Hi, I’m Nicole!

I’m a photographer serving Naperville and the Chicago suburbs. I’m mom to Lucas (4) and Eden (2). By day, I work in marketing for a niche healthcare services company. In my free time I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, enjoying the outdoors, and traveling.

I’m not certain if they have traced a photography gene, if so I have it. I learned to love photography as a model for my grandfather’s class. At age five, I got behind the lens and conducted my first photo shoot with my beloved cabbage patch dolls. A couple years later I developed a business plan for a studio of my own, Coco’s Photos, live monkey and all. In my high school’s darkroom I developed my technical skills and love for black and white photography. I went on to work for one of Naperville’s best children’s photography studios where I shot, assisted, managed and even had a greeting card line named after me.

My goal as a photographer is to create images that capture the moment perfectly. I’d love to meet you and create lasting memories for you and your family.
