Hi, I'm Nicole!
I'm a wedding photographer based in Lake Geneva, WI. I have a daughter, 2 golden doodles, and am married to my high school sweetheart.
My editing style is classic and true to color, ensuring your photos never go "out of style"; your galleries will be filled with traditional poses, but also genuine, candid moments. You'll catch me crying during your vows and potentially dropping it low on your dance floor ;)
I'm totally "Midwest nice" but will be your biggest defender against any stressful moments on your wedding day. I am all about supporting you in having your best day ever, whatever that entails.
Why choose me?
I am a huge hopeless romantic, so I truly am invested in you, your love story, and portraying it through photos.
My approach to every wedding is prioritizing you having a genuinely good time! The goal is always to support you, keep you on schedule, and be your friend- you're spending the whole dang day with me, I'm going to make sure you're having fun!
Yes, I will guide you through poses and the chaos that is family portraits, but I can also touch many other parts of your day; I make sure to help fluff your dress, put on your shoes, pin your boutonniere, hold on to your wedding rings before the ceremony, arrange your grand entrance, tell you where to cut your cake, and so much more.
I don't take being chosen as your photographer lightly- it's one of the biggest days of your life! I am honored and so lucky to be a part of it!
The NZP wedding Process
Inquire & Book
Inquire with your wedding details and let's get the ball rolling! I will send you my wedding guide, from which you will select a wedding package that best suits your day. Once that's decided, you will receive a contract to review & sign and an invoice for the deposit to lock in your date!
I require a 20% deposit of whatever package you choose to lock in your date. Then, the remaining balance is due 2 weeks before your wedding.
Once the contract is signed and the deposit is paid, we are OFFICIALLY BOOKED! WOO!
Meet & Preparation
All my wedding packages come with a complimentary engagement session. I do this so that we can meet and get to know one another before the wedding day, so I'm not some stranger following you around on the day of (lol)- you'll learn how I pose, we'll laugh, and you'll get extra pics out of it!
Leading up to your wedding day, I will send you a timeline/questionnaire document for you to fill out. This will help us create a concrete timeline to follow on the day of, as well as provides me with key information about your wedding party, important details, a family portrait list, photo requests, and more.
About a month before your wedding, we will hop on the phone to finalize all the things you've spent so long planning and do the final countdown until your best day ever!
Wedding Day!
When the big day is finally here, I will arrive ready to HYPE YOU UP! From details & morning prep to reception & our goodbyes, I'm ready to be your right-hand gal all day longgg!
