WHAT THEY SAID
From the bottom of our hearts, we are so thankful to Nikki for capturing our day with such care, talent, and heart. We truly feel like the luckiest couple to have had her behind the lens. Every image she delivered holds the day exactly as we felt it. Looking through them brings the entire day rushing back in the most magical way. She caught the quiet moments, the laughter, the love, and everything in between that we’ll cherish forever. Ryan and I loved every single photo and appreciate all of her attention to detail. We will treasure these photos for a lifetime. They are a gift to us now, and they’ll be a gift to our future family one day too. We are so, so grateful for her. Thank you, Nikki, for being such a beautiful part of our wedding.

When it came to a wedding photographer, to say I was picky is an understatement. I wanted to make sure that whoever we chose was going to be able to not only capture photos of one of the greatest days of our lives, but capture the emotion and genuine experience of the day. I knew when we picked Nikki we had nothing to worry about. She was so easy to work with from the very first Facetime, to our engagement shoot, and all the way to our big day-- I can confidently say the one and only thing that I never worried about for our wedding was how our pictures would turn out. She is not only incredibly talented, but is also professional, kind, patient, and just a lovely person all around. I am forever grateful to have met her through our wedding, and will forever be telling my friends to use her for their weddings because there is simply no one better. Thank you Nikki!
-The Mireleses
Nikki is a fantastic photographer and that's coming from a wedding planner! She was great throughout the planning process (good communication crucial in our industry). She arrived the day prior to scope the venue since she hadn't been (without having me ask) and was on point the entire wedding day. She was a joy to work with on a long day and understood the tasks at hand. The sneak peaks well they speak for them selves! Well done Nikki, I hope we work together again!

MEET NIKKI
Hey there. My name is Nicolette Baker, but you can call me Nikki. I’m a desert grown, tequila loving, globe trotting dog-mom. I am married to my high school sweetheart (it’s disgustingly cute, I know). We currently live in the pit-stop town of Yuma, Arizona where I spend a lot of time reading, “training for that marathon”, and going on mini getaways with my husband probably where there is little to no cell reception.
I fell in love with photography over 17 years ago. This has always been more than a career to me. Photography has always been a way for me to show people I love them, create beautiful art and keep precious memories forever.
Doing the same thing for other people just makes sense, and 7 years later, so here we are.
