Sarah + Tom – Ski Engagement Shoot – Nicole Polk

Every time I meet with a couple and we talk about the engagement session, I always throw out little ideas I have – bowling, rides, snowboarding, etc.. for their session.  I got so excited when Sarah told me that she and Tom wanted to do their engagement session on skis!  Funny enough, we actually had...

Mazzy – Santa Barbara Portraits – Nicole Polk

While on my way home from photographing an engagement session in Santa Barbara, I was delayed at the Santa Barbara airport.  With nothing to do, I decided to hang out right in front of the airport.  It’s this tiny little building with some grass and a couple trees out front.  So, I plopped myself under...

the evolution of me – Nicole Polk

So, today (January 25th) is my 30th birthday and it has me reflecting on the life I’ve lived so far and the life I want to live from here on out.  This self reflection is not spurred solely on the idea of entering my thirties, it’s been an ongoing project of mine for some time,...

Christian (+ Otto) – Philadelphia portrait photographer – Nicole Polk

I got to photograph this little guy and his beautiful companion this fall right in his beautiful backyard.  Christian is a rough and tough boy through and through, more content to play with sticks than toys, we had a ball traipsing around the wooded yard.  I can’t wait to photograph him again when he rides...

Brett + Lisa – Philadelphia Engagement Photography – Nicole Polk

I’ve known Brett since I was about 6 years old.  We grew up across the street from each other, neighbors as long as I can remember.  We never knew each other well, he was ahead of me in school, but always said hello and chatted outside at our cars for a few minutes here and...

Bucks County Realtor - Love the black and white frame of the gentlemen with the suspenders. Looks like an instant classic. Wonderful shots!

Logan – Philadelphia Newborn Photography – Nicole Polk

Introducing…Logan Cole…my nephew!  Zach’s sister, Corinne, had this little guy a wee bit early, but he is nice and strong and healthy!  Logan definitely likes to be bundled up, very appropriate for a winter baby shoot!  I had a lot of fun with some new props.  It was so nice to spend some time getting...

My Neighbors, take 3 or 4! Philadelphia Children’s Photographer – Nicole Polk

I’ve been taking images of my neighbors’ children for what seems like forever already!  It’s so fun to look back at their old shoots and see how much they have grown and changed in just a few short years.  You can see here they have always kept me on my toes and this shoot was...

Erin + Waiel – Philadelphia engagement photography – Nicole Polk

I’m slowly, but surely getting caught up on blog postings!  Erin + Waiel were such good sports for their e-session.  We must have had the shoot on one of the hottest days of summer, but we didn’t let the heat stop us from a great session.  I probably looked a little worse for the wear...

Alyson + Shane – Bucks County Wedding – Nicole Polk

Alyson + Shane had a wonderfully intimate ceremony at the Joseph Ambler Inn this summer.  You may remember them from their Italian Market e session.  Much like myself and Zach, these two have been together for forever!  Though it seems like they can’t remember what life was like before they met, there was absolutely no...

Amy + Josh – Loews Hotel wedding – Nicole Polk

So, I’m finally starting to blog some weddings from this season.  This whole summer has seemed to revolve around portraits on the blog!  Amy and Josh were married at the spectacular Masonic Temple in Philadelphia.  I think this place is one of Philly’s best kept secrets for both weddings and architecture!  The place was amazing. ...
