Hi, I'm Nichole!

A Cedar Falls, Iowa photographer specializing in corporate headshots, sports, seniors, weddings, and event photography.

I began my photography journey in 2011 and quickly discovered that photography is about far more than simply taking pictures — it’s about preserving personality, confidence, and meaningful moments in a genuine way. My goal is to create clean, modern images that feel authentic to the people in them.

From planning your session to selecting your favorite images and designing artwork for your home or business, I’m here to make the entire process simple, comfortable, and personalized from start to finish.

Cedar Falls Photography Without the Cookie-Cutter Experience

I work with seniors, athletes, families, professionals, businesses and organizations throughout Cedar Falls, Waterloo, Mason City, Clear Lake and the surrounding Cedar Valley and North Central Iowa. My approach is less about forcing you into a collection of standard poses and more about figuring out what makes you—or your brand—worth noticing.

Senior sessions are built around personality. Sports photography is designed to give athletes the kind of images they actually want to share. Professional headshots and branding photography help businesses put a face to what they do. And when I'm photographing an event or wedding, I'm looking for the real moments happening between the planned ones.

Based in Northeast Iowa and regularly working throughout the Cedar Valley and North Central Iowa, I photograph both in-studio and on location.
