I married the love of my life in Dec 2023 which only made my heart swell more & more for not only photography and this business of mine, but for the deeper meaning of marriage itself, and what it truly means to marry your Beloved!

I’m Nikki. A Florida-based wedding photographer documenting the wild, sacred, beautifully imperfect parts of getting married. My approach is documentary, nostalgic, and a little bit undone. I’m there for the moments you didn’t plan for: your dad trying not to cry, your friends losing their minds on the dance floor, the quiet five minutes alone together, the weird little in-between moments you won’t realize mattered until years later.

After our daughter, Walker Ann, passed away unexpectedly, I felt God tugging at my heart. I have experienced the quote "babies don't keep" first hand and I believe that my clients deserve to have their children, their family, and their memories captured in the moment. No matter what stage your family is in, whether you're getting married or growing a family, I feel as though God has led me to use my gift of photography to serve others. I have learned in my journey of loss that grief and joy can coexist. It is such a joy to be able to provide memories that last forever in the form of a photograph. I look forward to serving you!
