I do not like getting my photograph taken but my website developer insisted. She recommended Diane. By the end of the session, I felt like I'd developed a new friend AND Diane had taken a lot of beautiful photos with me looking very relaxed. THANK YOU!!!

I can't say enough good things about Diane's approach to taking photos. She gets to know you and your family. She talked with us, made us laugh, encouraged us to find positions that revealed how much we care about each other - how we sat, how we looked at each other. In our case, Diane took photos at our home and in our yard -- having our home in the background of all of the photos made them even better. The photos are cherished because of the care Diane took in how she hosted this experience for us. More...

Diane Nicole Photography is by far the best photographer in town. She's professional, creative, and is a master of lighting. We will forever cherish the photos she has taken for us from maternity to newborn photos. If you have a vision or idea of a location/pose/prop she makes it come to life. She is amazing at what she does and she makes you feel comfortable and beautiful in the process. More...

We met Diane almost 5 years ago when she took our wedding photos. She captured our day in immaculate detail, and made us feel so comfortable being photographed. Since then she has done all of the photography for our family. She has done our family photos, maternity and newborn shoot, my sister’s wedding in Pennsylvania, our son’s first birthday, and most recently a family holiday mini. Her talent is unmatched, and her attention to detail and client satisfaction is impeccable. She is an absolute joy to be around, and we consider her to be part of the family. She is truly a wonderful photographer, and person. We love you, Diane! More...

Diane was amazing, I'm so happy we had her be our wedding photographer. She was very easy to communicate with, very personable and professional. I feel like we've known her forever. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, I didn't know where I wanted our first look photos and she went and scouted an amazing place for us, she helped me with the timeline of the daily events and everything. Without her our day could have been a hot mess. Our pictures turned out absolutely beautiful. I wished we lived in town so I could return to her for all of our photography needs. Thank you soooo much for everything!! More...

Diane Nicole...one of the best people and photographers you could ever find. Diane has been in my now husband and my lives since our love story began. We hired her for our wedding photos which came with engagement photos. We are both pretty awkward in front of the camera and she made everyone so comfortable and easy. She did our photos for our wedding and to say they’re always going to be timeless is an understatement. She has done our sons newborn photos which are stunning! She has also done our first Christmas photos as a family of 3 and they’re perfect. Every time we are around Diane we are laughing and having the best time. She’s understanding and will work with you on whatever your ideas are of your photos. I’m so lucky that we came across her to make that first hire and now she has become part of her family. Best photographer may I say ever! We love you Diane! More...

Hiring Diane was one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding. We met with her in her beautiful downtown studio and right away we clicked. She's hilarious! She worked around our schedule and was always quick about responding back. She did our engagement pictures. We chose the locations and were super nervous because we are not "picture people." Man thank gosh for Diane, she made us feel so comfortable and we were all three laughing the whole time. I loved that she would pose us but also captured sweet moments we'd have in between. Diane also did our wedding and came to rehearsal so she knew was to expect her tips rehearsal day was great for when we walked down the isle. My husband and I got married on a golf course, he's a golfer and I am not. She suggested for bridesmaids and Mom photos we go to the park across the street(mind you I wore converse for my wedding.) We did and man the pictures she showed me were breathtaking. She really has an eye for lighting and can capture photos with out spending hours away from guests. We are so grateful for Diane and cross our fingers that she will be our family photographer in the future. She's the best in Chico and we're lucky to now call her a friend. Thank you Diane!   12/11/2019Update! Still the best photographer in the world! She did my sisters wedding in Half Moon Bay, CA. We have now done our sons newborn photos and our first Christmas photos as a family of 3. We have the best time with her and when we get the photos back I'm always stunned. She does an amazing job capturing who you are in the photos! We love Diane, she is now a good friend and will always be a part of the family and our families photographer! More...

Diane was incredible!! Not only did our photographs turn out amazing, but Diane was super fun to work with. She put in the extra time to really get to know us and our venue in order to get the best photographs possible. She really made us feel that our wedding day was really important and worth her time! She got all the beautiful candid shots we wanted. We also requested some mountain views and she did a great job incorporating those landscape focused pictures as well. We would highly recommend Diane to be your wedding photographer! We have memories that will now truly last a life time. More...

Where do I start with Diane?! She is AWESOME. She captured our summer wedding in Lake Tahoe beautifully. The feelings of the day came through in every photo, and she produced not only beautiful portraits, but gorgeous landscape shots of the venue. It was a wild and sweeping location, and she managed to get it ALL! As my husband and I scrolled through all our photos we were amazed at how she was seemingly everywhere at once. She also made me feel comfortable in front of a camera (quite a feat) and gave us memories to last a lifetime. Hire her. More...

Diane always goes above and beyond for the perfect shot! She’s a doll to work with and is basically part of our family after years of working with her. Wedding planning comes with a lot of stress and worries, but photos weren’t one of them. We flew Diane across the county because we knew we’d get amazing photos from her. We love you Diane! More...

We couldn't have chosen a better photographer for our wedding! Not only were her pictures absolutely spectacular, but the sense of calm she brought to such a chaotic day was entirely what we needed. She was able to convince my husband and his friends to take good pictures, which no one has ever been able to do! Not only is her sense of professionalism perfection, but she also has a incredible personality. Thank you Diane for making our day extra special! More...

Diane not only did fantastic formal wedding photos, she took lots of candid photos that really captured the relationships and moments. Since then she has done all our maternity, newborn, and family portraits. Each time she just captures us, being ourselves but with an artist’s eye. She creates these amazing works of art that just happen to include us, it makes for great wall art!

Diane photographed our wedding last spring and I can't rave about her enough. The pictures turned out beautifully and she was such a pleasure to work with. She answered all of my questions leading up to the wedding, sent a detailed timeline before the wedding (to make sure we got all of the shots we wanted & family knew exactly when they were needed), scoped out all of the locations we requested ahead of time, and all around never let me feel like anything was out of control or wouldn't work out. On the day of the wedding, Diane continued to surprise me finding beautiful backdrops for our pictures in addition to the locations we originally picked out. One was even on the side of Highway 1 as we were driving back to the wedding venue. When the pictures were ready (about a month after the wedding), Diane sent us a link to a website with about 300 retouched pictures. The website was password protected and allowed us to easily share with friends and family. She also sent us a zip drive with all 700 something pictures from the wedding. Even though I'm based in the Bay Area and Diane is in Chico, she's so enthusiastic about traveling. I will definitely reach out to her for all of my photography needs in the future. More...

I met Diane when she did my engagement photo session in October of 2014, she was a lot of fun and the pictures turned out beautiful so we also booked her for our wedding. She did amazing! I couldn't have asked for a better photographer. I received compliments all day on how amazing our photographer was. She was so patient with everybody but still knew how to get people where they needed to be and get the job done. I couldn't be more happy. She's amazing as a photographer and a as a person and her prices are incredibly fair! I hope you chose her when trying to decide on a photographer for any occasion! More...

Q&As

Finding connection between me and my client is the highest importance. It is what makes a great portrait.

We need to establish what the client wants to be photograph. From there the how and why. These are all important to think about when it comes to creating incredible imagery.

I get to be creative and provide my services to anyone who is in need of them

I have always had an entreprenuer type spirit. I don’t think I would be a good employee LOL because I am a great boss! #bossmom

I have gotten incredible feedback from all my past clients. I make them feel comfortable in front of the camera, we laugh and make your sessions fun! I strongly feel that photography is something to enjoy and not be fearful over.
