About

Overview & Vibe

Nicolette has photographed Central Coast weddings for well over a decade as an accredited full-time professional, and the published work reads like a map of the region — Norah Head Lighthouse, Terrigal, Wamberal, Hargraves Beach, Caves Beach, Somersby Falls, Long Jetty, Summerland Point, Yarramalong and Boat Harbour, with Hunter Valley Gardens and Raffertys Resort an hour away. The pictures are warm and unhurried, and they take in the whole day rather than a highlight reel.

Style & Approach

Her own description is a mix of modern photojournalism, traditional, candid, fun and creative, and she says she fits in at a wedding like a guest — a relaxed, friendly, professional presence rather than a director. She pays particular attention to light and composition, works with natural light wherever she can, and delivers a good part of every gallery in black and white alongside the colour. Couples who feel nervous get a pre-wedding portrait session built into the three larger collections, which is there precisely so the camera stops feeling strange.

Ideal For

Couples marrying on the Central Coast who want the day covered from the bride getting ready through to the bridal waltz, and who like knowing the shape of a collection before they enquire. There is a genuinely short option too: elopement coverage from two hours, suited to a gathering of forty or fifty, and she will tailor something between two and a half and four and a half hours on request.

The Need-to-Knows

Three main wedding collections run to five, seven and nine hours, and all three include a pre-wedding planning meeting, an hour-long pre-wedding portrait shoot on the Central Coast, a private online gallery and a USB of edited high-resolution images. The largest adds a layflat album. Prints are included at every level. A small booking deposit secures a date and the balance falls due sixteen days before the wedding, with a payment plan available. An additional photographer can be arranged at extra cost.

Standout Feature

The hour-long portrait session before the wedding, included rather than sold as an add-on in all three main collections. It doubles as a rehearsal for being photographed, which is the thing most couples say they dread, and it means she has already met and worked with them before the morning of. She is a member of the Master Photographers Association, WPPI and the AIPP.
