DOCUMENTING YOUR
LOVE WITH intention
Nikki Baker, a Southwestern US based artist goes global as a documentary + editorial style photographer. To tell your love story by creating TIMELESS, EMOTIVE & CINEMATIC imagery.
Where intentional creativity meets real, raw moments
At the intersection of beautiful chaos and artfully crafted moments, Nikki Baker Photography elevates the wedding day experience with her approach which seamlessly blends documentary and editorial photography—two seemingly opposite styles. But what truly sets her apart is her client-centered philosophy. “At the end of the day, how my clients feel about the photos is what matters the most to me.” Even the most camera-shy individuals feel at ease in front of her lens.
Nikki Baker Photography has been featured nationally in three well-loved wedding blogs, with more exciting publications on the horizon. She was also interviewed on the TODAY Show for their exposé on one of the leading bridal trends, the anti-bride movement—a trend always in the mix of trends, is well known for pushing boundaries, challenging traditional bridal norms, and encouraging couples to find unique ways to express themselves on their wedding day.
Her clients have raved about their own experiences: “When I hired Nikki, I knew I had nothing to worry about.” - the Mireleses “The photos are absolutely everything we dreamed of and more. I can't thank (her) enough for capturing it so beautifully. Thank you for making such a special moment even more memorable.” - Lauren & Gabby. Are some of the many quotes she has received from past clients.
From coast to coast and beyond the United States, her work transcends borders. Her eye for Emotive, cinematic, and artful, imagery follows her wherever she’s needed.

MEET NIKKI
Hey there. My name is Nicolette Baker, but you can call me Nikki. I’m a desert grown, tequila loving, globe trotting dog-mom. I am married to my high school sweetheart (it’s disgustingly cute, I know). We currently live in the pit-stop town of Yuma, Arizona where I spend a lot of time reading, “training for that marathon”, and going on mini getaways with my husband.
This has always been more than a career to me. Photography has always been a way for me to show people I love them, create beautiful art and keep precious memories forever.
Doing the same thing for other people just makes sense. 6 years later, here we are.

The Art of Posing Volume One is the beginning of a long series I’m calling “The Art Of” where we will dive deeper in to learning more techniques and skills that will build your Documentary and Editorial Photographer “tool box”. I believe posing can be fluid and not as stiff as it has been labeled.
For Volume one we are in the studio with Macayla and Manny as we go through a series of poses with the goal of perfecting each one.
The digital guide includes: step by step direction to get to each pose using “subjects” for a more fluid way to pose, alterations I would make for different scenarios and even some light prompting to create a more natural way to pose.
This guide is not only for photographers but for anyone who wants to find more guidance when they are in front of a camera.
