She is best photographer. She did my maternity shoot, daughter’s newborn session and her smash cake session. We absolutely love her work. She is the baby whisperer.

Kira made my son feel comfortable the moment she met him. I cannot believe the number of smiles she got from him and how easy the whole process was! I never thought he would pose so effortlessly- but that’s due to Kira’s amazing talents! More...

We had the most wonderful experience with Kira! She is truly the queen of baby whisperers. I have a very temperamental 2 week old, and Kira was able to settle her and capture the most gorgeous images that made me tear up! Kira never backed down to the challenge and handled my little one with so much patience and professionalism. Not too mention she is super responsive and always there to answer any questions you may have along the ways Seriously, don’t think twice and just book! You will be so thankful, and so happy with the images! More...

Our experience with Kira was the best! We had newborn photos done one week after our sons birthday and she was fantastic. She was very organized, professional and had everything she needed to get the photos done at our house without any issues and the process was very enjoyable . She was a professional with dealing with our son and the pictures turned out amazing and will be something we cherish forever. Also, her process prior to our session was easy to understand and her website/client portal are super easy to use and great quality. I definitely recommend her photography services! More...

Nicole has taken our pictures at least three times now and we truly couldn't be happier. From pictures of our daughter to family pictures to this last time helping us include our foster son; she always get the most beautiful and sweet shots. And to top it all off it, it is always a good time. She makes sure to take the time to get the kiddos to warm up to her and makes it fun for all. We also love the sneak peeks and then the blog posts... it makes waiting for that gallery a little easier ;-) We will continue using Rare Vision Photography for all our family photo needs!!! More...

Kira did our maternity shoot and we have amazing photos! She was always quick with responses and answered all questions I had. She was very accommodating when it came to meeting because we had our heart set on an outdoor shoot, but it kept raining. She met with us during a holiday! We received the proofs and final photos promptly too!! More...

Nicole's presence was calming, she was considerate, flexible, talented, and most of all amazing. Her photos show her passion and love for her families she works with. She brought goodies for the kids, and she made us feel like our moment was just as important to her as it was to us. She made the experience delightful. I will be using her again!! More...

Nicole is wonderful! She has photographed my family for 3 1/2 years now. She does great work and is always open to my crazy ideas (such as doing an outdoor maternity shoot in January in Missouri! ) She always seems to get that "perfect picture" no matter how terrible I feel like my kids are acting. I look forward to many more shoots with her. I highly recommend!!! More...

What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
I think the secret to taking a great photograph is not putting down the camera during the "downtime" but capturing those real and candid moments between.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
Are you attracted to black and white or color images?
Do you like candid or more posed images?
Do you like rustic or urban environments?
What do you love most about your job?
What lights me up about my job is being able to capture my clients story in a personal and candid way.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Since I was little, I always thought it was cool that people would work for themselves. After being in the corporate world, I wanted the ability to stay home with my children but also work and my husband suggested I use my photography skills to create my business.
Why should our clients choose you?
I am personable and love creating a relationship with my clients. I provide prep guides to my clients and deliver galleries within two weeks of the session.
Family Session
Choose a special location where your family feels comfortable and let me snap away. I provide prompts and interaction to make each photo look flawless and not stiff.
I include a selection of candid, posed and detail images in your final online gallery that the client downloads digital images. Clients also have the ability to purchase prints via professional printer.
Extended Family Session
A family session on steroids! Include all the aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents into a lovely session. Includes large group photos plus individual family groups.
Special photos like grandkids with grandparents, kids and parents, siblings, cousin photos are definitely included!
Lifestyle Session
Lifestyle photography is a passion of mine! I am extremely joyful when a client welcomes me into their home to be a fly on the wall or participate in an exciting moment.
Whether it’s an adoption proceeding, a special celebration, military homecoming or just hanging out at home, these sessions are anything but ordinary and give a wonderful opportunity to showcase your family.
Personal Branding Session
As a photographer and business owner, I enjoy working alongside other owners to provide stunning and professional images to use for your marketing and create your personal brand image that stands out. Stop spending countless hours to take photos when you can use that precious time doing more things for your business or have extra personal time.
Newborn Lifestyle Session
Expect your newborn photography experience to be easy, relaxed and fun. Held in your home, my goal with each session is to make things as seamless as possible on you. It's your job to relax while I turn portions of your home into a studio. Includes portrait images of baby as well as moments captured with parents, siblings (including furry if desired) throughout the home.
Maternity Session
Capture those baby bumps and glow before your baby arrives in a one hour session.
Birth Photography
On call before delivery, I will capture all the details and moments leading up, during and after your delivery of you precious baby.
Milestone Moments - Children
Once you’ve welcomed your bundle of joy, your entire world will change. Most of my clients want to capture special milestones that their baby has. I love photographing these stages as the baby develops and grows. Most milestone sessions occur at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months. I’ve put together a milestone collection that includes three of these milestones.
Fresh 48 Session
Held at the birth location, this session is all about those first moments after the birth of your baby.
