Introduction
My love for photography started with Polaroids and throwaway cameras—just a kid chasing light and laughter, snapping goofy outtakes of myself, family and friends. I didn’t know it then, but I was quietly collecting the magic in all the ordinary moments. In 2009, I picked up my first “big girl” camera to freeze time with my own kids, and honestly? I’ve been chasing those beautiful little in-betweens ever since. Fast forward and I’m still obsessed with the preservation of fleeting, mundane moments. I’m here to document your life, not stage it. Whether it’s the quiet in-between glances of your wedding day, the spontaneous laughter (or meltdowns) of a family session, or the everyday beauty of your lifestyle moments, my aim is simple: to tell your story honestly. My style is deeply photojournalistic, rooted in a love for the beauty that exists in the real and the unrehearsed. I believe the most powerful images are the ones that aren't posed—they're felt. I chase emotion, not perfection. I look for the subtle, fleeting moments: the nervous breath before “I do,” the tear that escapes during a toast, the wind catching a child’s hair mid-giggle. I lean into natural light, honest composition, and the beauty of imperfection. Every frame is crafted to feel raw, timeless, and completely you.

Nikki was an absolute joy to work with! She captured every special moment so naturally, without ever feeling intrusive. She’s kind, professional, and has a gift for storytelling through her lens. We loved our photos and would recommend her to everyone!

I’m so glad I found Nikki on thumbtack. She took pictures of my husband’s and my elopement in the mountains. She was easy going and comfortable to have there. Her pictures were amazing! Thank you!

Nikki is super kind and sweet and takes amazing pictures! She caught literally every moment of our wedding and reception and we laughed, cried, smiled, and oohed and awwwed over each pic like we were living the moment again. Book Nikki, she'll make your event memorable for life with the best photos!

Absolutely beautiful photos! The only thing we wished for was a bit more communication after our wedding regarding when the photos would arrive.

Nikki was great to work with. Very responsive to our messages, great value for the price. She was so kind and captured so many great moments. I can't imagine things turning out better than they did. (Plus, she did an excellent job of not getting in the way. I didn't even notice her taking photos during the ceremony)
