Hey There,


I'm Nicola, a photographer based in Auckland, but i love to travel! I have documented weddings New Zealand wide, including Central Otago in the South Island, The Bay of Islands, Coromandel, Hawkes Bay and the Bay of Plenty.

I have a relaxed approach to photography and love to capture those raw, authentic moments and emotions, my style is more documentary, with gentle guidance where necessary, less posed, but capturing those natural moments as they unfold.

I'm here to tell your story through candid, relaxed, and timeless photographs. Whether it's one of the most important days of your life or just hanging out in your backyard! I'll be there to make your kids laugh, to adjust your veil, and to capture those in-between moments that may have gone unnoticed.

For more of an idea of my style, check out my latest work here, or find me on instagram and facebook.

Kind Words


From the moment I first talked with Nicola I knew she had to be our Wedding Photographer! She was so easy going and had so much knowledge and of course I loved the look of her images. Nicola was so incredible on our wedding day and everything felt so natural and candid. When we received our images we were just amazed at how many beautiful photos there were! Thank you so much Nicola for creating such beautiful memories for Josh, Axel and I.

Kerryn and Josh


We would recommend Nicola to anyone who asked! James is not so keen on photos but Nicola made us both feel so at ease the entire day and super comfortable in front of the lens! All of our family, friends and vendors commented on how incredible she was at capturing all the good moments without being in the way of all the good moments. We love our photos so much and feel so lucky we got to have Nicola capture our special day!

Emma and James


Couldn't recommend Nicola highly enough. Nicola travelled to Kumeu for our November 2023 wedding. We just want to thank her so much for not only capturing so much of our special day, but she gave us a huge sneak peek of the wedding within a few days, which was so exciting. So many images of us getting ready, the venue, tables and decorations. Always so obliging and happy to accomodate us. Especially by taking extra time photographing my husbands 93 year old Grandad. So special as a month later, he sadly passed away. We couldn't be happier or more grateful. Would 100% recommend Nicola for any special event.

The photos show everything and more. I cannot express enough how happy we are with our photos! The communication and assistance Nicola provided us right up to our wedding day was faultless! On the day, Nicola was so calm and would just help us get a feel for what to do. We are not people that like/or get photographed often so it definitely outside our comfort zone but she made us feel extremely comfortable and none of the photos felt forced. We have had hundreds of comments on how perfect our photos are, I couldn't agree more (slightly obsessed with them all!!!) I cannot stop looking at them.

“Nicola over delivered! We were absolutely flawed by the amount of lovely candid moments that she captured. Moments not just of us and our wedding party but also of our guests. Looking through Nicolas album of images from our day, felt like we’re right back there, reliving it! As well as producing wonderful work, Nicola was a great communicator and an absolute joy to work with. We would recommend Nicola to anyone!"

Samantha and Wynton


I cannot recommend Nicola enough, she is AMAZING! We were so happy with our wedding photos, she captured our day just beautifully. She made our day so special and we can't thank her enough for this.

Bailee and Liam


Nicola was our wedding photographer in January 2022. She shot our day extremely well and listened to all of our requests. We had received a large selection of preview images within 24 hours and they were all outstanding. We can't wait to see more! Highly recommend.

Anna and Kieran


Nicola was our wedding photographer, February 2022 she came from Auckland to Hawkes bay to capture one of the most important days of our lives and we are so so grateful. The photos she has shared so far are absolutely stunning! She made it so comfortable when taking the photos, really natural and not forced to posed, she was open to our ideas for photos and captured ones that we did not think of getting! I would 10000% recommend Nicola for any photo shoot, we had an engagement one with Nicola first and that made us all comfortable so we knew Nicola before our wedding, she is so lovely we are very thankful.

Sophie and Mitchell

Nicola did our maternity and newborn shoot, she is so lovely and efficient. She captured our special moments so perfectly! We had our photos back with in a couple days and loved each and everyone of them. We will be back for more family shoots in the near future.

Alex Smith


We had some amazing photos done by Nicola. She really listened to what we were after and we are beyond happy with them. Now the hard part is deciding which ones to frame for the wall! Thanks again Nicola!
