Nicki Metcalf Photography

Nicki did a great job with our engagement and wedding photos. Her sweet and energetic personality helped us to feel comfortable with taking photos during our engagement shoot and eased our nerves on our wedding day. She made good use of the scenery and posed us in ways that looked authentic and natural. On our wedding day she did a great job at efficiently getting all of the bridal and family photos done and kept everyone right on schedule. Would definitely recommend her as a photographer!

I have had the pleasure of admiring Nicki’s photography for many years and you know what I LOVED about her photos? She captured people… the glint in their eyes, the curves of their smiles, their hidden beauty sometimes unseen by the rest of the world. Sure, many photographers can snap your posed and group shots, but Nicki captures beauty, captures that perfect moment in time, captures what is sometimes missed in the busyness of the day. It’s like she has the ability to slow time down to an exact moment and capture what no one else is able to see. Then she shares her gift with the world, and it is… gorgeous, stunning, and breathtaking! She made my wedding day easy and effortless. We had a small hiccup in getting her items for the flatlay (our mistake, not hers) and she rolled with it, still got pictures that were needed and I was the oblivious bride, able to enjoy the day, detail and stress free! We even had the awkward separated family photos but she was kind and sensitive to the needs of all the family members. Communication is easy, turnaround is fast and website for photos is user-friendly. Highly recommend this investment into your big day!

Nicki was very energetic and fun to work with! She was so patient and gracious with wedding guests during pictures. I would highly recommend Nicki as she did an amazing job and the pictures turned out great!

Nicki was AMAZING and so were all of her photos of our wedding. We ended up booking her 2 weeks out from our wedding because our previously booked photographer went AWOL. I wished we had found her from the very beginning. I really appreciated her organization, especially compared to the first photographer, and she worked with us a bit on pricing. She even got our photos to us way earlier than she said she would, which was awesome. Also, don't be fooled by her size, she knows how to get a big rowdy group together in a flash and knows how to put her foot down when it's necessary! Amazing, all around.

Nicki was a dream to work with. From our first glance at her online portfolio, we were captivated by her documentary style and the way she captured the energy of each shot, both in black and white and in color. We connected quickly and easily with Nicki first over a FaceTime call, and then by email and text. She was super sweet, extremely responsive, asked great questions and was flexible and compassionate when we the weather forced us to change our venue at the 11th hour to a place none of us had been before. She didn’t miss a beat and scoped out a new first look spot and set up the space for our family portraits. We are super pleased with our engagement photos where she guided us in posing as well as captured our natural style, and shot a few fun ones where we were dancing. She also shot our rehearsal dinner and turned the photos around quickly! We are so thrilled with those and know that if they’re an indication of the wedding pics, we are going to love them!! We cannot wait to see the full online gallery, and are so excited for her to create our bound wedding album. Thank you, Nicki!!

My husband and I are so very lucky to have found Nicki to photograph our engagement shoot and wedding. We were nervous about wedding photos, because we don't particularly like getting our pictures taken, and don't find ourselves to be very photogenic! Therefore, feeling comfortable and relaxed with a photographer was extremely important to us. Before booking Nicki, we met her for dinner and instantly felt connected. Besides being extremely talented, she's one of the kindest people we've met! Nicki was great to work with during our engagement pictures (which I highly suggest doing with Nicki before the wedding so you both can get used to each other's styles beforehand). She made us feel comfortable and relaxed, and captured some of our favorite pictures of us, and was able to turn around the pictures quickly! On the day of our wedding, Nicki and her husband Dre were amazing. Our wedding party even commented on how fun they were to work with. Nicki and Dre were professional, efficient, and comforting. Nicki was able to turn the pictures around quickly, and we couldn't be happier with the results. They are stunning, and such a great way to capture the memories of our special day. Nicki's photography style, which I'd describe as romantic, soft, and "vintagey" were what originally drew me to her. Our pictures definitely lived up to her beautiful work!
