“If you are here reading reviews trying to decide on a photographer for your engagement shoot, wedding, or truly any special moment in your life, this is the only review you need.
From the moment we met Nick, his kindness, compassion, and vision were unmatched. He immediately made me feel comfortable and confident. Within minutes, he asked what my favorite side was (ladies, if you know, you know!) and made sure we looked amazing from every angle. He guided us through poses seamlessly, always pointing out little details - a leg bend here, a hand placement there - so we never felt awkward or unsure. His professionalism and genuine care for his couples shine through in every shot.
We received our photos so quickly, and I was absolutely blown away. We had shared a Pinterest board for inspiration, and Nick not only brought it to life but elevated it beyond anything I could have imagined. Honestly, our gallery looks like it belongs in a magazine .. I will never get over it.
When I opened our gallery, I was speechless. My whole family cried. Every single photo was breathtaking. Nick is a master in every setting - as the sun shifted, he instinctively knew how to capture the most flattering, magical lighting. It’s been a week, and we still can’t choose just three favorites to enlarge for our home because every photo feels like a masterpiece.
I also need to mention that my fiancé owns a wedding videography company, so the bar for our photographer was set very high. He now recommends Nick to every couple he works with, because he knows no one does it better - and after seeing our photos, I completely agree.
I don’t usually leave reviews, but Nick’s talent and kindness deserve to be recognized. These were only our engagement photos, and I already can’t wait to see the magic he creates on our wedding day in 2027.
So to all the brides and couples out there: do yourself the biggest favor and book Love By the Ocean Photography. Nick is truly the best of the best, and you’ll be over the moon that you did.
With light, and SO much truth,
Lexi R.”
