What This Session Is

Whimsical Wildflower Sessions are limited experiences held in studio or at carefully chosen natural flower fields or styled floral setups, depending on the season.


These sessions are designed to feel playful, light, and full of movement. Children are encouraged to play with carefully selected props, and simply be themselves while I gently guide moments of connection and storytelling as they unfold.


The focus is not perfection—it is emotion, curiosity, and the magic of childhood.

What to Expect

Felis rhoncus turpis vitae nulla felis quis

These sessions are intentionally relaxed and child-led, allowing space for real expressions and natural joy.


There is no pressure for children to sit still or “perform.” Instead, we embrace movement, play, and imagination.


I will gently guide the session while allowing your child’s personality to lead the way—whether that means twirling through flowers, picking petals, or simply observing the world around them.


You can expect:


A playful, guided but child-led experience

Natural movement and candid storytelling moments

A whimsical, dreamy editing style

Time for exploration and comfort breaks

A session that feels like stepping into a storybook

Hey, my name is Nicole Hollenkamp

Joyful family hug outdoors during golden hour sunset.

I’m Nicole — photographer, artist, and calming presence behind the camera. I’m known for creating a relaxed, gentle experience where you can simply be yourself while I guide you into natural, flattering, and emotive portraits. My style blends romance, whimsy, and minimalism to create images that feel timeless and full of heart.


Whether I’m photographing a growing belly, a brand-new baby, or a family full of giggles, I focus on connection, kindness, and capturing the beauty you already carry.

"We had the best experience with Nicole at her Princeton studio. The sweetest soul you’ll ever meet. We did a newborn/sibling session and all of the photos were breathtaking. Nicole had a wide variety of colors, props, accessories and outfits that matched my aesthetic beautifully and made the overall experience an enjoyable one. We’ve gotten so many compliments on our photos. I can definitely see us coming back to Nicole’s studio for updated photos. 🤍"



— Sarah S, Portrait Client

Soft, neutral, or earth-toned clothing works beautifully and enhances the whimsical feel of the session. You’ll receive styling guidance before your session. I also offer a collection of clothing especially selected for my fine art sessions.

What if my child doesn’t cooperate?

That’s completely okay. These sessions are designed around movement and play, not perfection. The best images often come from the most unexpected moments.

If your session goes really well and there are just too many for me to narrow down to the set number I may have you help me narrow them down the rest of the way.
