Nicki blended in as if she was a guest too

Nicki took the photos at our wedding in 2015 and we couldn’t have been happier with the results. We wanted very natural pictures to capture the day and details rather than lots of posed photos and that’s exactly what we got. Nicki blended in as if she was a guest too and is great fun to be around (I’ve met her at a couple of weddings) and she really puts you at ease. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Nicki to anyone looking for a great photographer.

Nicki is literally the best!

Nicki is literally the best! At our friends wedding, my now husband turned to me and said, "Babe, I've met the best photographer and we need to book her for our wedding!" And he wasn't wrong! After chatting with her for 5 mins I knew we had to book her! The photos turned out amazing and Nicki would have been booked for all of our friends weddings if she hadn't moved! Scotland, you've gained a real talent. We love you Nicki xxx

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

I actually remember them all I think! And I’ve shot well over 300 now.

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Relaxed. Romantic. Fun. Candid. Reportage.

What about your business are you most proud of?

That I’ve never missed a wedding due to illness in over 15 years of business!

What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Plan it just how you want your wedding day to go but don’t sweat the little stuff.

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

So many! I love all the personal touches that make every wedding day unique to each couple.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

On the day I capture as much as I can naturally so you don’t even know I’m there. At smaller weddings I’m friendly and chatty so can happily mix in with your guests to put not just you at ease but also all your friends and family. There’s no process as such. Every day is different and I’m very much led by how each couple wants their day to go.

What is the No.1 photo that you think every couple should take?

Don’t worry. I’ll be taking the pics 🤣🤣😜

What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?

I don’t really get requests. Most of my couples just want their actual wedding day captured and not do anything too stylised or whacky!

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Wellies and umbrellas!

Describe how you got into photography.

Pets and landscapes. Then babies and families. Then said no to a friends wedding. But she managed to persuade me and I loved it and the rest is history!
