Behind the Lens
MEET NIKKI, Your NE Ohio WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER
about your photographer
I'm nikki
What do you get when you blend a magazine graphic designer with a decade of experience in the elevated event and hospitality industry? OK, so fair enough if your first guess wasn’t “a photographer.” But that’s where my journey led! I’ve always adored art and design, and after growing up in a cozy town that feels like the real-life version of Stars Hollow, I’ve always had a passion for serving others—for being the reason a stranger smiles.
As I watched newlyweds sway together in the candlelit Stan Hywet, where I worked to help them bring their unique wedding day visions to life, my fingers itched to capture these moments for them. To freeze them in time so they could be treasured for generations.

I'm a Wife and Mom to these amazing humans. Time goes so quickly. I will literally turn around and I feel a year has gone by and my babies are no longer babies. It is my desire to preserve these precious memories why I value photography so much. One of my favorite things about our home is decorating it with beautiful artwork of our family. I love being surrounded by my favorite life moments with beautiful images. It is like a daily reminder of how blessed we are with loved ones that bring us so much joy. I love how each image makes me feel and also matches my style.
My favorite part of photography is how it sparks all five senses. When you look at photos filled with emotion you can hear the laughter and joy. If there was a certain perfume or signature cologne someone wore it's as if you can smell it come through the paper. You can taste the family secret recipe with family gatherings. Or, you can feel the hugs and cuddles in the moment. This is why I feel it is so important to get the raw, authentic moments filled with emotion in my photos. There is a deep connection with the candid moments that makes pictures so valuable.
MY WHY FOR EVERYTHING I DO

NIKKI C.
“IT’S MORE THAN JUST A JOB FOR HER. SHE PUTS HER WHOLE HEART INTO YOUR DAY!”
“I was honestly surprised that the first meeting with her was a sit-down in-person meeting. At first, I wonderedwhy we couldn't just talk on the phone, but now, I completely understand why! She really takes the time toget to know you. She sat with us forever during our first meeting and then did follow-up calls and emails withus. And let me tell you, from looking at the pictures, you can definitely tell!”
