This gorgeous, heart-of-gold couple found me on Instagram all the way from Arizona!! (I am so grateful for the powers of socials when they bring me a couple as cool as Nicole and Kevin.) These two got married in Kevin’s hometown on the very best fall day we could have asked for. Their venue was industrial and warm, perfectly blending cool and new with the rustic beauty of the desert florals. Nikki has an incredible, unique creative eye, and watching her vision come to life so perfectly was a thing of magic. These two were so caring for each other and everyone around them which made shooting their family and friends on the dance floor a total blast. SUCH strong love in the room!!
