Based in Alma, AR, Nikole Wells Photography happily services weddings throughout Arkansas and Eastern Oklahoma. This talented wedding photographer happily caters to her clients' preferences, and treats every person in front of her camera as a timeless work of art. From your engagement session to your grand exit, you can rely on her to document your moments of joy.
As your Wedding Photographer, I will create a timeline of events for the day with you and help coordinate the day. This timeline is very helpful when scheduling hair/makeup, letting family members know when to be ready for formals. My clients receive all of the images from their wedding edited in color and in black and white. Your images come on a beautiful customized wooden flash with your names engraved on it and the flash is encased in a small wooden box. This makes for a beautiful keepsake to use to store your images. Wedding packages include a second shooter during ceremony. Wedding packages include an engagement or bridal session on my property near Alma, AR.
Wedding Packages:
Full Day $2000 .... Up to 10 Hours ~ This perfect package allows time for fun pre-ceremony shots, detail shots, formals, ceremony and more time at reception.
Half Day $1500 ... Up to 5 Hours ~ This smaller package allows time for ceremony, formals and a little time at reception.
These quotes are for locations within 100 miles of Alma, AR. I only travel within 100 miles of Alma, AR.
There is no charge for a phone consultation and no obligation to book. You are welcome to contact me to set up a time so we can visit about your big day!

I cannot say enough amazing things about our wedding photographer! From the moment we first connected, she was kind, approachable, and incredibly easy to work with. She immediately...
made us feel comfortable and supported through the entire process not just as a photographer, but almost like an extra coordinator and friend by our side.
Her talent is truly unmatched. She captured every special moment so beautifully the big, emotional parts of the day, the candid in between memories, and all the little details that we never want to forget. She helped guide the timeline, offered suggestions, and ensured everything flowed smoothly so we could actually enjoy our day. She was so flexible and understanding, adjusting to last-minute changes without hesitation and always keeping a calm, positive energy.
On top of her professionalism and talent, her pricing is extremely reasonable, especially for the outstanding quality of her work. You can genuinely feel that she cares about her couples and pours her heart into what she does. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. She went above and beyond in every way, and I’m so grateful we chose her to capture one of the most important days of our lives. If you’re looking for the best photographer in all of Northwest Arkansas, Nikole Wells is the one to choose!

Nikole was an absolute rockstar for our wedding! She is so easy and enjoyable to work with!
We could not be more pleased with the quality and quantity of photos from our wedding ...
day. Nikole's portfolio is filled with beautiful outdoor photographs, and we hired her because we loved the way she captures natural light and color. She captured so much beauty, joy, and fun in our photos -- looking back on them feels like we can re-live the day.
We also did a couples photo session at Nikole's property, and those are our absolute favorite non-formal photos by a long shot (after having other professional photos taken). This was an added bonus to our wedding package.
All around, we would rate Nikole 12/10 if possible!

Nikole is AMAZING! She is funny, kind, affordable, and such a great photographer. Our wedding photos are perfect. She edited them in a timely manner. I am so glad that I found her....
We did our engagement photos on her property in Alma and it was beautiful. If I had to do this all over again, I’d pick Nikole every time.

PICK NIKOLE!!
She was absolutely amazing. We love our photos and how she captured our memories. She was so thoughtful in capturing special moments and walks you through everything....
Her pricing is unbeatable for the quality you receive. She really cares and listens to how you want the photos to turn out (ex: Lighting and vibes). Something that I loved and was not expecting is that she makes a wedding itinerary for you. We did not have a wedding coordinator and I didn't feel that we needed one since Nikole helped with the entire wedding day timeline. She also made a family formal list that can help you with making sure you get all of the photos you want. Basically so you don't forget a special photo in the chaos of the big day.
Super east to talk to and easy to contact. She is incredible!!!!

I had the BEST experience with Nikole as our wedding photographer! One of the most important things to have on your big day is someone who can capture all the moment that made it s...
o special, and she did that and more.
I was a very laid back bride and did not know what to expect for the big day. She helped us create a timeline, was great working with a budget, and definitely answered any questions we had.
We had a larger wedding party consisting of 20 bridesmaids/groomsmen. She worked well with the bridesmaids, but even better with the rowdy groomsmen!
After the wedding, I was shocked at how fast she got the pictures back to us, and they were absolutely STUNNING!
We can’t wait to use her as our family photographer in the future years to come! We appreciate you so much!

ent on our wedding day. Because it rained on the wedding day, she even scheduled us to come to her personal studio later so that we could have all the outdoor photos we wanted originally. I am extremely thankful for all her help and effort! Most of all, we have SO MANY beautiful photos to choose from from the big day! I would 100% recommend Nikole Wells Photography for any couple looking for a photographer for their big day!

y better.. she asks plenty of questions to gauge who you guys are and I thought it was very above and beyond to get that kind of service. She took pictures of me walking down the aisle and I never even saw her.. making yourself invisible so that a bride can be in her moment, but still getting the perfect shot so your client can have that memory forever… PRICELESS. The price of Nikole’s work doesn’t even compare to the high quality of her work and we were so blessed to have found her!

s. I couldn’t ask for a better photographer. Her imagination and able to put things together was another big factor. Also, She was more than just a photographer, she was also a wedding planner. I didn’t have a wedding planner but Nikole kept my wedding smooth and on a schedule the whole time. And for that, I’m so grateful for. I would highly recommend her to anybody needing a photographer for any event.
