    Amazing photos and great experience

    Nicole did our wedding photos in June 2023 and they came out amazingly! She really captured us authentically. We felt incredibly at ease with her. Our love shined through and the vibe of our reception was there in the action shots. We are extremely grateful we chose her as our photographer!

    Amazing photos!

    Nicole was awesome to work with! We both felt really comfortable with her from the first time we talked and on the actual day she was so easy to be around and made us feel comfortable getting our pictures taken. We love all of the photos so much, she captured the night perfectly and we’re so glad we chose her!

    Wonderful Photography

    Short read: Nicole’s photography and attention to detail is amazing, and she tackles whatever challenges you may pose. Whatever event you have her for, rest assured you will receive absolutely gorgeous photos. I cannot recommend Nicole enough as your photographer!

    Long Read: Nicole was hired to shoot our wedding in a venue that had multiple floors, as well as a wide range in lighting from bright sun to dimly lit nooks. We didn’t want to ruin the ambiance of romantic venue with bright flashes or harsh lighting, and Nicole absolutely knocked it out of the park and found a way to transition between lighting challenges flawlessly. Also, she took the time to get to know us beforehand and work with photographing the moments we wanted most. From simple details to candid shots, Nicole captured it all, in beautiful detail and sharp, clear photos. Her attention to detail was what caught my eye when going through her sample galleries, and she still has that knack. Our bridal portraits turned out gorgeous thanks to her posing and direction. She was able to corral our rowdy families and bridal party in almost 90 degree heat and get amazing shots despite that. All in all, our wedding gallery looks like a dream come true. I cannot recommend Nicole enough. Do yourself a service and please book her for your event!

    Nicole is the best!

    Nicole is the best! She is kind, thoughtful, and easy to be around, and on top of that takes the most gorgeous photos! She was quick to respond to all questions, worked within our budget, and provided a timeline for our day taking into account what we wanted. We felt so comfortable working with her on the day of the wedding. Her photographs of our day were more than we imagined, we wanted candid's and she delivered. I felt like I was reliving emotions of each of our guests while looking through the photos. We highly recommend Nicole!

    Gorgeous photos

    Nicole was so wonderful to work with and did an amazing job capturing our special day. She was easy going, fun to work with, and her photos speak for themselves. She is extremely responsive and quick to get photos back! Would rebook in a heartbeat!

    Loved working with Nicole!!

    Nicole did an amazing job with our wedding photography from start to finish. She was incredibly patient and flexible throughout many adjustments and changes to our original wedding plan which was postponed due to COVID-19. Nicole was so supportive of all our changes and did an incredible job capturing our day. We would hire her again in a heartbeat and are SO happy with the photos!!

    So flexible and great to work with!

    Nicole was so flexible to work with and we enjoyed having her as our photographer! Our pictures are better than we could have imagined - we absolutely LOVE them! Her response time for everything was always punctual - we even received our pictures back within two weeks of our wedding. If you're looking for a wedding photographer, hire Nicole! You won't regret it!

    Enjoyable to work with

    Nicole is such an enjoyable photographer to work with. She was flexible and worked with me patiently to make my wedding the way I wanted. We wanted Nicole to be our wedding photographer because of her works on garden weddings, and she didn't disappoint us, our wedding photos are gorgeous! I really love her work and enjoy working with her.

    Flexible, kind, and talented!

    Nicole was a dream to work with for our wedding photos! Her friendliness, patience, and care were all top notch. We had no idea what we wanted with our photos. She took the time to suggest a small nearby courtyard, which ended up being the perfect backdrop for. Even in a small group, she was able to snap candid shots that look natural, relaxed, and fun. I give her my highest recommendation!

    Absolute joy to work with

    I cannot recommend Nicole enough! She captured every detail of our wedding - from the little touches to the candid moments to amazing portraits - and she does it all with calmness, joy, and ease. We also did our engagement shoot with her and she got to know us (and we got to know her) before the wedding day so it felt like an old friend coming to document our wedding, which made everyone feel so comfortable and natural for photos. She even wrangled all the family members for big group shots with such grace and professionalism, it was amazing! Not to mention even rescuing me when a bee flew up my dress :) Needless to say, Nicole goes above and beyond to capture all the moments from your big day and she was absolutely one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding!

    Best of the Best

    Nicole is an amazing photographer. She captures candid moments, portraits, still life in all lights with an amazing eye. But more than that she is an amazing presence to have on your wedding day - both happy and calming she is a professional through and through.

    Nicole is the absolute best!! Just take a look at her blog and you'll see...her talent is undeniable! She is so sweet, easy to work with, detail-oriented, and very responsive. She was also very quick to post our wedding photos (within a couple of days she had a sneak preview online for us). She is a true professional and went above and beyond to make sure she captured all the small (but very important) details of our day. She is a bit more expensive than some other photographers I've seen, but in our experience she is worth every penny. We are so grateful to Nicole for giving us pictures of our wedding day (and engagement) that we will cherish for the rest of our lives.

    Nicole was great to work with. I found her work because she had done a wedding of friends of mine several years prior. She was very responsive to emails throughout the process, which was necessary for me as I live out of town, so I really appreciated that I could rely on her. We loved getting to do an engagement session before the wedding.

    Our photos turned out beautifully! Nicole really captured the emotions of the day, and did a great job getting large group shots together efficiently. Everything flowed really smoothly. She was also proactive before the wedding day to make sure that the timeline was planned out so we got everything in.

    I would absolutely recommend Nicole to future brides! I am extremely happy with our photos!!!!

    I found Nicole's work online and knew I wanted her to photograph our special day. From the initial e-mails, to the wedding, to getting the pictures back to us, Nicole was amazing to work with! She was super helpful and really worked with us and our crazy families :). We absolutely loved how she captured our "sneak peak," and all the photos of our small, city hall wedding. And we were especially pleased with how quickly she got the pictures back to us, and how easy it is to share the photos with our loved ones!

    We definitely recommend her to anyone!

    We are so happy we asked Nicole to be our wedding photographer! She is an amazing person and such a pleasure to work with! She was quick to respond to emails, organized and listens to what you're looking for. During our wedding, she beautifully captured all the special moments (she didn't miss a thing) and her photos are simply stunning. Her website and online gallery are also very easy to use which my family appreciated! She was also quick to edit and share our wedding photos with us!

    Nicole is absolutely amazing to work with. She's not only incredibly talented, but she's the sweetest person you'll ever meet. I'm really impressed with how Nicole captured what we were looking for in wedding photos - she truly cared about our vision and all the little details I hoped for. She was above and beyond organized throughout the event and got every shot we requested in our pre-event discussion. The only thing I'm disappointed about is that I told her I don't like it when people's heads are cut out of the photos, which she listened to, but I should've added that I also don't like when the bottom half of people are cut out too because I ended up with a lot of those, and the bottom half of my dress was gorgeous... Also make sure you mention that you want a full length shot of the back of your dress (if that's what you want) or you might only get the back of your dress while you're walking.

    AMAZING. We absolutely love our wedding day photos. They captured the spirit of the day perfectly. Once you day is over you just itch to get those pictures and when we received ours they did not disappoint. We had a few great posed photos and so many amazing candid photos, us just being us! We told her we didn't want too many staged pictures and she really honored that. On top of her amazing work in photos she was a pleasure to be with on our special day. She deal with our antics well and certainly handled two HUGE families like a pro. We had many compliments on how great she was. Even our other vendors only had good things to say! Go with Nicole!

    Nicole Haley did a spectacular job of capturing the essence of our wedding in mid-June. The photos are stunning! From inquiry of service until the photos were provided, she was exceptional in providing professional, kind, and timely responses. She went above and beyond to provide helpful ideas, tips, and feedback. Nicole has excellent communication and interpersonal skills. These extra touches are what made the experience with her so wonderful. I highly recommend Nicole Haley Photography for your special event.

    We loved working with Nicole! My husband and I are Midwesterners by birth by Autralians by residence. We wanted to get married back in the US midway between Chicago and Detroit (our hometowns). We came across lovely options in Ann Arbor for the ceremony, site, food and Nicole.

    Honestly, there were a lot of great options in Ann Arbor in terms of photographers. I am an artist and nature photographer myself; I think I had pretty high standards. However, no one was as approachable and helpful as Nicole. She let me pester her with questions about where to eat, things to do, what florist to hire, and more.

    I found that Nicole has a similar attitude towards life as my husband and myself. She loves the outdoors, is very down to earth, and takes time to notice the little things. Perhaps most photographers notice the 'little things'. But which little things. The aesthetically pleasing elements that are currently hot in pop culture or the details that clearly matter to you and accentuate your individuality. Nicole definitely falls into the latter category.

    Finally, Nicole photographed our wedding on the 19th of December. She had our prints edited and up online by December 24th! It was a lovely holiday surprise to share with our families. Since we don't see our family often, living overseas, this was a spectacular touch. I don't know how she completely the editing in a short week. Thank you for all that you did to make our wedding relaxing and beautiful.

    Your photographs will be the story of our marriage for many years to come. Thank you!

    I wish I could give Nicole 10 stars because 5 doesn't seem like enough. She is so superb at what she does and our pictures turned out more stunning than I ever imagined. From my first meeting with her it seemed like a great fit and I knew it was going to be so much fun to work with her. She is so easy going and makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera that the photos turn out very natural--we got a ton of fantastic candids and to be honest, I didn't even notice she was taking photos most of the wedding! I HIGHLY recommend working with Nicole, she is absolutely hands down one of the best photographers in Ann Arbor!!

    Our experience with Nicole was as phenomenal as my wife and I could have hoped for. From our very first meeting with her when we were still trying to find a photographer, we knew that we would feel very comfortable having her be a part of our very special day. Walking out of that first meeting, when she laid out everything she offered, we were both just about convinced that we would be choosing Nicole to be our photographer.

    After we made that decision, Nicole made the process as smooth as can be. She is clearly a seasoned professional and laid out all the steps necessary to prepare for the day, and we even met another time to iron out any details. She stayed in contact frequently and had a form for us to fill out to specify what types of pictures were the most important to us.

    On the day of the wedding, Nicole and her assistant were awesome. They were fun to be around and made the whole process a joy. We were laughing just about the entire time we were taking formal photos with them. She stayed through the dancing and was always around whenever we wanted to get a picture with someone. The wedding day was a first rate experience.

    Now that we have seen the photos, we again couldn't be happier. They turned out gorgeously, and we are going to enjoy these photos the rest of our lives. She took pictures of just about everything at the wedding, from the people to the ceremony to the location to the little details that made the wedding ours. We cannot wait until we get the wedding album she is making for us.

    We could not be happier with Nicole and the service she provided us. If looking for a photographer, you need to have a meeting with Nicole. I promise you will come away from that meeting with the same impression we had, and you will not regret your decision to choose her. She is fantastic!

    Nicole was absolutely amazing throughout the day. Many people commented when seeing the pictures that they had no idea she was even around at the time. We got so many great pictures - and mostly the non traditional candid versions that we requested.

    I would absolutely recommend her for any occasion.

    Nicole was absolutely phenomenal!

    Her vision and editing are classic and unique. She is incredibly professional and quick to respond. Whenever I had a question she had an answer within 24 hours. She was extremely attentive and even went above and beyond to find an assistant co-main photographer when she learned of her pregnancy to make sure our day was captured as we imagined it. She is incredibly sweet and personable and makes you feel comfortable.

    The images she captured of my husband and I on our wedding day tell the story of our wedding night. Picking a photographer was one of my most important decisions as I wanted to make sure the essence of that night was captured in its natural beauty. Nicole was able to do this flawlessly. Her images will forever allow my husband and I to revisit our beautiful wedding!

    I would highly recommend her to anyone who lists photography among one of their most valued decisions when it comes to their wedding.

    Thank you Nicole!

    I CANNOT say enough wonderful things about working with Nicole. There are so many aspects of her style and approach to shooting a wedding that I could praise, I honestly don't know where to begin. She was professional, attentive, available, helpful, funny, kind and supportive throughout the entire planning process. As we got closer to the wedding she guided me through the organization of the day and advised me on how to make sure everything was captured.
    The day-of the wedding, she was incredible. So calm, so soothing, so gently in charge. She made it so easy to enjoy the day - while also having a hundred photos taken. Her sweet nature and calm approach felt like I had a friend behind the camera.
    If you would like the essence of your wedding day captured - the details, the portraits and the love - in a way that is natural, relaxed and wonderful, look no further.
