Nicole Gourley Photography

We were so thankful we found Nicole! She was so quick at returning emails before booking her in and answered all of our questions leading up to the day and made us feel very comfortable. We caught up with her for a drink before our wedding and she was so lovely. We knew she would bring nothing but good vibes for our big day. :) She even helped scout a location for our first look photos out in Waipara, which was stunning! We just received our gallery and the photos are perfect, she did an incredible job, we would highly recommend Nicole to any couples.

We had the absolute pleasure of having Nicole as our wedding photographer and could not be happier with our photos. She is a true professional as she took the time before the wedding to meet with us, scope out photo locations and make sure we were aligned with the big day's timeline. The whole experience working with Nicole is so personalized and she is so generous and kind with her time and service she provides. Nicole goes above and beyond for her clients as she had sent us a wedding planner when we were based overseas and a lovely thank-you note with printed pictures + champagne following the big day. She made our whole wedding party, family and guests feel so comfortable as our photos are so "in the moment" and natural. My wife and I would highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking to capture a special day. We will forever be grateful for the amazing memories she captured to treasure forever!

We hired Nicole to take some precious family photos for us. Nicole was so easy to communicate with and really accommodating of our limited availability to have the whole family together. We were so impressed with the number of photos she sent through, how beautiful the moments she captured were, and how quickly the gallery was ready. Definitely recommend contacting Nicole to discuss any photography plans!

We met Nicole last year when we wanted some updated photos for my photo wall. She captured everything we wanted and quickly became our favorite photographer. She made us feel so relaxed and comfortable. She has now done our maternity and newborn photos and a family shoot to update our babies photos. Can't wait for her to be there to capture our little man grow up. BEST PHOTOGRAPHER IN CHRISTCHURCH!!. Cannot recommend her enough!

We loved working with Nicole right from the get go. We appreciated her attention to details from our very first meet and felt our needs were well looked after, even for the crazy idea of a mini roadie to get our engagement shoot done, she took on the adventure like a champ. Still addicted to Stranger Things after that, thanks :) When it came to our wedding day, we already had a solid plan of Nicoles involvement and she slipped into our day seamlessly and professionally. The absolute highlight of course though, is the photos she has sent us! They are of such high quality, a perfect balance between candid and proper. I love as much the lighting and colour of the photos, as the variety of moments she captured. I would highly recommend Nicole to anyone. She is worth every dollar!
