I wear a lot of hats — photographer, business owner, toddler mom, memory-maker, and professional chaos-catcher (you’ll see what I mean at your session).
photographer, CREATIVE & FOUNDER OF NK creative studios
When I’m not designing, I’m living a beautifully chaotic life filled with creativity, connection, and a whole lot of coffee. You’ll find me chasing sunsets with my photography clients, playing endless rounds of hide and seek with my toddler, or hyping up my husband as he works his magic in the kitchen (seriously, he’s the chef of the house). I’m also probably knee-deep in a DIY home project I swore I’d finish last month — while conveniently ignoring the one I started before that. Oops. It’s a bit messy, a bit loud, and always full of love — and honestly, I wouldn’t have it any other way.
I’m a dog mom to two chaotic, zoomie-prone pups and a book lover with an ever-growing TBR pile — if it’s romantasy, a fast-paced thriller, or a swoony romcom, I’m in. I scroll TikTok way past my bedtime, wander HomeSense like it’s a personality trait, and always have music playing because silence just feels weird to me. I’m the friend who will reply suspiciously quick (unless I got distracted mid-text — it happens to the best of us). I love a clean house... but somehow my own dishes never make it to the sink, and I'm about 2 loads behind on laundry at all times. We all have our flaws, right?
When I’m not behind the lens, I’m living a beautifully chaotic life filled with creativity, connection, and a whole lot of Diet Coke. You’ll find me chasing sunsets with my photography clients, snapping tiny newborn toes in my studio, or capturing all the messy, magical moments of family life — both for my clients and for my own wild little crew.
At home, you’ll usually catch me playing endless rounds of hide and seek with my toddler (who takes it very seriously), cheering on my husband while he works his magic in the kitchen (he’s 100% the chef of the house), or knee-deep in yet another DIY project I swore I’d finish last month — while casually ignoring the one I started before that. Oops. Life around here is a bit messy, a bit loud, and always full of love — and honestly, I wouldn’t have it any other way.
I’m also a dog mom to two chaotic, zoomie-prone pups and a hopeless book lover with an ever-growing TBR pile. If it’s romantasy, a fast-paced thriller, or a swoony romcom, I’m in. I scroll TikTok way past my bedtime, wander HomeSense like it’s a sport, and always have music playing — because silence just feels weird.
I’m the friend who will reply to your text suspiciously fast (unless I got distracted mid-reply — it happens to the best of us). I love a clean house... but somehow my own dishes never seem to make it to the sink, and I’m perpetually two loads behind on laundry. We all have our flaws, right?
At the end of the day, I’m just a mom with a camera and a passion for helping families freeze the moments that matter most.
Hello, I'm Nicole!
At NK Creative Studios, I specialize in capturing the real-life magic of families — from bump to baby to big kids and beyond. Whether we’re documenting a brand new newborn, your wild and wonderful crew, or a milestone moment, my goal is simple: to give you photos that feel like you. Messy, beautiful, and full of heart.
HELLO! I'M NICOLE
All the messy, loud, beautiful parts of my own life? They’re exactly what fuel the way I photograph. They remind me that connection matters way more than perfection, that personality beats a perfectly posed shot any day, and that the best photos are the ones that feel like you. That’s the energy I bring to every single session — chaos welcome.
I don’t just take pretty photos. I capture images that feel like you — rooted in real connection, filled with genuine moments, and created with care.
Whether it’s helping kids feel comfortable (it’s kind of my superpower), making even the most camera-shy parents relax, or knowing exactly when to step back and let the magic happen — I create a space where your family can be themselves.
Every moment I capture is intentional — from the big hugs to the quiet glances to the beautifully imperfect in-betweens. Because your family deserves photos that feel honest, joyful, and truly yours.
Working with me means zero stress, zero pressure, and no awkward posing. I’m here to make sure your kids feel comfortable, you feel relaxed, and everyone leaves having had way more fun than they expected. I know how to read the room, go with the flow, and capture all the little moments in between — the giggles, the snuggles, the wild energy, the quiet love.
Think of me as part photographer, part chaos coordinator, part hype girl. Whether we’re in the studio, out at sunset, or in the middle of your living room, I know how to keep things fun, relaxed, and real — so you can show up exactly as you are.
