Anna & Bradford’s river engagement in Charles City, Virginia amazing! When planning their session, I asked them where they wanted their session to be. They explained to me how secluded &  beautiful their property was. They also mentioned that it was covered in fog early in the morning.   The drive out to Charles City was gorgeous! There was old  country roads,  mom & pop stores and more! We finally ended up at their house after a long ride into the woods. The house was surrounded by the river and a quaint little pond – – I WAS IN LOVE. They greeted me with smiles and warm welcomes. You know that moment when you click with someone?? This was it. I loved this couple and fell in love with them even more after their session (we talked for at least an hour in their cozy house). We took the boat out on the pond and they brought their sweet little dog who at times played the role of captain, haha. Anna & Bradford live for adventure and that is exactly how their proposal happened; Riding their bikes on Belle Isle. Unfortunately they got a flat tire but what better time than that to propose? Bradford got down on one knee and the rest was history!  Congrats 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!
