    Best photographer ever!

    I cannot say enough good words about Nikki and her husband, Brian. Their energy is everything you could ask for on your wedding day- so relaxed, sentimental vibes, and all encompassing love for our day. I did not expect Nikki to give a speech to us while we were getting ready (in the best way) that brought the room to tears and really reminded everyone of the reason we were all together. The most important memories I wanted to capture were the dance floor and Nikki did an amazing job capturing the whole vibe of the wedding. She also makes you feel super comfortable posing and nothing is awkward at all. Also she has such a creative eye in using the space around us to turn something simple into something really beautiful. Nikki is going to do my sisters wedding as well. Also, Nikki has the BEST price out of any photographer around!

    Amazing eye for detail

    What an incredible pleasure to work with Nikki and her husband with declaration photography. I’m a hair and makeup artist that specializes in a bridal hair and makeup for over 25 years. I’ve worked with hundreds of photographers. But Nikki just has a presence about her and is a bright light that just adds the perfect calm to your day.
    Nikki has such a great eye that she captured our photographs just beautifully. We were married on a friends yacht, so it was a very different type of venue for her. She maneuvered around amazing and captured some incredible memorable shots of me and my groom as well as our family and at our reception that followed, Which was at the Bradenton yacht Club. Thanks Nikki for the amazing photos your a God send. Truly.

    Nikki is the most talented photographer I have come across in this business. She not only made all of our dreams come through photos but because a family member by the end of the night. Worth every single dime!

    Unforgettable!

    I don’t think I could say enough positive things about Nikki. She is just an absolute beautiful soul and she has been incredible to work with. We were sold just by seeing her pictures through our vendor and talking with her over the phone. She is a lover of love and humans and she has a way of capturing the most incredible raw moments of life. We can’t wait to use her again!

    Such a beautiful soul that captures the BEST moments!!!

    Since the first day my husband and I met Nikki, we absolutely fell in love with her and her passion for capturing the perfect moment. She had exceeded all of our expectations, added touches, and captured moments we never even thought could be captured! She has the biggest heart and is such an added ray of sunshine when getting pictures taken. She is so true to what she says and always wanting to go the extra step to make everything perfect. Nikki is great with communication and making sure everything is just right for your special day. She is not just a photographer but someone you can lean on and rely on (especially on your most important and stressful day)! And will for sure put a HUGE smile on your face! My husband and I have created an everlasting relationship with Nikki and trust her with all of our BIG moments in our lives! We HIGHLY recommend Nikki and truly believe you will not be disappointed!

    Stunning photographer ... but even better human!

    If you are looking for someone who will make you feel at ease on your wedding day, you've found them! Nikki with Declaration Photography is a dream to work with. She understands your vision, while capturing what really matters ... the tiny moments that could only live in your memory. Having her around on the day was in a word, lovely! She brought light, laughter, and made everyone feel so comfortable. The pictures were simply stunning and a true representation of the guests ... could not recommend more!

    Amazing Photographer

    We are so Over the Moon with our daughter’s wedding pictures from Declaration Photography! Absolutely gorgeous…all of them! Nikki has such a keen eye to find the “perfect” picture that captures the joy, love and happiness in everyone. Not only is she an amazing photographer but an amazing soul. Our daughter and husband really bonded with Nikki and the pictures really showed who they are as a newly married couple. Nikki will be our photographer for all our events as she is now part of our family. We strongly recommend Declaration Photography for any event.

    Absolutely Amazing!

    Niki and her team did both our engagement and wedding photos - one in the evening and the other first thing in the morning. She did an incredible job and knew how to work with the different times of days, but also gave helpful direction. We have since received them and absolutely love how they turned out. I would highly recommend Declaration Photography!

    Truly Amazing!

    You cannot go wrong with Declaration Photography! Nikki is an absolutely wonderful person and her work is so beautiful. She is extremely professional and everything was perfect. She makes you feel completely comfortable and relaxed, which was so important for me because I'm not used to being photographed. She also knows how to get all the best shots. I'm so thankful to have had Declaration Photography at my wedding!

    Nikki truly is set apart as a wedding photographer!

    From the moment Nikki showed up at our venue she brought professionalism, creativity and enthusiasm. She truly is one of a kind. All you need to do is look at her photos online, they speak for themselves. But not only are her photos incredibly beautiful, Nikki is one of the most gracious ladies I've ever met. What a wonderful addition to any important event. She evaporates stress and instead infuses joy!

    Incredibly talented photographer

    We hadn't planned on hiring a photographer, for our wedding, until our friends shared their wedding photos done by Declaration Photography. We are so grateful that we hired Nikki, and now we have beautiful photos for life. Nikki took the most amazing photos, and included even the smallest details. The photos are original and creative, and captured more than we asked for. Most of all, Nikki has an incredibly engaging personality, and made us feel special from the moment she walked through the door.

    We had a short notice wedding and Nikki was very accommodating and overall just a lovely human being. She made us feel so relaxed and the photos definitely show it. The shots, the editing, everything was done beautifully, can't wait to hang some on the walls of our future home. This woman LOOOOOVES weddings and has a great talent for capturing those special moments, would 100% recommend!

    Declaration Photography

    Where do I begin conveying our gratitude to Nikki for her incredible photography services?! From the very first moment I began talking to her about our wedding in April, she was completely tuned in to our wishes and hopes for everything we wanted to capture on our special day. Her outpouring of sincere happiness for us and our families was evident throughout the planning process and the entire wedding day. She worked closely with us to make everyone as comfortable as can be and let me just say, the images she took are all breathtaking. From beautifully staged shots to the very special candid shots that only a true professional could see through their lens, Nikki came through for us in every way! She has a heart of Gold and her contagious affection shines through in all her interactions and in every photo she takes! We highly recommend Nikki - so much so we are having a newborn baby shoot with her this week to capture our beautiful new bundle of joy!!!!

    The absolute BEST photographer!

    I can't say enough good things about Nikki! From the moment I spoke with her over the phone, I knew I couldn't go with anyone else for my wedding photos. She has this amazing fervent energy about her that is inspiring and magical. I was so excited to meet her in person and she did not disappoint. She's the sweetest, kindest person and knows how to direct her subjects effortlessly. She made my engagement and wedding photos come out just breathtaking and I will treasure them forever. Choose Nikki, you will never regret it! ❤️

    Best person, best photographer, beautiful pictures

    We loved working with Nikki for our wedding. We fell in love with her after our very first phone conversation. She is just a beautiful human filled with wisdom. Working with her on our wedding day was so much fun. The moments she captured were spectacular. Our children warmed up to her right away as well. She was flexible and easy to work with. She helped make our day so special with her words of advice about our ceremony. The post she wrote about us afterwards encapsulated how we feel about our relationship and marriage and was so meaningful to us. She got us.

    Breathless for years to come!

    I started to write this review and as I sat here pondering what to type, I found myself without the ability to articulate words and tears began to fall. Oh. My. Goodness. My day was without a doubt the most incredible day of my life, Nikki and her son (my second photographer) captured those moments so beautifully. I have done two sessions now with Nikki, a family session and my wedding. The memories that have been captured will be moments I look back on for the rest of my life. I made the perfect decision choosing her to capture my day. I still have friends and family speaking of how amazing she was. She is so professional, loving, and truly loves her profession; it shows through her work and mannerisms. If you are questioning going with Declaration Photography, set up a meeting. The moment you sit down and hear her speak so beautifully of love and see her work, you will know you made the right choice. Gosh, I could go on and on. What a wonderful experience. I will continue to reach out to her for future photography needs.

    A true artist and beautiful person!

    The photos she captured of our special day are absolutely stunning! Nikki was such a pleasure to work with, she takes such pride in her work and is a true artist. She is one of the sweetest individuals you'll ever meet, and you feel as if you've known her for years! Truly one of the best choices I made for our wedding day, thank you so much Nikki for all the gorgeous photos!!!
