Nicole was truly the hero of our winter solstice wedding. From start to finish, she was everything we hoped for and more—professional, thoughtful, and an absolute force of calm and creativity in the middle of a snowy, slightly chaotic day.
Her photos were pure magic—she captured the light, love, and emotion of the day so beautifully. But beyond her incredible talent behind the lens, she went above and beyond in so many ways. When our bouquets were accidentally delivered to the wrong area of the venue, she literally ran across the property in snow and ice to retrieve them—without even being asked—so we could have them for our portraits. Who does that? A total legend.
She kept us organized and gently on task, making sure we got every single shot we wanted while still letting us enjoy the moment. She even managed to handle a few delicate family dynamics with grace and finesse—no small feat! And she was a baby whisperer—our one-year-old flower girl smiled in every photo thanks to her magical touch.
Even when our timeline got thrown off by the early sunset and weather, she stayed later than scheduled just to make sure we got all the shots we needed. She was calm, kind, creative, and completely indispensable.
If you’re looking for someone who can bring beauty, warmth, and a can-do attitude to your wedding day and deliver absolutely stunning photos—you’ve found her. We are beyond grateful.
Nicole was amazing and far exceeded expectations. She went above and beyond making sure we got the photos of our dreams. She was very receptive to what we wanted, paid attention to the little details that mattered and worked well with our videographer. She was worth every penny and I would not hesitate to hire her again. We highly recommend her!!
This review is 5 years too late and our praise can't be overstated. We hired Nicole for our elopement, and she went above and beyond to make our day perfect. Not only did she capture stunning photos, but she was also incredibly attentive to every detail. When my wife's eyelash glue failed, she didn’t hesitate to run out and get more, ensuring everything was just right. Her dedication and care were unmatched, and we would hire her again 100 times over. If you're looking for a photographer who is talented, professional, and genuinely invested in making your day special, Nicole is the one!
We discovered Nicole's work via social a few years ago and were so impressed that we knew we wanted to trust her with capturing our special day. Her incredible talent and artistic eye shines through our gallery with so many truly stunning images. What our gallery doesn't show you is all the things Nicole did for us that far exceeded our expectations. She wore many hats other than photographer to help us achieve exactly what we envisioned. She planned with some input from us the most memorable and epic adventure wedding day. Nicole helped us to figure out how to have an elopement-ish style and still involve my mom and our kids in very special ways. She treated as if we were family and never once did I feel like just a client of hers. Our lives have forever been impacted by her. Nicole is patient, kind, professional and beyond easy to work with. I would recommend her highly.
If I could rate Nicole out of ten stars, I'd give her eleven. I came across her images at my venue's (Hunter Mountain) marketing materials. There was a photo of the couple on the ski lift that's taken up to the ceremony location at the summit of the mountain, and there was another photo of the bridal party walking through a field of flowers; both took my breath away. Nature has always been a vital party of my and my now husband's relationship, and the way that she captured the beauty of both the people and nature in her photos was stunning.
Nicole did our engagement shoot at Kaaterskill Falls, and I didn't know what to expect. I have always loved taking photos but didn't feel so natural or comfortable on the other side of the lens. I figured "if we come away with at least 10 photos that I love then we're good". Nicole sent us a gallery of hundreds of pictures and I loved all of them. She framed us beautifully in nature, and told our story through her images. I felt seen, and beautiful. Her guidance in the shoot was supportive and simple. The natural stances and candidness of her style brought out our relationship in these photos. I was blown away, and I still am.
Two years later, Nicole did our wedding photos. It was a joy connecting with her again and having her at our wedding. She is a pro at this, and her balance of direction for larger groups and more candid moments for smaller groups and me and my husband made perfect sense and felt so natural (just like the photos). I loved how she went over to each of our tables and took their photos during dinner. The photos came back and allowed us to relive the best part we'll ever throw. The true candids caught of us in the moment display our genuine joy and emotion, and the shots from our sunset shoot and right after the ceremony are beautiful.
Nicole took such good care of us, was a true calm sense mixed in with all the wedding emotions!! I'm sad that we won't get married again, so we won't be able to work together again. Maybe a maternity shoot to come!! All I'm saying is, she's the best, and I'd do it all over again because of her approach to working with us and the fabulous photos she has. I feel so fortunate to have them forever.
Nicole did our Engagement shoot and I was blown away when we received our gallery. Each photo was absolutely stunning and we received so many compliments on them. The entire gallery really felt like a work of art. I am so grateful to have found her and I can't wait to see the results from when she shoots our wedding!!
Nicole photographed my legal wedding ceremony (during Covid) and then came all the way to HAWAII to shoot my big wedding celebration a year later! She is now about to shoot my maternity photo's and I couldn't be more excited. Nicole is so unbelievably professional, caring, genuine and funny! All of my photo's are absolutely stunning beyond words and I will treasure them forever. Nicole goes above and BEYOND for her clients to make sure captures the perfect and most beautiful moments in their lives, in the most flattering way. Nicole is just such a lovely and positive person and a skilled photographer and choosing her will be the best decision you ever make!!!
I stumbled upon Nicole's Instagram account when I got engaged and was looking for a photographer for our engagement shoot. Immediately I was drawn to her incredible photos and knew that I needed this vibe for my save the dates. Upon setting up a call to discuss further, I knew that Nicole was not only the right option for my engagement shoot but also my wedding. I booked her immediately! She was so helpful in finding us the perfect spots for our engagement shoot (despite the wind being a problem that day and not being able to cancel due to hair/makeup/etc). Nicole went above and beyond to go earlier and scope out different spots and what she thought would be the best option given the weather we were handed. My engagement photos came out amazing and I received so many compliments! For my wedding I knew I didn't have anything to worry about and that I was in the best of hands with Nicole! Again, I can't say this enough she LITERALLY GOES ABOVE AND BEYOND to make sure that she gets the perfect shot. She is a real, down to earth and genuine person, who also isn't scared to tell you what isn't working LOL but after all that's what we need right! To get the perfect shot - and that certainly is what Nicole delivers on! Of course my wedding photos came out amazing - I received a preview the next day of about a dozen photos and by the time I got back from my honeymoon I already had my full gallery, USB, a few sample prints and thank you card inserts for the gallery viewing. I honestly can't wait for the next time I need professional photos, because I know exactly where to go!
Believe me - you are in very good hands and look no further than Nicole to give you custom, romantic, bold, vibrant, amazing shots!
My wife and I got married in the White Mountains of New Hampshire in July 2022. We planned the wedding 2 months prior and had no idea where to begin, so we joined a Facebook group for Intimate Weddings and Elopements. We asked the group for photographer recommendations. As you would imagine, we received hundreds of suggestions. One that popped out to us as our favorite was Custom by Nicole Photography. We contacted her and she immediately responded and the dates were available. She was extremely responsive and very easy to communicate with. We setup a call and reviewed what we were looking for. She was very accommodating to our needs, as my wife has a lot of health problems, so she asked if Nicole would covid test on the day of the wedding and she had no problem doing so. During the wedding, Nicole was very professional and also personable/easy going. We felt super comfortable with her. She gave us a sneak peak of our wedding photos a few days after the wedding and we were absolutely floored at how amazing they were. We had a vision in mind of what we wanted for our wedding photos and she went above and beyond our expectations. A month later, she gave us the entire portfolio. We were so happy with how they came out. We can't thank her enough for capturing every single moment from our wedding. We would 100000% recommend Nicole as a wedding elopement photographer. She is incredible, not only as a photographer, but as a person. I hope we can hire her again in the future to do some more epic photos.
My husband and I got married in October 2021. We are so thrilled we hired Nicole to photograph our wedding. She was professional, kind, and extremely prepared. Her work is absolutely beautiful. She met with us at the venue a few months before the wedding so we could walk through the day and understand where we'd like certain pictures taken. That meeting actually helped us plan the whole day, she was ahead of our own planning! She was a wonderful presence on the wedding day. She kept the focus on us and captured some beautiful moments. We are so thankful we'll be able to have these gorgeous photos to remember a very special day. I highly recommend Nicole for any special event, she is very talented!
Nicole is amazing!!! She is so sweet and worked so hard to make sure she captured all the pictures we wanted on our wedding day. Her assistant also did a wonderful job. Our engagement and wedding pictures came out absolutely beautiful and she captures the scenery so nicely. We loved Nicole's style and she made us feel so comfortable. She shared a sneak peak with us the day following our wedding and had our pictures back to us quickly! We could not have asked for a better wedding photographer and cannot wait for our album. We will cherish these pictures for a lifetime! Thank you so much Nicole! I would highly recommend this vendor!
Nicole recently shot our wedding adventure photos and they were absolutely amazing. She was clearly very experienced and knew exactly how to pose us so that we'd look natural. Her compositions and editing were top notch. We've had so many people go out of their way to compliment the photos. I'm so thrilled we went with Nicole!
My husband and I are from Chicago but wanted to do a small ceremony with just our parents and siblings at Bear Mountain. Because of COVID we we relied on Bear Mountain Inn's preferred vender list. We could not have had better luck with finding Nicole. Our pictures are amazing. I would honestly travel to New York just to use Nicole again. She knew great locations to go for photos and when it was too foggy to take photos at the top of the mountain she was able to come up with alternate locations quickly. I honestly couldn't be happier with how our photos turned out and all our family and friends keep raving about how good we look. I 100% recommend Nicole.
Nicole is truly gifted. My fiance and I booked her for our engagement shoot at Minnewaska State Park after stumbling upon her work while searching for a creative photographer with a non-traditional style. Nicole delivered that and so much more. She made us feel very comfortable, helped with posing/ facial expressions, and the shoot flowed effortlessly. Nicole braved a downpour and still managed to get stunning photos of us after the rain had passed. We love every single photo we received and cannot wait to share them with guests on our wedding website and frame our absolute favorites to put on display in our home. Nicole will absolutely be our go to photographer for future special occasion shoots!
From the moment we met Nicole at our venue, we knew we had picked the perfect photographer. She figured out what time sunset would be on our wedding date as well as the sun’s expected positioning to advise us on the perfect ceremony start time would be for photos—something that never would have crossed our minds! The photos were absolutely stunning and we love that she captured a lot of candid shots over the course of the evening. Nicole really went the extra mile to capture the event from different angles—she really does the job of two, maybe three people! We are truly grateful that we chose Nicole to capture our wedding and will recommend her with flying colors to friends and family for future events!
At the risk of sounding like a broken record, I have to say that Nicole is amazing. She is honestly the best photographer that we could have asked for. She was incredibly helpful on everything and really went above and beyond to capture everything for our special day. I am so grateful for all of what she did and I couldnt be happier with how our photos turned out. I will definitely recommend Nicole to EVERYONE she is the best.
Nicole was beyond incredible!!! We could not have picked a better photographer. We absolutely LOVED working with her!!!! Nicole photographed our entire wedding ceremony and reception...as well as another smaller intimate ceremony and our rehearsal dinner which occurred on the prior night...as well as a last minute extra photo shoot that we added on, thanks to Nicole, so we could get photos in sunny weather the day before our wedding (which had a rainy forecast). So we spent A LOT of time with Nicole and we can really say with very strong confidence that she is totally and undeniably AMAZING. Not only did she take incredibly stunning photos of everything and is super talented, but also she was an absolute pleasure to work with. Nicole has a wonderful personality that kept us calm and reassured -- which is so important because she was such a big part of our entire wedding experience, which extended over the course of a whole weekend. Nicole was also super flexible and creative. She really went above and beyond -- she made sure we got all of the photos we wanted, found the most beautiful spots with the best light and best backgrounds, and facilitated our fun and enjoyment. Our ceremony was on top of a mountain and when the weather forecast wasn’t looking good (and Nicole was coming to photograph our rehearsal dinner the prior day), Nicole suggested we could take additional photos/time while the sun was shining -- and then she rearranged her personal schedule to make it work. We are sooo grateful to have those additional photos and wouldn’t have even thought of that idea without her. And her second photographer/shooter (Joel) was totally fabulous too!! We loved him as well! Nicole was very detail-oriented but also was fully aware of the big picture, whether it was relating to the actual images that she was photographing or relating to the people she was helping us coordinate and the events she was a part of. Having the balance of the big picture and details is the best combination. And all of these positive feelings/reviews aren’t just coming from my husband and me alone -- we actually got so many compliments during and after the wedding about Nicole! Our family and guests loved interacting with her and proactively came up to us to tell us how great they thought Nicole and Joel were. Nicole and Joel were capturing all of the amazing moments (but didn’t get in the way!), they were making sure not to miss a thing, they were nice to everyone, the photos look amazing so far, and people kept asking us how we found such a terrific photographer!! And on top of all of that, she was so easy to work with throughout the year leading up to our wedding. She was attentive, responsive, helpful, and had a positive attitude the whole time. We had a lot of unique requests and unique setting (e.g., our guests took a chairlift to the summit of a mountain for the ceremony), and she worked through it all with us. She made the whole process so enjoyable and stress-free. We are beyond grateful to have worked with Nicole (and Joel) for our wedding!!!! We can’t recommend Nicole enough!!!!
I simply cannot say enough great & incredible things about Nicole. My husband and I eloped in Maui, Hawaii this past March. The most important aspect of our elopement to me was for it to be stress free and to have the most AMAZING photos possible. Nicole gave me that. Nicole gave me the most beautiful pictures that I will cherish all of my life - I couldn't have even imagined them to turn out so perfect!
Additionally, Nicole went ABOVE. AND. BEYOND. She was my driver to our ceremony, she let me text her and run ideas by her, she took time out of her vacation with her family - just for us!! She even did a second day shoot for us (BEFORE SUNRISE, running on very little sleep) and climbed 2 miles up a huge mountain in Hawaii for us - JUST to get us some extra beautiful pictures with a different scenery. She was sweet, personable, and made our day even more perfect. I am so thankful I connected with Nicole through Instagram. If you are lucky enough to stumble upon her work, HIRE HER!!
There’s an element of gambling in the decision making process for wedding vendors. Will everything come out right? Will the vendor show up? Is the vendor able to think fast and handle last minute changes? Do you and the vendor mesh well with ideas and expectations?
In regards to Nicole Wagner of Custom by Nicole photography I will say she was and continues to be amazingly talented, professional, easy to work with and open to creative ideas (which by the way she blew us away in her execution.)
Both my husband and myself were astonished by the finished product of all the amazing pictures that were taken, the incredible moments we are able to relive and elements of the wedding we didn’t get to see or take in on the day.
We were seeking a photographer that was not traditional but could shoot the traditional shots our family wanted, but also capture more candid moments which we find more interesting and honest.
Nicole is truly an incredible photographer, an amazing artist who brought the most special, wonderful moments of our wedding day to life in photos! We are so lucky that she was a part of our big day and that we get to keep our memories forever! Nicole was always quick to respond and went above and beyond for us - for our engagement photos, I had always dreamed of my dog being a part of them but on our scheduled date (which had already had to be re-scheduled 3 times due to bad weather!), my dog was still recovering in the hospital and couldn't be there so Nicole found time on another day when she was in the City shooting another wedding, that we could meet her to snag a few special shots with her; I am forever grateful for how amazing Nicole was to do this for me/us.
Nicole thinks through all the details, is very thorough, thoughtful, and clearly passionate and dedicated. She is very communicative and this makes a huge difference leading up to and on the big day. Her final products are so beautiful and clearly show her skill and talent with light, color, and composition. Our wedding album is still in the works but our engagement album is gorgeous and we cannot wait for more to come!
Nicole is an absolutely AMAZING photographer! From the first time I contacted her up until we received our final wedding photos and fusion video, Nicole was easily accessible and answered any questions that I had immediately. Leading up to our engagement shoot, Nicole helped us choose a location and choose our clothing. Before our wedding, we spoke constantly and she even helped me when I needed opinions on other wedding details. On the day of our wedding, things could not have gone smoother! Nicole and her team captured the most beautiful pictures in a completely natural way. The candid photos, the portraits, and landscapes are all fabulous and I still can’t stop watching our fusion video! Everyone I know is still commenting on how amazing the pictures are. If you want a completely stress-free experience and truly amazing photos of your special day, then do yourself a huge favor and hire Nicole!!!
Nicole was the most incredible photographer. Our photos had hints of drama, incredible color, and depth. Nicole went above and beyond for us, and really honored my husband's military background through her process and work. She is friendly, supportive, and eased the tension of the day. On top of that, she is so organized and really contributed to the organization of the entire wedding day which we needed. She was a pleasure and everyone could not believe how her work surpassed anything they had seen before!! AMAZINGGGGGG
Nicole is an amazing photographer and so easy to work with! She was an absolute dream for both our engagement shoot and our wedding. I really love how she gently pushes you out of your comfort zone to get The Shot, and is willing to do and climb anything (truly) to make sure your photos are just as magical as you deserve.
I couldn't be happier with all the beautiful photos from our special day and I can't recommend her enough to couples, especially those who love nature and want it to be a big part of their wedding!
Custom by Nicole was phenomenal! Nicole is a dream. She takes amazing pictures and goes above and beyond. She was willing to travel for us to do our engagement photos. She combined her aesthetic with what we were looking for into wedding photos that are better than we could have imagined. I can't recommend her enough!!
Nicole is amazing - very talented and creative! My husband and I are so thankful we chose her for our elopement photos; they couldn't be more beautiful. She was great with giving us direction and making us feel comfortable. We got rain on the day of our marriage, and she was so helpful and courteous in arranging the next possible date to reschedule our outdoor photos. We definitely recommend Nicole!
I could not have chosen a better photographer than Nicole!! I specifically researched for a photographer that could produce wedding photos that would not look “cheesy” as I feel a lot of wedding photos turn out to be and Nicole’s website popped up for “non cheesy” wedding photography! Not only were my wedding photos not cheesy, but Nicole truly captured our wedding day so beautifully that people still rave about how amazing she was at the wedding! She was not in our faces flashing cameras at all throughout the night, which was great and was able to get every important detail and great candid shots of the wedding from start to finish! I would highly recommend Nicole for any special event!
I recommend Custom by Nicole Photography to everyone I know!!! My husband and I had a very tiny garden wedding in the Pocono's. Being that we are not from that area we never got a chance to meet Nicole prior to our wedding! (Just by the photograph's I had seen alone..I knew we were in great hands). When I met Nicole the day of our wedding I felt like I had known her my whole life! My husband and I both felt so comfortable and having our photo's taken felt unbelievably natural (and it shows)! She takes her time to find the very best lighting and back drops..She is a true artist! I can not wait until we have a little one so I can use Custom by Nicole Photography again! Thank you so much Nicole!!
Nicole has a passion and vision with her photography that is captured with every breathtaking picture she takes. She perfectly captured the essence of our wedding day and the love we share with one another. You are in good hands with Nicole... she is professional, organized and very experienced. She will leave no leaf unturned and you will be sure to get every picture that you can imagine plus so much more! I would use Nicole again and again and you really can not go wrong by booking her! One of a kind!
I am so happy to have chosen Nicole to capture one of the most important moments of our lives. Nicole shot both our engagement and wedding photos. Throughout the entire process she was so helpful, professional and very thorough. Her work also looks amazing, she has an eye for beautiful shots and capturing the special candid moments , no cheesy poses. Nicole is also very thoughtful in the time leading up to our wedding, we got a holiday card from her with our engagement picture, a cute keychain with another photo engagement picture and another beautiful card with an engagement photo wishing us a happy wedding month! The day of the wedding she was so focused and professional and hard working the entire time. She really is the best ever!
Nicole was a pleasure to work with and goes above and beyond expectations. From our engagement shoot to the time we received our wedding album, she was responsive, professional and produced terrific work!
Her photography skills and artistic visions result in some stunning photos. I’d recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer in the Hudson Valley or Pennsylvania.
I had a list of about 45 photographers from our area and I narrowed it down to one.... Nicole.
When we got engaged we knew we wanted a longer engagement to be able to take our time and enjoy the process. When I tell you I spent an entire year trying to find the most perfect photographer and I found her! I loved Nicole's attention to detail and how she seemed to have such a personal relationship with each of her brides and grooms.
My husband and I were so nervous because we are not models but the second Nicole gets behind her camera, I have no idea how she does it but every single picture is magical. She has captured every important moment in mine and my husbands lives. Our engagement, our wedding, our maternity shoot, and our son Dawson's newborn shoot. Nicole has become a friend <3 I will always recommend her to everyone I meet!!
I spent a lot of time researching vendors for our wedding because I wanted our memories to be perfect. I found Nicole on The Knot and as soon as I started looking through her portfolio, I knew I found our photographer. We meet in person and I described to her the theme I wanted for our wedding and what I was looking for. She contacted me shortly after with a great idea for our engagement photos. She even volunteered to help me decide on which dresses to wear for the engagement shoot, because she wanted it to come out perfect. I was so excited and I couldn't wait to work with her! All of our pictures came out absolutely beautiful! She had never been to our wedding venue before, so she did some research beforehand, which I found reassuring. As soon as she walked into the room the morning of our wedding, she asked me how I felt about the old historic cemetery across the street. I feel like she read my mind! She completely understood what I was looking for with out pictures. We took quite a few bridal party pictures as well as bride and groom portraits there along with at our historic venue. All of our wedding pictures are absolutely breathtaking! She left me speechless! I can't stop looking at them! I really could not be any happier with the way they all came out. She is so incredibly talented and gifted, and I am so glad she photographed our special day! We did some of the standard and typical wedding poses (which you do want), but Nicole also came up with some really creative ideas that made me feel like our wedding was different from every other wedding. And besides her talent, she is so personable and easy to get along with. She is always so quick to respond when I have reached out to her, and she's very fast with getting all the pictures done and to you. I love how she'll post a few teaser photos on social media, which gets you so excited to see the final result! Our bridal party and so many of our guests have told us how much they enjoyed her. We are constantly getting compliments on our photos as well. Right from the beginning, I had no doubt that Nicole would create beautiful memories for us! I could go on all day...I can't say enough great things about her! She puts in a lot of time to create these amazing memories for you, and you can tell how much she really cares and enjoys it. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer, you will certainly not be disappointed!
I first came across Nicole's work when she shot one of my friend's engagement photos. Their photos were amazing and I knew I needed to work with Nicole too! Nicole photographed my engagement photos and I thought those blew my mind... but then my husband and I chose her to photograph our wedding and those photos left me speechless. I have never had photos bring me to tears. Nicole managed to capture not only our love, but the little in-between moments a bride and groom share that many never even see. She captures the way we look at one another, the emotion, the laughs and the love throughout our entire wedding day. Every single photo was beyond beautiful and every time I look back at these photos now I feel like I am transported back in time to our wedding. The photos for our wedding were most important to me. I did a lot of research, a lot of searching and all of that stop the moment I saw Nicole's work. NO ONE compares to her! Not only does she love what she does, but it shows. It is incredible how she manages to see things in a way words can never describe. Every photo she takes tell a story and I am beyond grateful that I can relive those precious moments in my life all because of her. Choosing Nicole to be your photographer is the best decision you can make. Her photographs far surpassed any expectations I had and every guest, every friend, every family member told us "you can feel the love and happiness in every photo" and that to me speaks for how exceptional Nicole's work is!
Nicole is a talented, artistic, creative, professional, and inspiring photographer! Nicole invested time and effort to get to know my fiancé (now husband) and me, and captured all of the important and heartfelt details of our wedding. My husband and I were blown away by Nicole’s dedication to her craft, and absolutely love both our engagement and wedding pictures. All of the photographs are classic, beautiful, and, thankfully, not cheesy! Nicole always made sure that we felt comfortable, and was able to capture our genuine smiles and love for one another. We are so happy that we chose Nicole to be our photographer, and highly recommend her!
Nicole was THE BEST photographer ever. I can't thank her enough for the amazing pictures we now treasure! She really captured the day and night perfectly, and we look back on the pictures all the time and reminisce. Nicole was so professional, and knew exactly where we should be looking/facing/what we should do with our bouquets/what kind of expression we should have...etc etc, the list goes on and on! She made us feel like models, and the pictures definitely show! Nicole slipped into the background to capture every single thing throughout the night, I absolutely love all the candid pictures that she took. Those are my favorite pictures, and I'm so happy that I love every single picture she took. We would recommend Nicole to anyone, she was so responsive, prompt and amazing throughout the whole process - it really made everything so smooth and we're able to cherish all the moments because of her!
Thank you Nicole!!!!
Dear Hudson Valley brides - if you are looking for a photographer for your wedding there is only one place to look, Custom by Nicole. When looking for vendors, the photographer is the most important as when it is all said and done, pictures and memories are what you have to look back on your most special day. Nicole was, hands down, the best vendor selection we made. Not only do we have the most beautiful wedding picture, she takes so much time and care in all of the details making you feel so special! First we had amazing engagement photos and, from those, she made our wedding guest book with amazing composition and such high quality. It was beautiful. She continued to send us personalized cards throughout the year with various photos of us on them making us feel so special (plus it was great to keep on the fridge :) When it came time to schedule the day of events, she was a huge help! She advised on what she thought would work best but made sure to always listen to our wants and needs and make them happen. She also reminded us about all of the pictures we might want, but didn't think about (bc your head is filled with a million other things). When we got our photos, they were perfection. I felt like I was reliving the night. She captured the emotions and joy of the entire day and each photo was so artistic and magical. I had included a special provision for a USB in my contract so that my tech challenged family members could easily access the pics. She not only sent the USB, but it was custom in a special box and included 3 matted photos and a stand! It was amazing! We are currently making selections for our album and she sent us a link to view the beautiful bound album we will be receiving. I can't wait to see the finished album as I am sure it will be perfection too, as our entire experience with her is been just amazing!
I wish there were more stars to rate Nicole and her work. My sister-in-law originally found Nicole to photograph her wedding in 2011 and I was immediately in love. I knew when I got engaged that I could not have anyone else as my photographer, and she was even better than I had anticipated. From the engagement pics last October to our wedding this October Nicole has been wonderful and made us feel very comfortable in front of her camera. I am impressed by her professionalism and her ability to capture all of the greatest moments without being intrusive. She is the sweetest person and truly so talented. If I got married 100 more times I would choose her each and every time.
Nicole shot our engagement photos in October 2015, and then our wedding in June 2016. My husband and I are so happy and impressed with the results. Nicole was so easy to work with! I would highly recommend Nicole, she obviously loves what she does and takes great pride in the product she produces. Hire her, you will not be disappointed!!!
There are not enough words to describe how great Nicole's work truly is. Not only is she incredibly talented and passionate about what she does, but she is extremely thoughtful and really makes you and your day look and feel the absolute most special. My husband and I felt so comfortable in her hands from the very first day we met her at our engagement shoot, and by the time the wedding rolled around, she had formed such a special and genuine bond with us, we knew we had nothing to worry about. She's one of the most professional vendors I've ever met and a true friend I'm so lucky to have made thru the process. She will be your guide, your voice of reason, and nothing short of a best friend of a photographer every bride dreams of. I wanna get married over and over just so we can keep taking pictures!!!
Nicole is the most thoughtful and talented photographer in the world! She truly went above and beyond in every way, and her finished product from our engagement session and our wedding day was simply amazing. From day one, Nicole's passion for her work was clear. Perhaps the most impressive thing about Nicole was her ability to capture the most intimate moments without ever getting in the way. Nicole is extremely professional, and she truly cares about her clients and their stories. She made my husband and I feel so comfortable, and she made a genuine attempt to get to know our families as well. Wedding photos are likely the most important photos in your life. If you are lucky enjoy to have Nicole as your wedding photographer, you will have the most magical photos that will remind of your special day for the rest of your life. When I look at Nicole's photos of our wedding, I can't help but smile. Nicole is truly the best in the business, and I feel extremely confident recommending her for any event, including your wedding, which is one of the most special days in life. Thank you, Nicole! Casey and I will always be grateful!
My wife and I had Nicole shoot our wedding back in 7-17-10. I highly recommend her, her eye to catch moments is really something. We just celebrated out sixth year anniversary and I decided to pull out the wedding album and have a look through the photos. Every picture in the album is special, I sat there going through the photos and relived that day. I could feel the emotions in the faces of our guest, our parent's, and the pretty much the vibe of the environment. I'm not the type of guy who really gets emotional much and the wife will a test to that, these pictures made me tear up looking at them and to me that really says something and because of that I wanted to reach out to Nicole and tell her that even six years after these pictures were taken they carry more then just a image and I wouldn't change a thing about then. I can say to those looking wont be disappointed. She was very professional and stealthy, I don't remember seeing her much but yet have hundreds of quality pictures. My wife and I thank You Nicole
It DOES NOT get better than her! Book Her NOW for anything and everything! She is worth every single penny and then some!
I was so lucky to stumble upon Custom By Nicole’s website when I was searching for wedding photographers. From the moment I saw her work I HAD to have her at my wedding. I was obsessed with every picture that she took on my wedding day. Not only were all of the photos beyond amazing and gorgeous, Nicole and her assistant Jen were such a pleasure to work with. Being that I live in NY and she is based out of Penn. I didn’t in fact meet with her in person until the day of my wedding. Let me tell you that didn’t matter because we had numerous phone conversations and I felt like I had known her for years! After the first time I spoke with her on the phone I was immediately comfortable and confident in her professionalism and experience. She was so organized and on top of things that I don’t know what I would have done without her. I loved the fact that you can customize her packages and that you get a cd with all the photos she takes at the wedding… retouched! Every since I posted some of her pictures on my facebook page I have gotten so many compliments. People are in aw with how beautiful her work is. I can’t wait to get them printed. To be wedding photos are the most important part of the entire day. My husband and I couldn’t have been happier with her services and could not have imagined our special day with her. I highly recommend Custom by Nicole to anyone who is looking for a wedding photographer
Nicole was amazing. She was professional, easy to work with and quick. Her package is reasonalbly priced and I recieved the photo's in no time. I highly reccomend her.
I honestly cannot say enough about Nicole. Her work is impeccable! She captures every moment in a very artistic and non obstrusive way. Turn around time for photos was incredibly fast. Every single photo looks incredible. She is very creative and easy to work with. She also has a photo booth that can be set up at the reception. we did it and it was a huge hit. Everyone was in it taking photos. 2 strips of photos print - one as an extra keepsake for the guests and one for the bride and groom.
I recommend Custom by Nicole to everyone!
Wow! I cannot say enough about Nicole. She is fabulous!!! I met Nicole about 3 years ago and I knew the day I met her and saw her pictures that one day I would have her as my photographer for my wedding. If you are looking for someone who takes more than just the standard 'stand there and smile' pictures then Nicole is your go to photographer! She finds the detail in everything and she has such a creative eye with capturing the moment -- just laughing with your friends or crying with your mom to formal shots as well. All around I would recommend Nicole to anyone and everyone. She works with you to make sure you get the pictures you want -- shes there taking pictures of things that are going on all around you yet you are too busy to notice. Hands down she is the best photographer around.
Nicole was amazingly talented, creative, and extremely professional. She had so many great ideas for different shots and she was contantly taking photos. She captured every single moment and every single little detail of our day. Our photos look like they are straight out of a bridal magazine. We have been getting compliments from all of our guests about how great she is and how great the photos came out. Noone can capture your day like Nicole- she's simply the best!
