Preserving your memories. Bringing back your feelings
There are moments in life that change us forever.The beginning of a marriage is one of them.
As we step into a new chapter, we naturally want to hold onto every part of it—not only in our memories, but somewhere we can return to years later. A place where we can relive the laughter, the joyful tears, the quiet embraces, and the overwhelming feeling of being surrounded by the people we love most.
Because memories may fade, but the emotions behind them deserve to live on. That is what I believe photography should do.
Not simply document what happened, but bring you back to what you felt.

Hi, I’m Nia.
I’m a wedding photographer based in Richmond, Virginia, and for over five years I’ve had the privilege of documenting love stories with honesty, intention, and heart.
As a mother, I’ve learned to cherish the beauty of life’s fleeting moments, and I believe that has made me a more compassionate and emotional storyteller. I genuinely love connecting with people because every couple has a unique story worth telling.
know my work, Moments That Speak

Nia was professional and friendly. She took beautiful pictures of our family effortlessly. Her work is intentional and graceful. We are very happy with the results. I would love to work with her again!

I am a venue owner and a client of Nia’s. I have had the pleasure of watching her photograph brides, styled shoots, boudoir as well as family photos. She has even taken professional photos of the indoor and outdoor spaces at our venue for marketing purposes and they were fantastic. She really does it all! She is very easy to work with and truly loves what she does! Her talent behind the lens shines through in her work! I highly recommend her for any type of photography!
Sarah Taylor Owner Historic Whitewood Venue
I have had the opportunity to work with Nia on two occasions, and I must say she is so great! She is very friendly and polite, yet gets in there and instructs you on what she needs you to do to get the shot. She also does not hesitate to collaborate to come up with ideas and concepts to convey the message the right way. She also does not mind spending time just talking and getting to know you as a person and friend. Her work is amazing as well! Some of the shots she has gotten on our projects have been amazing! Don't hesitate to have Nia work with you on your special project/event!
Paul Hearn
Nia is a perfect person to work with. You will give her the idea of what you want and she will make it work. Have worked many times with her and I will continue to do it. Thank you for the amazing pictures!

Joanna Tannenbaum
Working with Nia was amazing! She’s truly a professional that knows how to find the best angle/lighting/photo. She helped make (what can be) an awkward experience, alone in front of a camera, an enjoyable time and the results were astounding. A++++ These photos will be all over our website!
Jonathan Dally
Nia is so warm and joyful, she made my whole family feel comfortable immediately. Our photos from our mini Mother’s Day session are just beautiful; the lighting, editing, and composition are lovely.
Cam Conrad
Nia does a wonderful job with any kind of photo request you may have. She is professional, on time and friendly. I’ll be calling her every time.
Ravi Patel
Nia came highly recommended, and I see why. She is professional, friendly, and incredible at getting the perfect shots. We were so happy with the photos and recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer. Bonus, she’s amazing with children!
Elizabeth NicoliSuco
Nia was absolutely incredible with my two boys. I highly recommend her and will use her services again. The photos were beautiful, and were edited & sent to me in a timely manner. I didn’t have high expectations because one of my sons doesn’t love being photographed, but she took her time with him and made it playful and fun for him. I couldn’t believe how stunning the photos came out. I will cherish them forever!!
