We hired Nicolette to take pictures at my mom's 60th birthday. My brother has hired her a couple of times in the past, but this was my first time dealing with her directly. She is super responsive!! Super easy to book and responds very quickly. The day of the event she was very patient with everything going on, and got all the different pictures that I wanted. Can't wait to see the finished product. Thank you so much Nicolette!!!! read more

We've been attending one wedding after another and you can clearly see which photographers are professional and which ones are sucking up to you. Nicolette and Elaine were very professional. She came highly recommended by a relative's photographer. While we were looking for photographers, we had a call with Nicolette. She was not telling us what we should do and listened to what we wanted and advised what worked best. She worked with the timeline our venue gave and knew where our venue was (very important). When we asked her 3 weeks before the wedding if we can have a second photographer, she made it happen. What really stood her apart is that we agreed on a start and end time and what photos we wanted for the wedding. During the wedding, she checked in with us informing us how much more time we have her and Elaine for, as well as which photos we are still missing (table to table). She made sure we don't regret not having a particular photo with people and also did it to make sure that we are aware of the time so that if we don't want overtime, we have all the photos we wanted. Nicolette sent us sneak peeks of our wedding photos and we're so excited to see the rest! read more

Nicolette took underwater photos of my kids and they were breathtaking! She was extremely good with them and patient with me, as I was so late to our appointment. She is just rad all around!

Nicolette Moku Photography - My son diving into the pool, looking so WOWified!! Thanks Nicolette! - Event Photography Near Me

***Exactly what you want*** I've used Nicolette's services for my kids when they were younger, for graduations pics, and for my wedding! She's a PERFECT match for any occasion that you want photos for. When you are being photographed you want someone who is creative, yet calming for you to get the best out of you and your kids, and she's all of that and more! For my engagement pictures she took the time to get to know us, and knew exactly how to take the edge off my hubby who doesn't like to be photographed. She knew how to engage my teens, who can be a handful trying to all get to smile and actually enjoy being with their family taking photos. Moreover, and most importantly, she is a great photographer! Her style and techniques are exactly what we were looking for. You can tell she takes great joy in what she is doing. This is key and shows in her work. Above all, she's a professional. You don't have to work you will get left with no photos, bad photos, or anything in between, which is the experience my sister had with her photographer. read more

Nicolette and her assistant Maddie were just incredible. So genuine, kind, and professional. Our daughter fell in love with them (she thinks Maddie is the coolest ever). The pictures are incredible and they tell the story of an event filled with love, fun and of course, dancing. If you ever need a great photographer, start by hiring a great person. Thank you Nicolette for making our daughter's Quinceanera forever memorable. Albert and Maggie read more

Nicolette has done an amazing job on my family photos over the last few years. We recently did my daughter's Senior photo at a gorgeous location that Nicolette showed me. I can't put in to words just how happy am I with the way the pictures came out. My 17 year old HATES taking pictures and every photo of her is proof. But the pictures are BEAUTIFUL, and not just because I have a good-looking kid. :-) Nicolette went the extra mile to make sure my daughter was comfortable and at ease before shooting. I love that she never rushes through a photo shoot, she makes sure every detail is in place, and she is open to suggestion on poses. And she knows of the best locations to take pictures.  I have horror stories of OTHER photographers who took pictures with my kids crying and close-eyed... not Nicolette, she is great at what she does. read more

Nicolette is your go-to when it comes to stunning pictures...no matter the occasion. What was supposed to be family pictures, turned into engagement pictures. She is so genuine, kind and patient, and all around made the entire photoshoot fun and enjoyable. Our two year old absolutely loved Nicolette, and she was always cheesing away when it came to her. I was nervous for the photoshoot, as this was the first one we had done as a family, and I sure didn't know what to expect with a wild two year old..but it was simply the smoothest event ever. I highly recommend Nicolette Moku, for all of your photo needs. She will go above and beyond to make sure that everything is perfect. read more

I wanted a photographer to do a senior photo session for my daughter as well as family photos. From start to finish, Nicolette was AMAZING! All communication from inquiry, to setting our date and location and signing our contract was efficient and easy. Nicolette suggested the perfect location and the photos turned out exactly as I wanted! No one in my family is very comfortable in front of a camera, and she was so personable and easy to work with, that everyone was relaxed and the photos all look so beautiful and natural. I am recommending Nicolette to all of my friends, and will definitely return to her the next time we need photos. read more

She was patient, attentive, and kept a very professional and friendly attitude. Most importantly, my photos came out fantastic! She made me look so good!

My wife and I wanted to take maternity photos but didn't want to do the mall portrait thing. My wife found Nicolette on Yelp, checked out her website, and liked the photos she had posted. Throughout the scheduling she replied to e-mails very promptly. We really wanted to do photos outdoors and it was nice that she does this. The weekend we had scheduled had rain in the forecast but she was flexible and we kept the appointment hoping the weather would cooperate. She was good at communicating the day of to see if things were going to work out with the weather. Unfortunately it was overcast and drizzly but we wanted to keep our appointment. Fortunately, the photos still turned out nicely. Nicolette had good ideas for poses and backgrounds at the beach.....even in the overcast weather. She even had some fun props that we decided to use in the photos and they turned out great as well. She was quick at editing the photos and getting them up for us to see, especially considering this was right around Christmas time. Overall we were very happy with our photo session, photos and prints. The prints were provided is a lovely box which was a nice touch. We would recommend using her. read more

Working with Nicolette was perfect. I emailed her to set up our session and from the first email to final delivery, everything went off without a hitch. She was nice and responsive over email.

The session itself was fun and laid back, but still incredibly professional. I would 100% work with her again! Thanks Nicolette! read more

I was looking for a photographer to take newborn photos of my new baby girl. I asked around was referred to Nicolette by a friend. She came to my home to do the photo shoot after we set up a date and time. She is super sweet and comes prepared to take on a newborn, as a first time mom it was helpful and reassuring to know that she knew how to set up the shots and was comfortable handling and moving a newborn. She let me be a part of the process and include special blankets, beanies and other props to help give my photos a personal touch. She was patient with us when my baby fussed and needed to be fed or changed. I've yet to get my prints of the photos but from the digital images I've seen, I'm thrilled with the outcome and can't wait to see more and order prints. read more

Nicolette is THE BEST! I wanted to schedule a photo session for my daughter who is graduating high school and my son who is graduating 8th grade. Nicolette made the whole process so easy and worked with me as I kept asking questions. So flexible and great suggestions on locations, etc. On the actual date of the photo shoot she put my kids at ease immediately. She captured them perfectly in her photos. Amazing. She was able to create exactly what I had in mind. The kids enjoyed themselves and were so anxious to see the results. It's only been a couple of days but the images are ready! So fast and they exceeded my expectations. Nicolette is a memory maker! Cannot recommend her more highly. read more

Nicolette Moku Photography - Event Photography Near Me

I can not express how AMAZING Nicolette is! First of all, I am such a procrastinator, so it took me a while to actually get all the gears in motion to book a photography session, but every time I emailed Nicolette she responded back super quick and answered any and all of my questions. She helped us pick a location for our engagement shoot, and she is very knowledgable about different areas to help you bring your vision to life and just create amazing photos!! During our photoshoot my fiancé and I were so nervous but Nicolette made everything super fun, enjoyable and relaxing. She would go through with us on how to pose a certain way and right after taking breathtaking pictures, she allowed us to view them so we could see ourselves to one, gain a better sense of self-confidence and two, to make sure if there was some weird thing we may have done that we could see it to fix and try again! It wasn't just wonderful having her as a photographer, but she's also just an amazing person. And I think you truly get that sense about her from the moment you meet her (or in my case from the moment I first emailed her!). After the session we received our edited pictures back in less than a week and every single picture came out SO, SO beautiful. I would recommend Nicolette to anyone looking for ANY type of photography session because I can guarantee that you won't be disappointed and if you're a nervous wreck like I am about taking pictures, I promise you will have one of the best times of your life. read more

Found Nicolette on Yelp , and booked her for a Maternity photo shoot. She was very easy going and instantly made my husband and I feel comfortable. She had some great ideas and was equally interested in my suggestions for the shoot. She was very prompt in getting me pictures after the shoot , as I was in a bit of hurry to get some pictures printed for my shower the very next weekend. Would definitely recommend ! Look forward to booking her for my baby's newborn pics once he arrives. read more

Hello all this review is long over due Nicolette did a great job taking our family portraits almost a year ago; three generations worth. she was accommodating during the holidays and on the location. It was our first time taking these types of photos and she made us feel so relaxed that a few of my members of my family started giving directions on how we should pose... haha. She was easy to talk to and open to suggestions and she is also reasonably priced. read more
