Welcome!

Your event photographs should feel like your real life as it unfolds. I approach weddings and elopements with this kind of documentary mindset, blending observation with gentle guidance so the moments that matter most can breathe and exist naturally.

Meet Nikki

Hi, I’m Nikki, the photographer behind Stories by Nikki. My work is rooted in storytelling and photojournalism: documenting life + love as it unfolds and romanticizing the moments we’re living through. I blend observation with gentle guidance so you can stay present while I notice the connection, light, and in-between moments that make your story yours. My goal is simple: photographs that feel honest, emotional, and timeless.

  • Nikki is the photographer to use for EVERYTHING! Nikki will hype you up and give you the confidence to take amazing and beautiful photos!

    KELLY MEEK

  • Nikki is more than a photographer but an artist. You can just feel the love and joy in all our photos. It didn’t feel posed or forced. It was just pure magic! When she did have to guide us for a few shots, she was gentle, caring and made sure we felt comfortable.

  • Nikki was a dream to work with! Being in front of a camera is not my forte but she made it so easy & my pictures came back quick and GORGEOUS!! Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to get some beautiful pictures taken!

    Erin Cabell

  • Nikki made me feel incredibly comfortable right away and the direction was easy to follow. Her communication was stellar before, during, and after the pictures. And her turnaround times were great too! It’s easy to see Nikki loves what she does and cares about the client and the story behind the shoot.
