Isabella Nicolé Photography & Film 
Rating: 5.0 (5 reviews)
Nipomo, CA
  • Photographer
  • Editorial style
  • Starts at $750

I am a luxury portrait and wedding photographer on the beautiful Central Coast (with a stint spent in the Midwest). I discovered my love for photography while at Allan Hancock College and have spent the last 4 years learning, growing, and perfecting my style and flow. I took a few years to travel around and find where I wanted to end up, and, of course, after spending a few years in the Midwest with my husband, my inspiring home called me back, and we, and our little boy, Stetson, now live in Nipomo, CA. We spend our free time walking on the beach and mountain biking.

“Very thankful we found this amazing photographer to capture our family’s first Christmas together as a family of 4! The pictures turned out amazing & exceeded my expectations! I will forever cherish these wonderful pictures! Isabella was awesome to work with & captured my family beautifully!”

“I can't say enough good things about The Backyard on Thirteenth! We held our wedding reception there in April 2021, and it was an absolutely perfect experience. From the very beginning, owners Rus and Amy went above and beyond to help us prepare. Planning a wedding is always stressful, but we were doing so during COVID, which added a whole extra layer of complexity. We also lived about 4 hours away and hadn't even seen the space in person before booking. Rus and Amy's communication, flexibility, and genuine care made us feel completely confident in our decision. The venue itself was everything we wanted and more. It had a private, laid-back atmosphere that was exactly the vibe we were going for. It wasn't just a beautiful space; it also offered fantastic beer and wine! Since our wedding, we've returned to The Backyard on Thirteenth for other events, and it truly feels like a home away from home. It's a special place, and we're so grateful to Rus and Amy for making our wedding reception so unforgettable. I highly recommend The Backyard on Thirteenth to anyone looking for a unique and wonderful venue.”

I am a lifetime Central Coast resident, born and raised in Templeton. I have spent most of my career in the hospitality industry. It wasn't until I started a job in catering management that I realized I had a passion for weddings.

Most recently I landed a job in Venue Management and that is when I knew I wanted my own wedding planning business. In my free time I love to go hiking, lift weights and spend time with my family, including our 4 rescue pups. I look forward to meeting you!

I’ve had the honor of working alongside her as an assistant for over a dozen weddings, as well as creating beautiful grazing tables for many of her couples. Sara’s commitment to her brides and grooms—and to the overall execution of each wedding—is evident from the very beginning. She is incredibly passionate, attentive, and genuinely caring. She quickly becomes more than just a planner to her clients—she becomes a trusted friend they can rely on every step of the way.

“Andy is the absolute dream to work with! We were lucky enough to meet Andy through a wedding expo event at Hunter Ranch where we won an engagement photoshoot with him through one of the event raffles. Upon formally meeting him at the engagement shoot, we instantly felt how down to earth and easy Andy was to chat and work with. He made us feel extremely comfortable and at ease during the whole shoot and then went the extra mile and got us our photos within 48 hrs. We instantly hired him for our wedding and it was truly the best decision we could have made. The time leading up to the wedding, Andy was a clear communicator always offering ideas or working with us directly to learn exactly what style, ideas, anything specific we wanted capture for our big day and when it came to the big day, he absolutely crushed the vision and went above and beyond to capture our love and connection in photo form. He was open to any and every idea and loves to think outside of the box when it comes to fun photo visions. He provided us with the most beautiful photos we could have ever wanted. He was a vital person to help us lock down our wedding timeline and ensure we took photos when we wanted and he was super great at also allowing us time to fully soak in our wedding and not be pulled away for too long each time. Andy is truly an incredible photographer and person. We could not recommend him as a photographer for any special event, and especially for weddings.”

As a food stylist, event planner, and business owner with over 25 years in hospitality and events, I believe the smallest details hold the most meaning.

“I’ve worked with LouLou Events going on about ten times now, both personally (for friends and family gatherings), as well as professionally (we at Edible Magazine hire her for both her food styling, and event production). I'm not only in awe of her style and the aesthetic she brings to any event or setup; I also appreciate her work ethic and processes. She’s quick and efficient in her responses (a dream for my type-A personality), is dependable, and has an unmatched eye for design. Everything, I mean everything, she creates is beautiful. The events always feel special and thoughtfully done. They leave a lasting impression on guests -- it is exactly what I hope for. Over time I’ve relied on her for all kinds of needs, from production and food styling for various magazine shoots; event management for gatherings; tablescape design for a cookbook party; food setups for long shoot days.

“I had four (yes, four!) bridal makeup trials and I’m so grateful to have found Taylor! I was looking for a natural makeup look but it seemed impossible to find. The other trials left me with cakey foundation that actually made my skin texture look worse than it normally does without makeup. Taylor suggested that I look up celebrity reference photos as opposed to your typical bridal Pinterest pics. This was a game changer — great advice! Taylor paid close attention to my skin tone, skin type, and bone structure to help accentuate my features. She was so kind, professional, on time, and made the experience so effortless for my bridal party and I. I felt so beautiful thanks to Taylor. I wish I could have her do my makeup every day!”

Hi! Im Rachel, the face behind EverWild Photography, happily based on the beautiful Central Coast. My approach is simple: I’m here to capture the real stuff. The kind of moments that happen in a blink—the way your partner looks at you when you’re laughing, the quiet hand squeeze before you walk down the aisle, the little glances and laughter that make your day uniquely yours. My style blends candid storytelling with a relaxed vibe, so your photos feel natural, connected, and full of emotion. Imagine flipping through your favorite memories, only prettier!

Hi, I'm Sarah...your San Luis Obispo (and beyond) Wedding Photographer, and I’m obsessed with giving you the experience and photographs you deserve. After 15 years in the industry, I don't just show up to your wedding and snap photos. I’m here to listen to your vision, identify what’s important to you and then deliver an entire experience you'll love from start to finish. With me, you'll have the CONFIDENCE that I know exactly how to make all of your photos (yes, even those “posed ones”) tell the real – intimate, romantic, fun and adventurous – story of your day!

“From the moment we started working with Sarah at Mirror's Edge Photography, we knew we had made the best decision for our wedding day. Her communication style is simply the best ever - she was so communicative and so willing to listen to all of our ideas and preferences. Sarah went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and confident, building us up like no one else. I cannot recommend Sarah enough, she is amazing at what she does and makes you feel wonderful no matter what you use her for. I started with a boudoir shoot, then engagement photos and wedding photos...so clearly it worked! I've also used Sarah for family photos and will never use anyone else as long as she's working. Don't walk, run to Mirror's Edge Photography - you won't regret it!”

“Victoria created the wedding florals of my dreams!!! She completely understood my vision, but then made it 100x better than I could have imagined. She is such a joy to work with and was so flexible and understanding as the color scheme and design evolved. Working with her was truly one of the highlights of wedding planning for me and I'm already dreaming up future events I'll need flowers at (she is really that good!!!!) I cannot recommend her enough!”
