Finding a good photographer should feel as Exciting as finding your true lovE!
Why my clients love me:
- Good photography should be affordable, and I am! Monthly installment plans are always an option, if it helps to pay over a longer period of time. And free engagement sessions are included with all-day weddings!
- Everything is done with ease, since you can sign + pay for your services right from your phone! Your images will arrive thru a gorgeous, custom, private online gallery. Even prints, albums, save-the-dates & thank-you cards are easy to order directly in your gallery! And since the gallery is shareable, gone is the possibility that no one will ever see your photos.
- I will photograph your day without getting in the way.
- Sometimes, I bring Arabic food to my clients...
- …I might bring champagne, too!
- You will get your money's worth in memories. My clients receive more quality pictures than most photographers provide. Because I work hard to tell the story of how your day went, especially if you didn't book a videographer. And every single image is edited.
- Did you even read #5?
So now that you've found me, you're set for life ;)

FAQ
Can I give you a shot list?
I understand how important your pictures are! But working off a "shot list" is not my style. It is best to let me capture your day naturally. This way I can give you my full attention! Check out my portfolio for samples of my work (click on "See more" above).
What kind of equipment do you use?
It only makes sense that a 'Nic' uses 'Nik'on! I use my amazing D780 (their newest hybrid DSLR) and the best Nikon G prime lenses (the newest in class!) I will use my professional flash kit at your reception or wherever it's dark!
When will I receive my photos?
You will receive your beautiful pictures within 4 months of your event. But we will send you a sneak peak 1 month after your wedding so you can send thank-you's! Engagement pictures will be sent within 30 days of your session.
Save-the-dates & Thank-you cards can be ordered right from within your photo gallery, and they will be printed in the highest quality available in the USA.
What is your payment & refund policy?
We will send you an electronic contract for signature + a link to pay for your service by Visa, Mastercard, Discover, or American Express. Both a signed contract + payment are required to hold any date. We will not hold your date for more than 7 days without both.
A 50% non-refundable retainer is required to book and hold the date of your event and also serves as a cancellation fee. The remaining 50% balance is due 45 days before your event. If you need to cancel your contract or reschedule the event date, the retainer will not be refunded, but you will receive 100% credit towards a new/future date instead. Monthly installment plans are available as well.
Can I request edits?
I believe in capturing real people and real moments. I do not photoshop images and I will not be able to accommodate editing requests. As the photographer, I look at pictures a certain way. If I believe an image will look best in B&W or Color, I edit it that way. I do not make changes after you see the photos.
Can I edit my pictures?
Photographers are artists, and we own all images we create, for the rest of our life, and afterwards! My editing style is how I leave my signature on my work. Adding filters or additional editing is like buying a van Gogh, painting over it, and claiming it as his work or your own. So what you receive are printing rights only, not creative copyrights.
Will my pictures be watermarked?
Digital downloads of your images may include a small version of my logo/elegant signature in the bottom right corner. But this signature will not appear in any prints you order directly in your gallery store! All Clients receive unlimited digital downloads with my signature, and printing rights thru their gallery.
It's best to order your prints and products thru your gallery store since that is the only way you preserve the original quality and resolution. Printed on Kodak Professional Endura Premier Paper, these are the highest quality archival prints, with a longevity of 100 years in typical display conditions and 200 years in dark storage.
Can I pick the time for my session?
I only schedule outdoor portraits around 2 hrs before sunset. This will provide the best lighting for your pictures!
What if it rains on my session day?
In the case of inclement weather, I will contact you that day to offer you new dates for your portraits. We will reschedule as many times as needed.
How far do you travel?
Everywhere! I locally serve the Lehigh Valley and surrounding areas, including Berks, Bucks, and Northampton counties. But I can travel anywhere you need me for your big day!
