Gayle & Ryan’s Idyllwild, California mountain engagement session was nothing less then perfect! Seriously the view – you couldn’t ask for anything better. These two cuties knew of each other through their Bible study but it wasn’t until Gayle asked Ryan for some hiking advice that they truly met. It was a match made in Heaven and they bonded over their love for the outdoors! It is clear as day why God brought these two together- they truly glorify the Kingdom. Ryan is outgoing & funny and Gayle has the sweetest, kindest personality. They live life to the fullest and love everyone around them. These things combined creates a beautiful duo. I can honestly say that I have never met a couple like them, and sadly wish they didn’t live all the way in California! Just means I’ll have to visit! 😉 Miss you guys!

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!
