Headshots at Paisley & Jade with Heather

April 6, 2016

Heather’s headshots at Paisley & Jade were a hit! First off it was her birthday, and this girl was strutt’n her stuff! She was turning 25, and you couldn’t tell, right?? She walked in, looked stunning, and had such an excitement for her big day. When she came to me and asked me to do her head shots I was thinking, “Duh, OF COURSE!!” I didn’t even hesitate. I always have an amazing time when I get together with Heather. She has this energy that is contagious and If you didn’t notice from the pictures, this girl RADIATES joy!! She’s probably one of my favorite people to photograph because she gets in front of the camera and I swear, this inner model comes out. I don’t even have to tell her what to do. Sometimes she playful, others she’s a little sassy and I LOVE IT! I think we feed off each others energy and I couldn’t be more happy with the results. Heather- you know you rocked it girl!!

I'M NICKI

I see the beauty in imperfect things. As a Christ-follower, faith is central to my life, work, and connections. I am fueled by joy, known for my bubbly and sunny disposition, and always with a warm hug. Imperfect beauty inspires my love for all things vintage, abstract art, and real love stories. I love moments full of grit and emotion; life off the beaten path; stunning views along the shore; and the juxtaposition of New York grunge and laid back Cali-vibe.

As a mother of two, I am very familiar with how quickly life’s most important moments fly by too quickly. I will calmly and seamlessly guide you through frames that will endure. I strive to capture your memories with one-of-a-kind images full of meaning. I cannot wait to connect with you!

I bring all of these elements to my time with my couples. With over a decade of experience in the industry, I know how to gently guide you through poses that are natural and beautiful. The transition into this sentence doesn’t make sense. Throughout your day, you will feel the love from those there to celebrate
you two.
When I’m not photographing weddings, I enjoy long walks in the neighborhood with my husband, my kiddos Tuxie and Sunny, and my labradoodle Hokie.. Also, I am a huge dog-lover! I’m pretty sure heaven is full of dogs. I can’t wait to connect with you, and yes, your pup is always welcome here!
