Honest. Earthy. Full of heart.
Newcastle family photographer capturing the wild, warm, and real moments of your story
This is for the barefoot afternoons, the baby belly laughs, the way your kid looks at you when they think no one’s watching, the glance between you and your partner amongst the chaos of it all.
It’s for the moments that feel ordinary now, but won’t always.
For families who want more than a nice photo to hang on the wall...
No stiff smiles. No matching outfits from a catalogue.
This one’s for the barefoot explorers, the snack-bribed toddlers, and the kind of love that shows up in everyday chaos.
Let’s tell the story of your now — muddy knees, belly laughs, and all.
Before the night feeds and the wrinkly baby toes, there’s this: the waiting.
Your story begins long before baby arrives.
Let’s honour the transformation, the quiet strength, the glow — yes, even if it’s just sweat and snacks!
Tiny fingers. Heavy eyelids. The hush of a home adjusting to its newest heartbeat.
Newborn days are a blur of feeding, soothing, and wondering if you’re doing it “right.”
These aren’t just baby photos—they’re proof of the love that held it all together.
Let’s skip the stiff smiles and chase what’s real...
I’m Nic—and I’m here to photograph your family’s wild, tender, unrepeatable magic.
The sandy toes. The tangled hair. The way your little one reaches for your hand without thinking.
These aren’t just moments, they’re the stories you’ll carry long after the days blur.
Let’s bottle them up, exactly as they are.
Ready to slow time for just a moment?
Let’s capture your now—exactly as it is. No stress. No pressure.
Just the beauty that already lives in your every day.

Love notes from my clients…

We are not the kind of people who love having our photo taken so felt a bit apprehensive, particularly when I was pregnant and not necessarily feeling my best! Any worries disappeared the minute Nicole started working - she was so encouraging and gave us helpful directions which made everything way less awkward"

"“I was anxious having never had professional photos taken before, I thought we would look awkward and uncomfortable. However, as soon as we started the session you made us feel very comfortable reminding us to act just how we would normally, resulting in the most beautiful photos!”

"For our newborn shoot you could absolutely tell that Nicole has a background as an early childhood teacher, she was so sweet and confident with our little baby. I also didn't want super posed unnatural photos, and Nicole captured such natural moments that truly feel like a snapshot of the time - we will cherish these for years to come!

“I have already recommended Nicole to a close friend and she had her maternity shoot a couple of weeks ago! I told her how wonderful we found the experience and how highly we recommended Nicole - she is someone you can trust with your precious memories. But honestly I didn't need to say much at all as the pictures speak for themselves. The hardest part is picking which ones to print and frame as they are all so perfect.

"My boys are both VERY energetic and most times find it hard to concentrate so I worried that anyone that took photos of our family would judge us resulting in my family not having great experience.. this never happened and we all had such a great time!”

“My biggest worry was that Archie would not want photos done and would get upset, and in the beginning he didn’t really seem keen, but you were so fantastic giving him the time he needed to get used to the camera so we could capture his little personality”
