Nicole Butler, Newcastle and Hunter Valley Wedding Photographer

Here’s why so many beautiful humans choose me to capture their big (and little) moments:

  • I focus on real, heartfelt storytelling—not stiff poses or forced smiles.
  • My style is minimal fuss, maximum emotion—natural, authentic, and timeless.
  • I know when to step back, when to hype you up and when to sneak that emotional AF shot.
  • I create a space where you can be fully yourselves—even the awkward laughs and happy tears—and I’ll happily make a fool of myself if it means you feel comfortable and completely at ease.
  • My relaxed, warm, and slightly cheeky vibe helps you feel at ease in front of the camera—chill, but oh-so-professional, all wrapped into one.
  • I pay attention to all the details—those quiet glances, big laughs, and everything in between.
  • Whether it’s the joyful chaos of your wedding day or the calm sweetness of a newborn snuggle, I’m there for all of it.
