I searched for hours before I found Nicole and her studio. I was ready to travel to Minneapolis or Chicago for the photographer who understood the importance of true black & white photography. Anyone snap a photo and claim it's black & white; it does NOT have the same tonal context & texture. I have gone to local photographers recommended by friends & family. I would go only to be disappointed. The obligatory poses never seemed to capture their young expressions. Also, every photographer had a different way to charge for their artistry--sessions, proofs, disks, etc. No one can match Nicole's artistic expression & professionalism. She is committed to her craft. Her studio is well-equipped. From the moment you & your family arrive until you leave -it's all about your family. Her energy, warmth, & artistry always capture the right moment. She is a click above the rest. You leave confident & happy. Secretly wishing the pics could be done in five to ten minutes just like Santa or the Easter Bunny at the mall. You remember quality & artistry takes time & patience. You get the call ---& rush to her studio and it's love at first sight. She explains her prices and it's well laid out. If you have sticker shock, remember that is on you. You are getting the work of a master photographer. These are pictures you will hang forever in your home. If the house is on fire, everyone grabs the dog and Nicole Oldenberg's pictures of the boys. Everyone who enters our home always remarks about her photos. How did she get such a great pic of his two little teeth popping up? How about that sweet baby laughter? These pictures are timeless & bring me joy. My boys didn't stay little. If you can't decide because you love them all, she'll help you. She helped me find the perfect groupings. Her eye for artistic flare helped me find the perfect frames. If you want to capture the stages of your family's life, Studio Kids Photography is our #1 top choice. read more

I won a free sitting for 2 at the Appleton Farmer's Market; not a free session like some others are stating but a free sitting. Anyway, I brought in my 3 yr old son and 5 yr old daughter so I could have pictures taken with them. I'm a single parent. Nicole was so wonderful and caring with my children! She had to chase my 3 year old a couple times in the beginning but did a fantastic job in getting him to stay in place after that. Nicole truly captured all of our personalities in her top of the notch photo's. She really took the time to make sure our pictures look wonderful and I couldn't be more please with the results. Her website shows the wonderful talent she has and I encourage you to visit her site. read more

I've used Nicole for all 4 of my kids 1yr photos from 2012 and the most recent being this month. Her work is beautiful and my children love her. I also won a free session with my first baby and it was free, I was not charged the normal session fee, and I paid for my prints, as all photographers do. I've learned the hard way that you get what you pay for with photography, and I feel she is very fairly priced and always love the images she captures. I highly recommend her and suggest you look at reviews on google and Facebook :) read more
