families
Your family doesn’t need to be perfectly posed to be perfectly beautiful. My sessions are built around connection—snuggles, laughter, movement, and all the little in-between moments that make your crew unique. Whether you're documenting a new season or just want to freeze time for a moment, we’ll create images that feel like home.
The days are wild, the love is real—and that’s what we’ll capture.

We’ll chat about your vision, location ideas, and what makes your family you. I’ll send over a prep guide with styling tips and suggestions to keep things stress-free (even with toddlers involved!). You’ll show up feeling ready, not rushed.
You’ll get a sneak peek to swoon over within a few days, followed by a full gallery of hand-edited images that reflect the love, joy, and chaos of your crew. Your memories will be ready to download, share, and turn into keepsakes you’ll treasure forever.
It’s all about connection, not perfection. We’ll play, explore, snuggle, and follow your family’s natural rhythm. I’ll guide you with easy prompts and keep things fun and relaxed—because the best photos happen when you're simply being together.

"I was worried about getting one good photo with our wild kids, but Nikki captured so much more than that. The laughter, the cuddles, the realness—it all shines through. These images feel like our family in motion, and I’ll treasure them forever."

"Nikki made what usually feels stressful so easy and fun. She connected with my kids immediately, gave us space to just be, and the result? A gallery full of moments that feel like memories, not just photos."
