Nadine Photography

TLDR: Nadine is incredible sweet, will put you right at ease, and then take photos that capture you and your family at your best. Her work is beautiful, she’s incredibly pleasant to work with, and in my two experiences, her turn around time was really amazing.
Long version: Nadine photographed my wedding in 2012 and the pictures were all beautiful. My husband and I hadn’t ever been professionally photographed before, but Nadine was able to help us get comfortable in front of the camera without looking posed.
When I had a baby a few months ago I e-​mailed her to ask if she could photograph our little family in our home and she was all about it. She was very flexible with dates even though it was around the Thanksgiving-​Christmas holiday time, and told me that she could re-​schedule if baby ended up coming early or late. She’s a momma, too, and appreciated how important it was to get shots of those early days with baby.
«Beautiful» isn’t a good enough word to describe the photos she took of us. I was two weeks postpartum, a notoriously unattractive time in a woman’s life, but Nadine captured us as we were and I absolutely love all the shots she took.
Any time I ever need a photographer, I’m only calling Nadine!

TLDR; Nadine is amazing, talented, accommodating and her work is beyond what I could have wished for on my wedding day! You will be fortunate if you get the chance to see her in action and won’t regret the decision to work with her.
Long Version;
Our original photographer had complications and canceled on us less than 4 weeks away from the wedding date, I was worried I wouldn’t be able to find someone in time. Luckily, I found Nadine from a Unilocal search and contacted her right away from all the awesome reviews… I was not disappointed, not only was she available for the day we needed her, but she worked within my very limited budget and made sure she knew exactly what I was looking for.
Just about everything that could go wrong, did as far as my wedding was concerned — it was originally supposed to be outdoors at Zilker Park, but of course it rained ALL WEEK and the site was completely flooded and muddy so with just 48 hours left before the wedding day we had to move our location to a friend’s home nearly 40 miles away from Zilker.
Nadine didn’t complain or charge us anything extra to move to a new location, she just showed up and gave us an amazing experience. In just two hours, she was able to capture well over 200 pictures that truly captured the emotions and atmosphere of the wedding.
Once we were done, she let us know the final pictures would be ready in 6 to 8 weeks and though I don’t know if that’s very long or short for turnaround, it was 100% worth the wait — these images are absolutely stunning! Nadine, thank you so much for everything.

I got married last April here in Austin. We were slackers getting all of our vendors booked and were getting apprehensive when the wedding was just a couple months away and we hadn’t booked a photographer yet. We stumbled upon Nadine Photography and totally lucked out that she wasn’t booked yet for our wedding day. We didn’t have to settle at all!
She captured great shots of us, our family (for the posed fam shots we wanted) and wonderful candid shots of our friends and guests at the reception. Things looked prettier in her shots than I think they might’ve in real life! She has an eye, and a very nice personality to match. I was put at ease, and she could roll with my relaxed mood. It felt like having another friend around, so I was super comfortable.
We love our pictures and we loved our experience. Thanks Nadine!

I can’t say enough good things about Nadine’s work. Just go to her website and you’ll see exactly what I mean! She shot my wedding in November, and neither my husband nor I wanted very many posed pictures. She was excellent at helping us get a few family pictures done super quickly, and then documenting the rest of the night with candid shots that are superb. Her assistant that worked with her was phenomenal as well! You will wait a little longer than you would for some photographers to get pictures back, but that’s all in the contract so you’ll have a timeframe up front. (It’s not long, just about two months instead of a few weeks) Hire this phenomenally talented woman!

I can’t say enough amazing things about Nadine! She is extremely talented, professional, friendly, and super fun to work with. Nadine shot our engagement photos, my bridal portraits, and our wedding, and I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way. I usually avoid cameras like the plague, but Nadine made me feel comfortable and made taking our engagement photos and my bridal portraits fun! Our wedding pictures were stunning, and she was able to capture such candid, sweet moments. Her work is absolutely breathtaking, and she is a true photography ninja.

I had seen Nadine’s work online and was really impressed. If I was going to invest in a photographer, it was going to be a good one. When my husband and I met Nadine we were not only impressed by her work but loved her personality. She is sweet and funny and we meshed well together. She took our engagement pictures, my bridal portraits, and our October 2013 wedding pictures. On the wedding day, Nadine helped me keep calm and helped me laugh off some nerves and it was great we already had some history. My family loved Nadine and can’t wait to see our pictures. We were truly blessed to have found Nadine. Pictures are the only things you’re going to have left after the wedding is over to it’s important to invest in a good photographer. We are so glad we invested in Nadine! Thank you for everything! Nubia Lemons

I booked Nadine for a boudoir shoot this Spring. Her professionalism provided a level of comfort and trust needed to make the session successful. Nadine’s talented eye and knack for timing was made apparent by the order in which she did the shoot — she scouted our location for optimum lighting, which resulted in beautiful pictures! Her work is playful, but it also speaks to the occasion. Nadine is full of ideas to bring out personality in her photographs. I highly recommend her services if you want pictures that will stand out among traditional portraits.

From start to finish, working with Nadine was a dream.
I got married in October and Nadine agreed to photograph our wedding. I wasn’t looking for the traditional posed photos — I wanted more of a photo-​journalistic style — someone who could capture all of the unplanned special moments, and that is exactly what she did. There are details that she captured that I totally missed the day of our wedding, and I can’t thank her enough for it.
She was great at organizing people and getting them to focus for few posed photos we did. And her experience photographing dancers paid of during our wild dance party — and while capturing a shot, she’d also dance around the guests making everyone feel uninterrupted.
Again, I can’t say enough about her — fairly priced, so much fun, and beautiful photos. Do yourself a favor and have her shoot your wedding.

Full disclosure: I was a bridesmaid in a wedding last March covered by Nadine, but I had already been a fan of Nadine’s work, which I’d discovered through a photographer friend. And I’m also a huge wedding fan, just in general — I’ve been married for almost 7 years, and am still trying to wean my (4-​year) wedding blog obsession. A-​hem. With that being said, I seriously *loved* how my friend’s wedding photos turned out — from the sampling I’ve seen on Nadine’s blog & facebook page, she completely captured exactly how I hope my friends will remember their day, and her photos absolutely cover the beauty of all their hard work and — most importantly — their love! I know, cheezball, but what can I say, it is too true :)
