Hi I’m Nicki,
I have been a professional photographer for over 17 years. Originally a Southern lassie, we relocated to bonnie Scotland’s North East in 2022.
Family and friends mean the world to me. I’m a real people person and I’m happiest when I’m surrounded by those I love, or even just people in love (weddings really do that to you!). I’m positive, full of energy, and so grateful to now live close to the Cairngorms, just outside Banchory.
I met my “happily ever after” guy, Steve, back in 2001, and we finally tied the knot in 2013 (it took him ages to propose!). Together, we’re the proud parents of our three gorgeous boys and we also share our home with three crazy chihuahuas who keep us laughing every single day.
I love horse riding and hiking up local hills, nothing too big though (that applies to horses and hills!) I love cold water dipping or dooking as it's known here, and exploring new places in our old camper van. At home I love to play my much loved acoustic guitar. I speak French and Spanish and a smidge of Italian too!
On your big day I am relaxed & friendly - we'll have lots of fun together and I will capture your wedding as it happens; blending in with your guests and putting you and all your loved ones at ease. My work is real and honest. It will truly reflect your day and how you felt. Your photos will be full of smiles, laughter and plenty of natural moments and they will bring back all the emotions of the day. Photography isn't just a visual art, to me it's all about how the images make you feel that means the most.
See my Reviews page to read what some of my lovely couples think about me and how they felt about the memories I created for them.
