about nicole

As a photographer + guide for adventurous elopements + destination weddings, I’m passionate about capturing genuine moments between two people in love. I believe your wedding day should be true to you, just as I strive to capture images that are honest and real. Like you, I adore seeking adventure and creating a life that’s anything but ordinary.

Also the owner of Map + Compass Photography, my work is driven by a deep commitment to my clients’ values. As your guide, I help you uncover what is most important to you on your wedding day and then bring your vision to life through a meaningful celebration in an extraordinary location. I also guide us through the planning and logistics of your unique location – everything from terrain and angles of light to permits and transportation – so you don’t have to worry about a thing.

As your photographer, it is my goal to build a relationship with you that’s based on trust and respect from the very beginning of our process. This foundation, and your comfort and ease in my presence, reflects in every photo. It is the heart of what I do: create a space that honors who you are, where you feel free to simply be yourselves and share this experience together.

Things I love…music (think Maggie Rogers), traveling, yoga, new experiences/cultures, art and anything with an aztec print.

 Documenting hundreds of celebrations has shown me what’s most important:

TO BE TRUE TO YOU, ALWAYS.
