My photoshoot experience in 10 words or less. “It was freeing- it was an opportunity to be wholly me. We all deserve a little time in front of a camera with someone else making sure we look good. And your kids deserve to have these images, too. Let them know that there is another side of you so that when they are older, they can embrace their other side.”
BECKY G.
“Today I spent the day taking pictures that I will keep forever.”
LENORE D.
“It was a really special experience and I’m glad I did it for myself. I never should have not felt worthy or waited. Everyone deserves to feel beautiful and glamorous and have a whole day of fun!”

“I might, maybe, possibly be a teeny tiny bit beautiful. One of the best things I’ve ever done for myself. Ever.”
SHARON F.
“Your gift as a photographer has a way of speaking to the soul. I was surprised that you brought me to tears with just a few words… Spending the day with Nicole and Karrie Jo is like a day with good friends. Even the camera becomes a friend! I would do it again in a heartbeat!”
ALEXA B.
“My biggest takeaway is how beautiful I truly am regardless of my size and “imperfections.” There is something so powerful in owning your beauty and believing it. People can tell you how beautiful you are all day long, but the moment you believe it yourself, that’s the best feeling. My photoshoot helped me to see it with my own eyes.”
TERE V.
“The entire process was fun, systematic and purpose driven. The shoot was filled with fun moments, great music, and learning about photography, and the process to create a beautiful image. Nicole is very professional, she guided me through every photo so I could feel and look my best, I was very comfortable during the session, laughed a great deal and had lots of fun!”
SUMMER E.
“Best photography session I’ve ever experienced! I’ve done a good amount of shoots in my life, where I left feeling self conscious and worried that I could have done better. Nicole makes you feel like a supermodel and knows how to pose you to make you look and feel absolutely gorgeous." She is THE photographer to book with for any photos you need, no matter where you’re located. Her work and creative process is worth traveling for!”
DANIELLE G.
“Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought I would take a picture like this.”
KAREN H.
“I’m obsessed. I still open up my album every day!”
JO F.
“I was just overwhelmed with beauty I didn’t know I had.”
LYNDA V.
“The day after my shoot, I saw myself completely differently…I finally saw a beautiful woman looking back at me in the mirror.”
LORI M.
“My experience with Nicole Gates Photography was absolutely amazing! Nicole took the time to meet with me, get to know me, and more importantly really listen to what I wanted my photos to visually "say." During the day of the photo session, both Nicole and KJ, made me feel comfortable in my own skin, especially when taking the boudoir photos. Words cannot convey how amazing this experience was for me. Book the appointment and experience the magic that is Nicole Gates Photography!”
