MEET NICOLE – YOUR NEWCASTLE & HUNTER VALLEY PHOTOGRAPHER
Hi, I’m Nicole
Photographing weddings, newborns and families is my passion. My style is natural, journalistic and honest. I love spending time with people and hearing their stories, but on the flip side, I also love spending time at weddings being a fly on the wall, that quiet observer, and capturing those moments that so quickly pass you by and become a distant memory.
My journey into photography started in 2011 while I was an Intensive Care nurse and in 2015 the photography transitioned into a full time gig.
I am a self-confessed massive sweet tooth and may or may not have been seen to swipe some treats from the dessert table and take some cake for the road.
When I’m not behind the lens you can find me glamping with my family and creating memories on my own wild adventures. Most of all, I love life and love my job and I’m looking forward to hearing from you!
I’m based in the Hunter Valley and regularly photograph weddings throughout Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, the Central Coast, Port Stephens and the Mid North Coast. I also love to travel, so if you’re planning a destination wedding further afield, please enquire for a personalised quote! I feel inspired by travel and love going to new locations with fresh eyes and a bucket load of inspiration.
MY APPROACH
Photography, for me, is all about capturing the genuine, unscripted moments that tell your unique story. I steer clear of rigid poses and manufactured smiles, choosing instead to let real emotions shine through. I know when to step back, when to cheer you on, and when to capture that raw, emotional moment that might otherwise be missed.
I create an environment where you can truly be yourselves—even if that means sharing your awkward laughs and spontaneous happy tears. My relaxed yet professional vibe helps you feel comfortable in front of the camera, allowing me to catch every subtle detail, from quiet glances to heartfelt laughter. Whether it’s the delightful chaos of your wedding day or the tender sweetness of a newborn snuggle, I’m there to document each unforgettable moment.
MY STYLE
My style is all about minimal fuss and maximum impact. I focus on capturing crisp, timeless images with elegant simplicity that highlight genuine emotion and unforgettable moments. I showcase the natural and authentic essence of every experience with a fun, relaxed vibe.
