Blair Nicole Photography bio picture

  • Welcome to my blog!

    Hi! My name is Blair and I am a wedding and portrait photographer! I am married to an amazing man, and we have the sweetest little boy ever! My blog will show a little bit of the love I have for my family, and a whole lot of my photography - and I hope my love for my clients shines brightly through those photos too!

    I am based out of Southern California, but absolutely love to travel for weddings everywhere! I love becoming good friends with our clients; watching their love blossom, their families grow, capturing those fun and intimate moments in their life... and of course, having a blast doing it all along the way.

My brand new blog and some fun blog features!

Hi friends! So here we are….my very first post on my brand new blog! (the posts below this one were imported from the old blog).  I have to say that it has been a very long time coming, and I am so excited to finally have my very own little piece of internet that really feels like “me”. I have had my old blog for about 5 years, and the upgrade was very needed, and way past due! But I just appreciate it that much more after waiting so long for it!;)Now I just have to get around to doing a little facelift to my actual web site, and all of my fun printed materials to get it all matchy and beautiful. But for now, you get to enjoy this fun little blog eye candy!:)

I had SO been looking forward to my blog having all the fun pages that it does now. I love that there are menus to share my Pinterest boards, and to easily hop on over to our Facebook page. As well as all of the other various pages that are just fun to browse through!:)

Other than the new blog, there have been a few other exciting things going on over here during the slower wedding months….I have been photographing lots of beautiful boudoir sessions for our 2012 brides (so I can’t share any of those photos just yet….wouldn’t want to spoil the surprise for their soon to be hubbies), and some other fun portrait sessions! I also have been featured on some really fun blogs lately!

Here are some of the fabulous blogs we have been featured on recently:

 

Stephanie and Louie on Rusic Wedding Chic

 

Janelle & Tommy on Smitten Magazine

 

Ally & Mark on Emmaline Bride and I Love Farm Weddings

 

To see more of the great blogs our clients have been featured on , you can click on over to our “Features and publications” page from the Info pull down menu above!:)

Orange County Maternity Photographer – {Destiny – Expecting!}

Can I just start off by saying I much I just loved this sweet maternity session!? Everything about it was right up my alley and just a dream to photograph! So needless to say, I am super excited to share these with you!:)
Destiny and her hubby are about ready to welcome her first baby Willow into their little family, and I was so delighted to photograph her! Destiny and I went to high school together and hadden’t seen each other since we graduated, so I had a fantastic time walking around with her (and her sweet pup Sophie), and catching up. Destiny is just such a beautiful lady on the inside and out!
Destiny, I hope you enjoy your preview – and I just can’t wait to photograph precious little Willow when she arrives!:)
See what I mean?! Destiny is just gorgeous!!

Whittier Wedding Photography – { Christy & Ben : Married! }

I was so excited to capture the love of Christy & Ben on their big day! And my old friend made such a beautiful bride! We felt pretty lucky to be the ones to photograph their  ceremony and portraits!:)

Christy and Ben definitely had one of the biggest bridal parties we have photographed so far, and it was SO fun! Christy and I go way back, so it was pretty cool that 3 of my other fun girlfriends were in the bridal party too!:)

The moment that we started taking Christy & Ben’s portraits, the clouds gave out on us and it really started to rain! But we worked quickly got in a few portraits as fast as we could!:)

As we were heading back to the car to get out of the rain I snagged these last few shots along the Long Beach harbor, and they are some of my very favorites of the day!:)

Our very last shot of the day, before everyone got tucked away into their warm dry cars:)

The wedding day team:

Photographers : Us! Blair Nicole Photography
The brides beautiful hair and make up: Hair by Dottie
Videographer: Unlimited Thought Productions
Ceremony location: St. Gregory The Great Catholic Church
Portrait location: The Long Beach Lighthouse / Shoreline Aquatic Park

Claremont Engagement Photography – { Brittney and Seth : Engaged! }

A few weeks ago I got to head out to Claremont to hang out with Brittney and Seth for their engagement portraits! The day was pretty rainy and super chilly, but we thought we would give it a go anyway, and I am SO glad we did! (despite me ending up in urgent care the following day;)). 
The cloudy day made for some lovely light for this super sweet couple, and I loved that we had to pull out the umbrellas every once in a while. I had so much fun checking our their home town where they both grew up, met in school and fell in love.:)
Brittney and Seth, I hope you enjoy your preview! We can’t wait for your big day!:)
Brittney, didn’t I tell you that you would look amazing in pictures!? Yup, you do! 
You are crazy for thinking for a second otherwise!:)

Oh how I loved all of these sweet cuddles in the rain!:)
