We are so grateful we chose Lincoln (Nico) from Nico Photo Studio as our wedding photographer. From our first conversation about our goals to the planning details closer to the big day, he really listened to what we wanted and offered helpful suggestions that made our photos even better. On the wedding day, we felt his full attention and never rushed, and he guided us into poses and moments that led to some amazing shots. We are especially excited to see how all of the photos turned out. We deeply appreciate his time, professionalism, and warmth, and would gladly recommend him to our friends and family! read more

We got married on Destiny through Electra Cruises on November 17, 2018. Nico was one of the first vendors we saw when we started booking our vendors. We were feeling extremely overwhelmed with everything that we had to do... but the way Nico talked to us, explained his packages, and showed us his work made us feel comfortable and made us want to book him ASAP. I am so glad we did. We absolutely loved the fact that he is bilingual... We both loved his work and his vibe. It was very easy to communicate with Nico and he was always on top on everything... letting us know what time we were going to meet, where we were going to meet, and who had to be there. He was also really good at letting me know that he was working on getting our pictures together and letting me know when to expect everything. The album he put together was absolutely amazing! I would definitely be using his for any other special moments we would like to have captured. read more

I have been working with Lincoln from the beginning of the wedding planning process. I met with many photographers before finally deciding that he best fit my vision for our wedding. Lincoln has a well rounded portfolio and beautiful studio. So far I have shot a boudoir and engagement session with him and my fiance and I are both so excited for the wedding. I know the photos will be amazing. He is so good about listening to what is important to us and making sure we get the photos we want. He is professional and relaxing to work with even if you aren't comfortable in front of the camera. I am happy to recommend him any of my friends! read more

Nico Photo Studio - My favorite engagement photo. - Event Photography Near Me - Tustin, California

Nico was a great photographer to work with during our wedding with Electra cruises. All our photos turned out great and he really knew the different poses that would work well for the venue. All our photos that were done prior to the wedding starting were beautiful. And our photos on the bow of our boat turned out great too. A few things that I wish I would have done was have guests come up to the bow (or stern.. not sure which) of the boat and take photos with us. At more traditional wedding settings there is usually photos of each table with the bride/groom, but because of the set up on the Athena boat it was hard to do. If I could turn back time, I would have loved if our DJ announced for different families to come up and take photos with us. I'm sure if I talked to Nico and the DJ ahead of time about this, we could have organized it better! We opted for the upgraded package which included the extra time before the wedding, and also a photo book. Nico was very kind and easy going. He was a no fuss photographer that really knew when and where to take the best photos for our venue. He was also very courteous with keeping me informed of when photos would be ready. and he mailed us a USB of all the photos a few months after the wedding, and then he mailed out our photo book about a month after that. Thanks Nico! read more

Nico took our engagement photos and we could not be happier!! We cannot wait to work with him again for our wedding! He put us completely at ease, was super flexible, very reasonably priced, and our photos are stunning! read more

Nico was a wonderful photographer we used for our wedding on Electra Cruises. His attention to detail and photos that were taken was excellent. He was willing to work with my husband & I on all of the photos we requested. I highly recommend his service. read more

We hired Nico to do photo shoots for our wedding at first. We were so impressed by not only the quality of his photo's but his ability to capture moments that will last forever. We also have used his company for our family photos and portraits. Cant recommend him enough as he is so easy to work with and pricing is competitive and well worth the investment. read more

Nico is amazing! He did my wedding was on 7-7-17 on Electra Cruises-Destiny and he is professional, takes great pictures and color corrected all our pictures at no extra cost. I recommend him for your next event. Thanks, Sylas and Javon Harvey read more

Nice guy and very pleasant to have at an event, but not impressed with the photos he did of our wedding. Most of the group/family photos were blown out. Since this was on Electra cruises, I would think he would be prepared for the tricky lighting and plan posed shots accordingly. We didn't get any family or group photos worthy of framing, but we did get a few good ones of just us. My maid of honor is a photographer who does occasional weddings and was disappointed by the photos as well. Maybe you have to get an upgraded package to get photos that look more professional. read more

Truly amazing work. Nico was very patient and good with kids. They say a picture worths a thousand words and this is just the case. I don't even need to pursue you to try him because his works speak for itself. Punctual, professional and our kids really enjoyed the photo shoot. Memories that will last a lifetime. Thank you so much and I will forever be a fan of your portfolio. read more

Nico Photo Studio - Love this photo of my daughter from Nico. - Event Photography Near Me - Tustin, California

I got married in October 2015 and had the pleasure of meeting Nico thru Electra Cruises. He did our engagement, wedding and my boudoir pictures. The boudoir photo session came first. I was super nervous because it was the first time I had ever taken "sexy" pictures but, Nico was totally professional and he made sure the poses were on point. He guided me step by step on how to pose, stand, sit, smile, suck it in and stick it out...lol My husband loved all the photos :) Next came the engagement pictures at Laguna Beach. Beautiful setting! He was so fun to work with. Even my husband had a good time being a model. Finally came our wedding day and by this time, working with Nico was like working with one of my good friends. He worked his tail off making sure he got all the shots I wanted. Our wedding day went by so quickly and although I did my best to live in the moment and take it all in, there were still moments that were a blur to me. But thanks to Nico, all those beautiful moments were captured. It was a beautiful feeling going thru the wedding album for the first time and feeling the rush of emotions all over again. I definitely recommend Nico photography to everyone. His talent, imagination, attention to detail and work ethic makes him someone I know I will continue working with in the future. read more

Nico is great! My wedding photos came out amazing. I will definitely be hiring him in the future!

Going into our wedding, my husband and I really had no idea what we were looking for in a photographer. We wanted the perfect combination of staged photos and candid moments, which is exactly what we got! I cried when i received our photos and got to relive each precious moment from start to finish. I've bragged about our gorgeous photo album and continually receive compliments regarding its quality and uniqueness. I will use Nico in the future and recommend him for years to come! read more

Our photos truly tell ever moment of our wedding. Nico did an amazing job in capturing ever detail especially of our Coptic Orthodox Christian Wedding (which had a lot of details). Honestly all who have seen our photos have been amazed. My mother-in-law speaks highly of the album and especially of Nico and his wife. I completely agree that Nico and his wife are dedicated to their work and pay very close attention to your needs and details. His pricing is very reasonable and the hours he puts in is greatly appreciated. He even cared as much as to mail our album to us out of state as we moved from California. Overall, we are grateful and know who to turn to and refer our loved ones to. read more

We got married on Eternity through Electra Cruises and saw one of Nico's photos when in the office setting our date. I knew I wanted him for our wedding photos. Nico does a great job of making all your photos look fresh and he is so comfortable to work with. I am not one to like to be photographed, but it was easy to relax with Nico and he is able to capture truly unique shots. With Nico, we were able to have an engagement shoot as well and we had one of those photos blown up to display during boarding on the wedding day. On wedding day, photos started when makeup and hair were adding final touches and he was with us throughout the entire day (even caught some drunken shenanigans lol). We just received them all and have a ton of favorites. He is preparing a board photo-book for us and can't wait to see that. Overall, Nico's work is what you want on your wedding day, professional, fun and experienced. read more

If I could give this amazing photographer a 10 star I would without any hesitation. Nico has been documenting almost every special occasion(family photos, weddings, maternity, newborn photos, engagement photos) for my family and I for a couple of years now. The most recent one was my wedding day 11/04/17 The most special and memorable day was captured by our dear friend and photographer NICO. He did such a great job on every single detail, from the very beginning until the end of the day. He was very patient with us, he kept reminding us to relax and to just enjoy our special day despite any small inconvenience. We will forever be grateful with Nico Photo Studio. A million thanks from Mr&Mrs Torres read more

Lincoln took photos of my newborn the other day. He was so kind, patient, and totally professional, even when my newborn peed on the blanket. I would absolutely hire him again for our other photography needs. Thank you Lincoln and Nico Photo Studio!! read more

Booked Nico through Electra Cruises on our wedding day and all I can say is... best photographer you can ever work with! He was really easygoing and laid-back. I'm not great in front of the camera, but he really made me feel comfortable and at ease. Because of his professionalism and his personality, it was really easy to relax and act natural. Nico made our photos look sophisticated, tasteful, and natural. He had me doing double takes saying "what?! Is that really me?!" I had a great time and highly recommend his service to any and every bride and groom! read more

Nico did an amazing job with my maternity shoot, he took his time shooting our pictures was in absolutely no rush and most importantly made us feel comfortable, his imagination and great ideas made our photo shoot a great success.

Nico did a amazing job with our engagement and wedding photos, I had mentioned that I had a lot of Pinterest ideas and what was really cool is he starters following my wedding board so he knew which photos I was talking about on the day off. He and Lilly went above and beyond to capture our day. His packages are very reasonably priced and you get a lot of extras too especially compared to other photographers. My husband wanted a photo book and the quality of Nico's was incredible some photographers wanted to charge me over $1000 for just the book and it was included in his package. I would recommend him to everyone his professionalism and quality of the product are beyond what the cost is. Thanks Nico for making the memories of our day perfect. read more

I hired Nico Photography to shoot my Disneyland wedding in October 2012. I was advised my Disney to not hire someone who was not on their vendor list, I ignored them and hired Nico anyway. I am so glad I did, he and his team did an amazing job. Lincoln and his team were on time, professional, and got all the shots I requested from him. I could not imagine having another photographer shoot anything else for me in the future, I will be a lifetime customer. read more

Nico is a great photographer. He did both our engagement photos and our wedding. When approached about a situation he has never encountered(ice hockey photos) he took it head on and gave us beautiful, playful photos. He was open to my Pinterest ideas and made them a reality for us. Nico is a photographer that takes his clients first and shares his talent to make your life events memorable to cherish forever. We are thankful to have found him and have the opportunity to work with. read more

Amazing work!!! Truly talented! A pleasure to work with every time. Very professional but never uptight. He is very willing to listen and make your vision or ideas come true. We never felt rushed during our engagement shoot. Ill be the first to admit that I've always been very difficult when it comes to photos but that didn't seem to frustrate him at all. Can't wait for the big day... I'm sure his work and mannerism will once again delight us!!! read more

The best Photographer I know in OC, love his job and his passion for photography extraordinary

Nico Photography has been taking photos of our son since he was 2 months old. It has been a joy to work with him. Nothing is too much trouble for him and he will meet us pretty much anywhere. We have had photos taken at home, at a local park, on a college campus, and at the beach. He has great ideas and listens to our crazy ideas! We have had superhero and soccer themes w/ more traditional settings. Every photo shoot has produced amazing photos of our little guy and everyone has commented on how good the quality is. Book him for your next shoot. Thanks again! read more

Lincoln (Nico) did a couple of photo shoots for me this past year - pregnancy and newborn. He was so patient and made things go very smoothly. I was a bit uncomfortable at first when prepping for my pregnancy photos given the skin exposure, however he made it very easy and made sure I was okay with each shoot. He is very creative and is such a wonderful photographer. I got many compliments on both shoots from friends and relatives. If I had met him just a year earlier, I would have definitely hired him to photograph my wedding. I've seen his albums and his work is just amazing. As well, he came to my home for both shoots and brought all necessary equipment. I will surely be using him in the future for my son's birthday parties, family photo shoots, etc. He is a very nice guy and such a pleasure to work with. He really has a passion for photography. I had no problem getting in contact with him and he made himself available for any questions/concerns I had. There is no doubt that this is just the beginning of a very successful career for Nico Photography. I highly recommend! You will not be disappointed! read more
