Sunflower Field Family Session photo of young child smelling a sunflower, captured by Carmen Nicole Photography 
Photography is an art form.

Investing in professional photography is an investment in yourself, an artist and ultimately, the art. More than just your photographer, our promise is grounded in our core values. Our goal is to build a relationship with you, your business, and your family that lasts beyond our first session.

I believe each story and project is just as unique as the person, couple, family, brand, or creative. My hope is that there is a collection that meets your needs.

  • "Great with kids! We have used Carmen many times for family sessions and I'm always pleased with the results. We have two small children and I can never tell what we are going to get. After our last session, I was sure we would have nothing because my daughter was not happy about taking pictures that day. I was shocked when Carmen sent the proofs over for review. They were amazing! My extended family didn't even believe that my daughter was having a bad day! We always have several photos to choose from that we LOVE. Carmen is professional, friendly, and will make sure you have the shots you need."

  • "It was a pleasure working with Carmen! I was nervous going into the session and felt awkward about getting headshots done. Not only did she get me out of my shell and make me at ease, she knew exactly how to pose me for the perfect headshots that captured my authentic self in a professional light. I highly recommend her!"

    — Liza M.

  • "Carmen was the best! My brother and I planned a last minute Christmas gift for my mom and Carmen was so helpful to work with our busy schedules! Also not to mention so patient with our furry family as well! That was my most concern, we wanted some photos with our pets as well as he and I together. It was awesome though! I'm am so grateful for her patience and incredible eye. It was the perfect place in Williamsburg as well. She saw my "vision" and she nailed it! My mom loved the photos to where they made her cry in a good way. She had been wanting this for year and I finally gave her her wish and Carmen helped that happen. It definitely will not be the last time either. Probably will have another mini session in the near future! Thank you Carmen for your help!"

  • "We hadn't taking a family photo in over 10 years. Carmen made our photo session so much fun and enjoyable. She was knowledgeable, patient and creative. Everyone who saw our photos said they looked like a magazine shoot. I have recommended Carmen to all my friends. Thanks Carmen!"

    -Lila B.

  • "Carmen took mine and my husband’s engagement photos, and they turned out great. Carmen is very professional, and she made us feel relaxed and happy right off the bat. My husband hates taking pictures and isn’t very good at what he calls “fake smiling.” Yet Carmen was able to capture his true smile. I didn’t realize just how perfect Carmen’s pictures were until I saw our wedding photos. Although I love our wedding photos, they didn’t capture our personalities quite as well as Carmen’s photos do. I definitely would recommend Carmen to others. She’s fun to take pictures with, and she’s really perfected her skills!"

    -Audrey P.

  • "In the blur of my baby coming early, and then the crazy newborn fog, I wasn't able to have newborn photos taken. I was able to schedule 4 month photos with Carmen and I'm so, so glad I did. She perfectly captured my daughter's sweetness and emerging happy personality. Carmen was very easy to work with and made my husband and I feel comfortable with the whole shoot. We will definitely use her again!"
