Megan & Grady’s engagement session in Harrisonburg, Virginia was an absolute blast. Did I mention they brought their sweet doggie, Finn!?? He stole my heart, and the show!!! We started off at the Arboretum and then ventured out into the beautiful country side of the Shenandoah Valley. Megan was absolutely in love with a friend’s farm and so we had to take some pictures out there!!  As we were driving up my jaw dropped – – mountains, greenery, the most perfect glow!! My heart skipped a beat and it reminded me of my days of going to JMU (I lived out in the country). I honestly felt as if I was in Heaven and my heart ached for how much I missed the mountains. Mountains are truly God’s masterpiece aren’t they!?? Megan and Grady’s love story began back in the Texas Roadhouse Days at JMU (that is where Megan and I worked). Megan worked the bar and Grady was a regular. Grady pursued Megan and won her heart!  My favorite part of this  beautiful, rustic engagement session was going into the fields. Let me tell you, these two were troopers. I told them to go in the field and then when I had to go in there I freaked out (I have this new fear of snakes). I’ll admit – I may have freaked out a few times jumping and squealing but it got them laughing and thats all that mattered! Thanks for such a fun session you two!!

HI SUNSHINE!

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!
