Capturing life’s sweetest, God-given moments
I’m here to capture life’s sweetest moments in a way that feels fun, stress-free, and meaningful for years to come. My heart is to serve you well, bring peace to the chaos, and document the God-given beauty within you and the world around us. From the candid, in-between moments to the timeless portraits your family will cherish forever, everything is captured with intention so your photos never go out of style.
Moments that feel like you
Documented with intention & heart
It’s nice to meet you, I’m Carlie!

When you work with me, you’re not getting someone who’s just checking boxes or going through the motions. I’m always watching for the moments that matter most. The belly laughs, the quiet tears, the hugs, and all the little things that can be so easy to miss.
From start to finish, my goal is for you to feel fully present and at ease, knowing everything is taken care of. Your experience deserves to feel effortless, peaceful, and intentional, and that’s exactly what I’m here to create.
Documenting life as it naturally unfolds.
A focus on real moments, genuine connection, and the quiet beauty woven throughout your story.

If you're looking for a reliable, experienced & knowledgeable, FUN, and overall amazing wedding photographer to help your big day go smoothly, Carlie is 100% your gal! Carlie did both our engagement and wedding pictures, and I couldn't imagine anyone better. She makes you feel comfortable and relaxed while giving specific instructions so you know how to pose for the pictures. I appreciated her great communication, as she quickly replied to my questions about the day-of timeline, details, etc. The photo quality is excellent and she returned our gallery soon after the wedding. I'm so grateful we picked Carlie Nicole Photography to capture all the sweet memories from our wedding day!

Carlie photographed our wedding and we cannot recommend her enough!! She answered all of our questions and provided so much helpful information throughout the process. She truly took the time to understand what we wanted and helped create a timeline that fit our day perfectly. My husband and I are very simple and wanted a stress-free wedding day, and Carlie and her second shooter made that happen. We even finished hair and makeup early and were way ahead of schedule for photos, which was a relief! They captured all of our special moments and allowed us to be us! We LOVE all of our photos and it is even so hard to pick what our favorites are. We’ll cherish them, and the memories, for the rest of our lives.
