meet your photographer
I'm Nicole, your adventurous, intentional,
documentary-focused & experience-obsessed intimate wedding & elopement photographer.
talk to me
For me, weddings are the peak of all the best parts of being human - choosing someone to grow with through the years, surrounding yourselves with love & joy, letting your guard down and being overwhelmed with emotion, and celebrating the things that make your love so precious.
And I'm passionate about helping couples like you create a wedding day that prioritizes your own experience - one that allows you to be vulnerable, feel your feelings, spend that quality time with the person you are spending your life with, and infuse so much personality and character, while spending your day in a way you genuinely enjoy.
Sound like your jam?
I've got the memories - you focus on living them
let's chat
- spending time observing
- making mental notes of who means what to who
- putting myself in the best position, then waiting
- asking you often what YOU want
- giving you space to spend time together and experience your day without inserting myself into it
- capturing hugs, smiles, laughs, touches, expressions; the moments that tell the story of your day through the perspective of those who are experiencing it
A gallery full of moments that really, truly, organically happened. Photos that look like how the day truly felt. Photos that you can look back at and know that moment was true.
I want you to look at your photos and see YOU. The way you look at each other, your mom's tears when you say "I do", your best friend's laugh when they share their favourite story, your own silent language and how it makes you feel calm and alive all at the same time.
My ultimate goal is to create a relaxing and open environment for you to connect in - because this is your story, and we want to see ALL of you.

They're intentional, adventurous and want an experience that reflects their true selves and their love.
They need someone on their team who'll keep them in the moment, someone who will document the REAL feel of their wedding day, and someone they can trust with their incredibly precious memories. They want their photographer to feel like a part of the family, like an old friend, and to let them relax, be themselves and take in all the feels.
If this is you - I'm dying to meet you!

How It Works
Okay.... now its your turn!
I too just had a non-traditional wedding - my husband and I had an intimate wedding in Waterton, and we loved starting our marriage with an adventure while still sharing intentional time with our close family.
I’ve been where you are; I’ve been in the non-traditional wedding planning shoes asking, “so what about x, y, and z?” So let me reassure you - I get it.
I am equal parts homebody and travel bug - I have a huge heart for traveling and seeing the world. I also super love backcountry camping and hiking, and spending as much time outside as possible.
My homebody half loves spending summer evenings in my garden and hanging out at our acreage home.
My friends describe me as relaxed, outgoing and adventurous, and my clients describe me as calm, understanding and compassionate.
The number one thing I love hearing most from clients (besides that their photos made them cry!) is that I made them feel comfortable to be themselves, and that they felt safe to be vulnerable (something that is wildly important on your wedding day). A recent bride just told me that I'm easy to cry around - I hope that encourages you to be your complete self with me!
I truly believe every story is worthy of being told and I'll do everything in my power to give you a comfortable, warm, and happy experience with me! And believe me when I say: I think we'll be great friends.

5. Gallery Day
One week after your wedding, I'll send you a highlight gallery, because I know you'll be bursting to see! You can share these with family and friends and include them in the happy glow. About 12 weeks after your wedding, you'll receive your wedding day gallery, full to the brim with emotions and nostalgia, photos that reflect exactly how magical the day truly was.
This is the day you forget about everything else and focus on the feels of the day. Let me cover the memories, and you just focus on living it!
I mean it when I say I'm here for you. I want you to feel supported, seen and understood!
Reach out! Say hi and tell me EVERYTHING about you and your wedding plans!
After we've chatted and agree that we're the perfect fit, I'll send over your agreement, which includes a contract and invoice, including a $1000 retainer. Once this is sorted, I'll officially be your wedding photographer!
At this point, I'll mail you either your 90-page Elopement Manual, or, my 50-page handmade, personalized wedding magazine, each designed exclusively for my couples to help you design and create the perfect wedding day for you.
