Moments flash by at the blink of an eye; who you are and the ones you love are constantly changing and growing. These are YOUR moments- cherish them, record them, keep them with you for years to come. I want to capture those authentic smiles, real laughter, true love and connection- I want to capture who you are right now in the present.
Taking photos should be fun; you'll catch me behind the lens overly using the word cute, grinning out of excitement because I like what I'm seeing through the lens, and randomly barking at you to 1, 2, 3- LAUGH! So yes, photos should be fun and I'm here to help make that happen- what are you waiting for?

I've always had a passion for taking photos, everywhere I went I had my phone in hand; the annoying girl stopping my family/friends for photo op's or lagging behind capturing the nature and beauty surrounding us. So while I was working at Meadowood Napa Valley in the Marketing Department my husband got me a camera for my birthday and I started capturing photos for social media at events and around property.
Ever since I got married 4 years ago weddings never fail to give me all the feels. I can absolutely relate to that overwhelming feeling of appreciation, excitement, and LOVE that fills the day, and your heart! What is a wedding and what is an elopement? Honestly, there really is no true definition; from generation to generation what is considered a "traditional" wedding is constantly evolving.
Outdoor family sessions, maternity, indoor newborn lifestyle, and extended family sessions- you've come to the right place! During these we will get a variety of shots with your family; from group shots, to individual portraits of each child, mom and kids, dad and kids, one on one's, etc. I will help guide you through the session from start to finish.
Chasing sunsets and capturing that crazy little thing called love is what these sessions are all about! From the time of booking to delivering your final gallery- I'll be here to help! One of my favorite things about these sessions is seeing clients show up really shy, and BAM I'm able to see their connection just shine through the lens.
Hey you! High School Senior? Professional? Business Owner? Blogger? These sessions are made for you. Being able to work one on one with someone is so much fun. It really gives me the opportunity to get to know you and capture who you are. I want your personality to shine through these photos, and it's my job to help made that happen!

We had Nadine take our family pictures last year and we LOVED them! So, we ended up coming back this year with our extended family, and again, she wowed us all! She has such a fun, easy personality and is great with kids. She is a master with lighting, and we are so excited to display our gorgeous pics in our house. We strongly recommend Nadine to everyone!

Nadine was the best surprise, secret photographer I could imagine for my proposal. She totally bought into the surprise and helped me plan as much as I needed. She's social, upbeat, and just fun to be around which made the photoshoot more like 3 friends hanging out taking photos rather than a rigid, professional photo shoot. And her pictures are stunning. Both color and B&W when you see the photos you just think to yourself "damn, these are real good." I highly recommend Nadine for any photoshoots near Napa. She's responsive in the planning process, and very professional. Thanks Nadine!

Nadine is the kindest and most talented soul. Her approach to photography makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera. She is so playful and sweet to our kids as well, which makes them feel at ease in front of the camera. Nadine is always up for experimenting with new locations, poses or occasions and truly listens to what you want out of your shoot. Some of our most cherished family photos have been taken by Nadine over the years. We recently told her we wanted “beach pictures.” Without hesitation, she found the most beautiful beach location in Half Moon Bay and directed so many beautiful

My husband and I were visiting Napa last month and Nadine was able to book us last minute. It was our first time in the area and our anniversary. My husband really doesn't like taking photos but she made him feel comfortable and to his surprise, it turned out to be really fun. Thanx Nadine for making our trip even more great, we love our photos!

I can't begin to tell you how truly amazing my elopement was and how much of that credit must go to Nadine. From the start, she was quick to respond to my countless emails, friendly, and helpful in telling me more about my options for elopement locations/styles. My fiance-now husband and I landed on getting eloped in Yosemite. She worked with our not-so-flexible schedules and we so happened to land on the best weekend I think the entire year had to offer. Saturday was blue skys and sunny, Sunday we woke up to a snow covered Yosemite Valley. Pure chance, but boy were we all in shock. Nadine made
