Hi, I’m Nicole.
Capturing Moments, Creating Memories That Last a Lifetime.
Melbourne Maternity, Newborn, Family, and Personal Branding Photographer
My photographic style is playful, candid, real, and lively.
Let’s create something beautiful together!
Hi, I’m Nicole — a Melbourne-based photographer originally from California, specialising in maternity, newborn, family, and personal branding photography.
My approach is shaped by an unconventional path: primary school teacher, girls’ basketball coach, creative tech startups in San Francisco, professional cyclist racing across Australia and New Zealand. What that background gave me is the ability to read people, build trust quickly, and find the real moment hiding inside the posed one.
As a mother of three girls, I know firsthand how fast this season passes. That’s what drives me — not just to take beautiful photographs, but to give your family something you’ll feel deeply, today and thirty years from now.
I believe your family’s privacy matters. The images I create belong to you. I will never share your photos publicly without your explicit permission — because these moments are yours to keep, not mine to broadcast.
Every session is thoughtfully guided, whether we’re in your home or out in nature. I’ll handle the chaos (toddlers included), and I promise beauty will emerge from it. My clients often tell me they forgot I was even there — and that’s exactly the point.
If you’re looking for a photographer who will make you feel at ease, capture your family as they truly are, and hand you images that make you cry happy tears — I’d love to work with you.
Maternity/Newborn
There is nothing quite like the first days with a new baby — the smallness, the stillness, the way everything slows down. I come to you, in your home, and document this fleeting time with gentleness and care. No studio, no stress — just your family, your space, and images you will treasure forever.
Maternity sessions are available both in-home and on location across Melbourne, capturing the beauty and anticipation of this extraordinary season.
Family
Families are messy, loud, tender, and wonderful — and that’s exactly what I want to capture. Not stiff poses and forced smiles, but the way your kids actually laugh, the way you actually hold each other, the realness of who you are right now in this season of life.
Sessions are available in your home or at locations across Melbourne that feel meaningful to you.
Personal Branding
You’ve built something worth showing up for. Whether you’re a founder, a creative, a coach, or simply a woman who’s ready to be seen — I’ll create portraits that feel genuinely like you. Not corporate. Not stiff. Just confident, warm, and real.
Personal branding sessions are available on location across Melbourne.
