It began with a smile
Hi, I’m Jade—a wife, boy mom, and the heart behind Jade Nikkole Photography.
For over a decade, I’ve had the honor of walking through life beside my husband, who serves in the military with strength and humility. Together, we’re raising two wild-hearted, snack-loving little boys who remind me daily how fast the seasons of childhood pass.
It’s that awareness—how fleeting these moments truly are—that led me to where I am in photography.
As both a mother and an artist, I understand the beauty in the everyday: a quiet yawn from a newborn, sand-covered toes at the beach, the way a toddler clings to your shoulder like you're their entire world. These are the moments I live for—both in front of and behind the lens.
THE STORY OF OUR LIVES
I’m proud to run my own photography studio, where I create a calm, welcoming space for families to slow down and simply be together. Whether we're shooting in my light-filled studio, at your home, or chasing golden hour on the shore, my goal is always the same: to preserve your most meaningful connections in an artful, honest way.
My style is light, airy, and full of heart—designed to live beautifully on your walls and in your hands for generations. I believe your story is worth telling, and I’m so grateful you’re considering me to tell it.
Let’s create something timeless together.
