family and Newborn photographer based in Watertown, Ny.
Hey, I’m Nicole! I understand how important and stressful “picture day” can be. My husband, Chris, and I have five children. I know your desires and stresses around getting family portraits done because I have those same desires and stresses. Every session, I want to create space for your family to relax and love on each other. Every family is uniquely in love, and the most extraordinary thing is love shared within each family…even yours! My sessions are laidback and fun letting kids be kids. Our time together is an experience rather than the dreaded “picture day”. I will guide you through the session, but I leave plenty of space for your family to make the session and images your own. The perfect pictures are the ones that are a little messy. I want to make you and your family comfortable to be authentically you, and provide you with images that you will cherish for a lifetime.
The Session
What comes with your session?
The session will be an experience that is enjoyable and laid back, something the whole family enjoys. My number one goal is to make sure everyone is comfortable and relaxed so we can get authentic images of your family connecting and bonding. The session will provide time for you and your family to love on one another while I capture those connections. Sessions are typically held outdoors, but in home family sessions are available, too. All lifestyle newborn sessions are done in the comfort of your own home, and fresh 48s are held in your birth space. Every session is all inclusive, meaning you will receive an online gallery of at least 40 hi res images that can easily be shared with family and friends.

Testimonies
“Nicole photographed a maternity and newborn session for our family. My toddler does not play ball, but Nicole was so patient with him. Having our newborn session in-home was so comfortable and convenient, and having photographs of our first home together as a family of four is absolutely priceless. We couldn’t be happier. If you want relaxed, natural photos with a fun and friendly photographer, Nicole is your girl!

“Nicole did our family pictures twice while we lived in Hawaii and she knocked it out of the park both times. She did such an amazing job capturing our kids’ individual personalities. Several of her photos hang in our home and represent my most favorite memories!”
“When we moved to NY, I was convinced I wanted snow photos! Seeing all the gorgeous fall photos, I feared I’d made a terrible mistake waiting for the winter. However, I met Nicole through SLAM Fort Drum and as a fellow mom of lots of kids, immediately felt like she was a kindred spirit. Her photography was beautiful and I knew she was the one to capture my crazy family. Nicole is phenomenal and truly gave us that NY winter snow photo experience I wanted. Even my husband said “that was so much fun” when we went back to look at all the great shots Nicole captured in our gallery. I can’t thank her enough for capturing our family ❤️ would definitely recommend!”
“Nicole is so personable and bubbly. She was amazing with my antsy toddlers, kept us on time, and kept the anticipation up for my first homecoming experience. Her photos touch the heart and her editing style is so timeless. Thank you, Nicole, for capturing our homecoming!”
