The loud laughter. Windblown hair. Happy tears. The chaos. The stillness. The moments you didn’t even realize mattered until they became memories. I’m here to preserve your story honestly, emotionally, and intentionally — so years from now, you don’t just remember how it looked… you remember exactly how it felt. Somewhere between raising four girls, chasing sunsets, blasting Taylor Swift in the car, and realizing just how quickly life changes, Salt + Heart was born.

Photography became more than beautiful photos to me. It became a way to freeze feeling. The kind you can’t recreate once the moment passes. The way your daughter reaches for your hand without thinking. The tears your partner tries to hide during your vows. The chaos and beauty of motherhood. The feeling of standing surrounded by everyone you love most knowing life will never look exactly like this again.


I'm Nikki, your favorite third wheel!

MORE THAN JUST YOUR WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER.

MY APPROACH

WHEN I’M NOT HOLDING A CAMERA…

WHAT MATTERS HERE

YOUR STORY DESERVES TO FEEL ALIVE YEARS FROM NOW.

I specialize in Florida weddings, engagements, family, maternity, and motherhood photography — documenting every season of your story with a mix of honest emotion, intentional storytelling, and editorial artistry. From luxury wedding weekends and Disney weddings to beach sessions at sunset and the beautifully chaotic seasons of motherhood, my goal is always the same: creating images that feel like you. The in-between moments matter just as much as the big ones to me.

The way your partner looks at you when you aren’t paying attention. Your kids belly laughing in the sand. The nerves before walking down the aisle. The quiet moments that happen naturally when everyone forgets the camera is there. Those are the photographs that become part of your legacy. When you choose Salt + Heart, you’re not just hiring someone to show up with a camera. You’re choosing someone to preserve your story through every season of life.

I’ll guide you when you need it and step back when the moment deserves space. My sessions are built around movement, connection, emotion, and creating an experience where you can fully be yourselves. No stiff posing. No awkward “what do I do with my hands” energy.

Just genuine connection with direction that feels natural and effortless. Whether I’m helping build your wedding timeline, fixing your veil in hurricane-force Florida wind, calming nerves before your ceremony, or getting your toddler to belly laugh during family photos — I’m fully invested in creating an experience that feels easy, exciting, and meaningful from beginning to end.

I want your photos to feel timeless, but more importantly, I want them to feel alive.

I’m probably:

  • somewhere near the ocean
  • diving whenever I get the chance
  • crying over how fast my girls are growing up
  • listening to Taylor Swift entirely too loud
  • romanticizing Florida sunsets
  • reading a dark romance book
  • planning my next Disney trip
  • or editing your gallery at 1am while reliving every emotional moment all over again

I believe life deserves to be documented honestly — the loud moments, the quiet ones, and everything in between.
Connection over perfection.
Emotion over trends.
Moments over poses.
I believe your photographs should feel like your life, not a performance of it.
Salt + Heart is a safe space for every kind of love, every kind of family, and every story deserving to be remembered exactly as it is.
My goal is never just to give you beautiful images.
It’s to give you something that instantly transports you back to a feeling years from now.
Whether you’re planning a Florida wedding, documenting a growing family, celebrating motherhood, or simply wanting to freeze this season before it changes — I’d be honored to tell your story.
