Detroit photographer · Hugs optional

Come as you are.
I’ll meet you at half past four.

Take a look around

Weddings, couples, the city I love, and the pop-ups worth circling the block for. I show up like a friend who happened to bring a camera.

A few favorites

Photos that hug you back.

Hi, I’m Nicole

Why half past four?

It’s the hour the light turns soft and gold, the city slows down, and people forget to pose. That’s why the little clock by my name is always stopped at 4:30.

Weddings, couples, a Saturday pop-up, a quiet corner of Corktown: I keep it relaxed and unscripted. Don’t know what to do with your hands? Nobody does. I’ll talk you through it.

And if you found your way here and something clicked, I have a feeling we’ll get along just fine.

With love, Nicole

  • I cry at weddings. I pack tissues for both of us.
  • Always packing snacks, bobby pins, and a lint roller.
  • American or Lafayette? Ask me in person.

Say hello

Pull up a chair,
tell me everything.

Start with the basics, then tell me a little about you. I read every message myself.

The fun part: your vibe

If you like my work, we probably already see things the same way. These just help me get to know you a little before we meet. All optional, no wrong answers.
