let’s make magic.

meet, nicole.

Hi, I’m Nicole Ivanov! I’m a wedding and engagement photographer with a passion for capturing love stories worldwide. Originally from Detroit, Michigan, I took a leap of faith and moved to Los Angeles in 2016 to pursue my dream of building a photography career along the West Coast. After spending 10 incredible years in LA, I recently relocated to Nashville, Tennessee, but I’ll always consider myself bicoastal, splitting my time between LA and Nashville while traveling wherever love takes me.

My work has taken me across the globe, photographing couples in breathtaking destinations and immersing myself in diverse cultures and love stories. I am honored to have been internationally published, with features in Vogue, Vogue Australia, Vogue Spain, Over The Moon, The Knot, People Magazine, and many other noteworthy publications. Whether shooting an intimate wedding in Italy, a southern celebration in Tennessee, or a classic California wedding, my approach remains the same—capturing timeless, candid moments that bring you back to the magic of your day.

Beyond photography, I’m also a wife and a mom, roles that have deepened my appreciation for love, family, and the moments that truly matter.

I also offer mentorship sessions for photographers looking to elevate their craft and build their business. If you're interested in learning from my journey, let’s connect!

I can't wait to tell your story.
