NICOLA BORLAND, Nicola Borland Photography

Custom wedding Photography is an investment in beautiful artistry that will be treasured for generations to come, and we take your investment in our artistic skills very seriously.  

We know that after the music dies down, the cake has been eaten and the honeymoon has been enjoyed, your memories, and your wedding photography are the only tangible items you will have left. This is why we make sure to get to know each and every one of our clients to ensure that you are getting the wedding photography YOU want and not just a run of the mill snapshot.

Award winning photographer Nicola has been shooting for over 15 years and been running her Wedding and Portrait  business with love for over 7 years.  She didn't always know she was going to be a photographer, but doesn't know what else she would be doing right now.  Nicola loves all things vintage and shabby chic and can often be found searching flea markets for the perfect box or bowl to put a newborn baby in.  It's an addiction.  She has no problem lying in the dirt to get the perfect shot for you either.   

"One of my favorite moments  on the wedding day is knowing when I got the shot, and showing it to my clients.  Seeing their reaction, which is usually one of awe and wow at seeing themselves, and being able to say that, this is you, this is what you look like, and I just know how to capture it.  That's my favorite moment, and that's what I am a photographer." www.NicolaBolandPhotography.com
