Hello, my name is Nikki

I am a wedding and family photographer for the sentimental and nostalgic. I am driven by a passion for storytelling and documenting your life for you to keep forever. I am rooted in Chicago, IL, but will happily pack my bags to travel to wherever your story takes you. From the exchanged promises on your wedding day to the "tippy tappy" little feet running around your home for an intimate family session, I treasure the opportunity to document every season of my clients' lives. Becoming my couples' and families' forever photographer is an honor I do not take lightly.

A Sprinkle Of Kind Words

"SHE. IS. AMAZING. My husband and I were lucky enough to have Nikki shoot our wedding this July and we could not be happier. First of all, she is just so lovable and makes everyone feel comfortable. Second, her photos capture every emotion from the day perfectly. We got our sneak peeks back a few days later and I was crying like it was my wedding day all over again. I will literally be recommending her to everyone I meet. A kind, genuine, artistic soul." - Amber + Max

"Nikki was amazing!! She photographed our wedding and she seriously blew us away. She captured the day so beautifully, and she made sure everyone felt comfortable and had fun! I could tell that she took her time editing the photos because they look so professional. Some of my friends and family even said that our photos looked like they came straight out of a magazine! You will seriously not regret booking Nikki as your photographer! 1000000/10 would recommend!" - Katie + Spencer

"Nikki was such an important part of our day. I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat. She put us at ease and made the photos a fun part of the day. She was so natural about it and didn't make us feel like we had to pose. We felt like she was just as excited for us as our friends and family were. She was so sweet. And her photos turned out beautifully. We are so excited to have them as keepsakes and work with Nikki for all milestones in the future." - Molle + Logan
