with — warm, professional, and made us feel completely at ease from the moment we started. The photos are stunning — truly beyond what we could have imagined. If you’re looking for someone who is talented, kind, and makes the process effortless, Nicole is your person. We’re so grateful and can’t recommend her enough!

Nicole was absolutely fantastic to work with. My fiance and I wanted engagement photos taken, and I was nervous at first, but Nicole was so professional, responsive, and talented and captured our amazing moments. I sent her my inspiration ahead of time; which she studied, and caught EVERY moment I wanted. I highly recommend her, we got our proofs back in a matter of days, and I couldn’t be more happy!
