meeT NICOLE

WEDDING & LIFESTYLE PHOTOGRAPHER

Hi, I’m Nicole — wedding photographer, golden light enthusiast, and lover of real connection.

I’m here to capture the golden and magical moments—those sweet, unscripted glimpses that make your love story truly yours. From the quiet hand-holding before the ceremony to the confetti-filled kiss at the end of the night, I believe the best photos are the ones that feel like you: natural, warm, and full of heart.

My style is gentle, honest, and always rooted in story. I won’t make you fake anything—but I will cheer you on, fix your veil, and hype you up like a best friend with a camera. Whether you’re planning a romantic garden ceremony or an adventurous elopement, I can’t wait to be by your side, documenting all the love and laughter along the way.

Let’s make some magic together.
With love,
Nicole

my story

Hi, I’m Nicole — the girl who once dreamed of a career behind the scenes on reality TV… and found her true calling behind the lens of a camera instead.

I grew up in the beautiful lakeside town of Saugeen Shores, but after high school, I moved to Hamilton to study Television and Film. I landed a dream internship at Insight TV working on Big Brother Canada — and I was set to stay in the city and chase that path. But like so many stories in 2020, mine took a turn. The pandemic brought me back home, and unexpectedly… back to my roots.

That’s when I picked up my camera with intention, and Nicole Schlorff Photography was born. What started as a creative outlet quickly turned into a deep passion — especially for love stories. I’ve always adored weddings (thank you 27 Dresses for setting the bar high early on!). Whether it's the grand gestures or the quiet moments in between, I’m endlessly inspired by the magic that unfolds when two people say “I do.”

Now, I get to do what I love in the place that shaped me, and there’s nothing more meaningful than helping others preserve their own once-in-a-lifetime moments.

my Approach

for the golden hearts and forever moments

My approach is simple: I lead with heart, follow the light, and stay present for the moments that matter most.

I’m not here to make your day feel like a photoshoot — I’m here to capture it as it really felt. The big belly laughs, teary eyes, wind-blown kisses, and all the beautifully unscripted moments in between.

I believe in creating a space where you can be fully yourselves — messy, joyful, emotional, playful — whatever that looks like. That’s where the magic happens. And that’s what you’ll see when you look back at your photos: not just how it looked, but how it felt.
