Motherhood is raw, beautiful, and ever-changing. From the first flutters of new life to the messy, magical everyday, your story is worth documenting—just as it is. My sessions are designed to feel like home: calm, connected, and filled with heart. Let’s create images that honor this season and everything it means to be a mama.
Because these moments deserve to be remembered.
We’ll start with a relaxed pre-session chat where I’ll get to know you, your season of motherhood, and the story you want to remember. Whether you're expecting your first or documenting the magic of life with littles, I’ll guide you through everything.
Within a few days, you’ll receive sneak peeks to swoon over, followed by your full gallery of hand-edited images that reflect the beauty and emotion of this season. From there, you can download, share, and order heirloom-quality prints.
No stiff poses. No forced smiles. Just a space where you can breathe, connect, and be present. I’ll gently guide you with prompts, but the focus is on capturing those honest, in-between moments. It’s calm, natural, and all about connection.

"I was exhausted, emotional, and unsure if I even wanted to be photographed. But Nikki made me feel so seen—so beautiful—in the middle of the chaos. These images are a gift I didn’t know I needed."

"Nikki captured the small moments I never want to forget—my son playing with my hair, the way my baby curled into my chest. It wasn’t just a photo session—it felt like pausing time."

"She didn’t ask us to pose or fake anything. She just let me be with my babies, and somehow turned all that real, everyday love into something so beautiful it made me cry."
