Newport has this incredible way of feeling timeless and full of life all at once. The ocean air, the historic charm, the light that shifts over the water — it’s no wonder so many couples choose to say “I do” here. Whether you’re dreaming of a grand mansion or a quiet beachside celebration, Newport offers a backdrop that feels both elegant and deeply personal.
I’ve spent over a decade photographing weddings along the New England coast. What I love most is capturing those real, unscripted moments — the laughter, the little glances, the emotion you might not even realize is happening until you see it later. My style blends both film and digital, so your photos will have that soft, timeless feel but also the crisp details that make every moment come alive.
Why Newport Is Such a Special Place for Your Wedding
Newport, RI.
A Photographer Who Knows Newport — and Your Story
Your wedding day should feel relaxed and true to you. That’s exactly how I approach every Newport wedding I’m lucky enough to photograph. I know the light, the spots, and the rhythms of this coastal town, but more importantly, I want to get to know you — how you move, what makes you smile, what stories are woven into your day.
Using both film and digital cameras, I focus on capturing the genuine moments — the ones that show the love, the joy, and even the quiet pauses. Newport is full of beautiful corners, from the lively harbor to the peaceful beaches, and I’m here to make sure your photos feel as authentic and emotional as the day itself.

"Nicole was amazing to work with! She captured our small Cape Cod wedding so beautifully. The photos were better than I could have imagined. She was very communicative and professional, and she got our photos to us quickly! I will definitely be recommending her to others.”
