love
Ready to scale the side of a mountain for a beautiful adventure? I'm so down!
Prefer cozying up at home on the couch and shoving cookie dough in your partners face?Let's dot it!
I'm here to tell your perfectly imperfect love story no matter what that looks like. While I'm always there to guide you through some prompts and adjust a little, the best sessions are always the ones where you can just be you. And I'll be there to help you freeze those moments to look back on forever.

If you've been holding back on taking family photos because your kids are too wild or your husband doesn't want to go fake smile for an hour, PLEASE do yourself a favor and shoot me a message. Family sessions always produce the biggest, most authentic smiles and candid photos because there is no love and happiness in the world like being together. 9/10 moms leave my sessions apologizing because they think their kids didn't participate. But you know what? The galleries show their kids giggling through the fields, running into dad's arms, sharing the nature they found. That's the real stuff. That's what deserves to hang on the wall.
Hi there!
I'm Nicole Kotsios, a San Diego based photographer.
I'm "Mama" to the smartest 7 year old around, the sassiest 1 year old you'll ever meet, and a fluff ball of a corgi. You can usually catch me working on my latest DIY project, at the zoo, or wrangling my crazy family into our next spontaneous adventure.
I'm always on the move, but that's why I started this whole photography path! Of course I love a good wedding or Christmas card, but my favorite thing in the world is capturing the in between stuff. The babies getting way too excited over bubbles, splashing through the waves during sunset with the love of your life after you tie the knot, or dancing through a feild of flowers with your littles while they are still in awe of them.
​
All the moments, big or small, are so dang important! So whatever it is you want to remember, I'll be right there with you capturing it all and cheering you on all the way.
