We have a family tradition of booking a local photographer during our vacations to capture some fun memories. I contacted a few New Haven photographers, and Nicole stood out from the beginning because she was so approachable and transparent with her pricing and packages. Through the entire process from booking to payment to the day of the photo shoot, Nicole's professionalism and experience were obvious. Our photo day at Silver Sands Beach during the 'golden hour' was colder and windier than expected, but Nicole was great in working with our family - including two young, rambunctious children! We all had so much fun, and she continued to reassure me that she 'got the shot' even when things seemed chaotic. She sent us the gallery within a few days, and it was so lovely to revisit our vacation through her lens. She captured our children and family beautifully, and gave us a great mix of photos and scenery to choose from. I would wholeheartedly recommend Nicole for capturing your special memories!

Nicole recently did a session of graduation photos for me. She was so kind, very professional and helped me feel comfortable posing and getting the perfect shot. She also had the photos in my hand within 4 days, including a weekend! She’s a very hard worker and the end results were beautiful. I hope to have another occasion soon to use her services.

Nicole has been photographing my twins since they were only a few months old. She has a wonderful way with children. No matter how much they move around, she always manages to get the most beautiful shots. She creates the most gorgeous backdrops, and she has the best ideas for poses and photo shoot locations. It is obvious she loves what she does!
