Guys lets talk fall and thrift stores. Okay I know, you are enjoying your summer and probably don’t want to even think about the fall but lets be real – -you have to look for the deals NOW. Seriously, NOW is the time to shop for fall clothes! No one else is shopping for the fall items so the thrift store I went to, Goodwill, was LOADED with beautiful sweaters just screaming my name. I’m not talking some old, dumpy, Christmas sweater, I’m talking bout NINE WEST, LOFT and more! Check out these two simple outfits ready to go for fall from a thrift store- excluding the shoes.

The Nine West sweater below was seriously $3.99. Freaking awesome!

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!
