Two people smile joyfully at a wedding ceremony while posing with a white floral bouquet.

WELL, AREN'T Y'ALL A BEAUTIFUL COUPLE!


After the I do’s, when the cake is long gone and your feet are recovering from the dance floor, what’s left? Your love—and the photos that bring it all back to life.


Your story deserves more than just pretty pictures. Let’s create something real, something that feels like you.

Still here? Hi, i'M NICOLE!


Congrats!! I hope this season has been filled with all the love, joy, and maybe a little bit of chaos (the fun kind). I know wedding planning comes with its fair share of stress—I’ve been there too. So in honor of keeping things real, here’s a completely candid, zero-filter, Y2K snap-and-shoot gem from my own wedding day.


I get it—picking the right photographer is a big deal. You want someone who captures the magic, the mess, the in-between moments that make the day yours. And I’d love to be that person.

Testimonials

WE ABSOLUTELY LOVE NEHAMASHOTS!! We just got married in December, and we were so pleased with Nicole and how well she captured our day. She made us feel so special and comfortable. Her ability to direct shots and capture sweet moments is something my husband and I really enjoyed since we rarely take photos! These photos will be cherished for the rest of our lives and that’s thanks to this amazing photographer! Book her now!!!!!!! We will definitely be reaching out for future events!

My goal? To capture the way your day felt—so every time you look back, you’re right there in the moment all over again.

NICOLE

MEMORY MAKER


I’m here for more than just the big moments—I’m here for the in-between. Before I was a photographer, I was a concert dancer, trained to catch movement at its peak. But I fell in love with what happens before and after—the unposed, real, fleeting moments that tell the true story. That’s what I look for on your wedding day.


My approach? Think “fly on the wall” meets “honorary bridesmaid.” I’ll be out of sight when you need me to be, making sure your guests have an unobstructed view, but also ready to fix a dress, track down Aunt Sally, or magically appear when you need me.


At the heart of it all, I love people. Getting to document your wedding—capturing the jokes, the happy tears, the quiet glances—is what makes this job so special. These are the photos that only get more valuable with time, the ones that make it onto your fridge (aka the highest honor). I’d love to be the one to capture it all for you.


Your memories mean the world to me, and I don’t take that lightly.


The best part of my job? Getting to document you—the laughs with your best friends, your grandparents glowing with pride, and your parents roasting you... I mean toasting to you!


From day one, I keep it simple. I’m here for any advice you need, and when the big day comes, I’m your behind-the-scenes go-to—making sure everything runs smoothly and catching every moment. You’ll get sneak peeks within a week (sometimes 24 hours!), and your full gallery will be ready within six weeks.



Your only job? Enjoy the day and get married!

FAQ

Q: What's your style?

A: It's a mixture of traditional and documentary wedding photography. We need to make sure to get the photos for grandmas' fridge, but then we will make sure to capture some you can submit to Vogue. I keep my editing true to the day while adding a touch of warmth to help the colors pop!

Q: When should we book?

A: It is very common for clients to book 18 months out. I do not hold dates. First to sign a contract along with a retainer paid will secure their wedding date.

Q: When are engagement sessions scheduled?

A: Engagement sessions are scheduled during the week usually two hours before sunset. Your session should be scheduled within 2 months of signing the contract. Whether it's at your home, a scenic outdoor location, or a venue of your choice, we're open to capturing your portraits in a place that holds meaning to you.

Q: Is travel included in the price?

A: Anything outside of the Chicagoland area over 40 miles away will require an additional charge.

Q: Do you charge extra on holidays?

A: There is a 20% increase in prices on holidays including but not limited to dates surrounding Thanksgiving, Christmas, & New Years.

Q: How & when will I receive the files?

A: You will receive a gallery link via email to an image hosting website. There, you will be able to download your images within 6 weeks of your wedding date.

Q: Do I get to select the images?

A: As a photographer of 10+ years , part of my job is selecting the most flattering photographs. I do not deliver repeats, out of focus, mid blink/talk, or overexposed images. I want you to have all the best images to remember your special day by.

Q: Can I have the unedited raw files?

A: No. This is not a proper representation of my brand, skills, or vision.

Q: Do you do video too?

A: I don't offer hybrid shooting yet , but I can direct you to some awesome Chicago videographers.

Will you photoshop my images to hide any unwanted spots, winkles, etc.?

If there are any distracting elements in your photos, I’ll take care of them. Minor edits will be made to all your images, but I believe our imperfections are what make us beautiful & unique.
