Joyful, emotive, artistic

Photo sessions with me are stress-free and fun. I don't believe in forced cheesy smiles and awkward poses. From your first inquiry to receiving your images, I provide you with a seamless, custom experience that focuses on the genuine love and connection you share with your people.

Hi, I'm Nicole

The one behind the camera! As a mom of three young children, I have come to believe that the transformation and love that takes place in a family is sacred - something to be cherished, remembered and passed on.


With my camera, I have the opportunity to capture what matters most, to share the beauty and hope that connects us as humans, and preserve our family stories to be remembered for generations.


Fun fact - I have traveled to almost 30 countries, and spent the majority of my adult life abroad. All of my children were born in Costa Rica and hold dual citizenship. Learn more about me by clicking below.

What people are saying:

“I have had the pleasure of working with Nicole as our family photographer for several sessions, and I truly can’t recommend her enough! From the very beginning, Nicole made the entire process feel effortless and enjoyable. She has such a calm, warm presence that instantly makes everyone feel at ease, even the littlest ones who might be a little camera-shy.

What really sets Nicole apart is her ability to capture the real moments. The photos she creates aren’t just posed shots—they tell a beautiful story.”
