Nicole is so talented! She is a pleasure to work with and makes every photography session so comfortable. She pays attention to detail and her pictures turn out so beautiful. She recently photographed my family and I in a maternity photo shoot and I'm amazed at how they turned out. She even got my two year old to cooperate for pictures which is amazing! Thank you, Nicole! I look forward to working with you again!

I have been following Nicole Rollin Potraits and Film for years and am so glad I scheduled a maternity session with her! I felt honored to have such a talented, creative, highly experienced photographer capture my pregnancy. Nicole provides excellent details and suggestions before your session to put you at ease and of course, excited about your session! She even provided beautiful dresses for myself and my daughter.
She encouraged my husband and kids to be in the session as well and worked so well with my young kids.which is a difficult task. Not only will you love Nicole's gorgeous work.you will love her as well! I will continue to recommend her to family and friends!

My husband and I were selected by my cousin, Nicole Rollin to model for a maternity session. I was so excited to participate because this was my first pregnancy and what a special memory to treasure of my husband and I with our sweet little bundle of joy. Nicole is an amazing photographer who truly makes each and every one of her clients feel special and unique. Nicole supplied me with the most beautiful dress to wear. Nicole made my husband and I feel very comfortable throughout our session and took the time to explain the most perfect poses. Our photos turned out beautiful and I am so thankful to have such special keepsakes to look back on of one of our most happiest times of our lives.

Nicole is simply the best! We had the privelage of working with Nicole for our newborn photos and we must say that she was so wonderful with our baby girl. She not only captured beautiful photos, but was so gentle and nurturing. She was so patient when our little one was finding it hard to stay asleep during her session. Nicole makes it comfortable and easy for the baby and parents. She provides such cute outfits and accessories to chose from! From beginning to end, it was such a great experience. We cherish the photos that we have for years to come. We would highly recommend her for any of your photography needs! Thank you again Nicole!

Nicole is seriously amazing! She has photographed several big milestones in my life from my senior photos to my daughters newborn photos and most recently a mommy and me session of my 9 month old daughter and I. She is always so fun to work with and makes the whole experience relaxed and comfortable. She is super friendly and sweet and was amazing with my daughter at both ages. I highly recommend Nicole for all your baby and family photo needs! Also her studio is gorgeous!

I have had such fantastic experiences with Nicole! She has captured priceless memories of my family for maternity, newborn and milestone photographs. Her studio is so cozy (not to mention super stylish!) and the comfortable environment helps calm all my nerves about the kids smiles or my hair looking perfect - the images are exceptional every single time. Nicole is a true professional and has worked seamlessly with my children from sweet newborns to crazy crawling infants and even tough toddlers.
A vast offering of print packages, framed photos and canvas options are the cherry on top! I am so impressed with Nicole and it means so much as a mom to get professional photos done with my family, since usually I'm the one snapping them away on my phone. Would absolutely recommend Nicole Rollin Photography!
