  • The Blog

    First let me welcome you to my blog.  My name is Mandi and I am so blessed that God has given me a talent that I can use to do what I love most.  Photography could never just be a job, because it is my passion.  Please use the link above to visit my website, but this blog wil be where I display my most recent work.  I plan to keep you updated on changes , specials, and sometimes even share my heart and thoughts.  I would hope that you will also feel the same freedom to share your hearts and thoughts through comments and emails.

    PHOTOGRAPHERS LOVE COMMENTS!

    Check out my Stuff section and read more about me and my style of photography.  I am anxiously waiting to here from you.

    Thanks,

    Mandi.

Thank You {Baton Rouge Photographer}

I just wanted to say Thank You to eveyone who supported me in 2009.  This was a new adventure for me and I have had some of the best clients.  I have met so many wonderful people and you were all so gracious to invite me into your homes and make me feel welcome.  I have enjoyed and am still enjoying watching your new precious babies grow into adorable toddlers.  Thanks for sharing your stories and helping me to capture the essence of your families.  Thanks to my brides and grooms for allowing me to participate in the celebration of one of the most important days of your life.  I have found great friendships working with you.  To the Seniors, I enjoyed your energy and excitement.  Graduation is such a exciting time and I wish you all the best in your endeavors.  To my models, I want to say thank you for your time.  You all did great jobs and were always so beautiful.  It was always a blast working with you and hopefully some of us will get to work together again someday.  Again, I want to thank all of you and am looking forward to 2010

Oh, I can’t forget to thank Pictage for the wonderful workshop I attended in November.  I was so blessed to attend such a great Conference and meet some of my most favorite photographers so early in my career. I got to work with some of the best photographers in the country and that was such a priviledge.  Thanks to all of you for your time, your tips and ideas, your workshops, and your modeling.

Thanks,

Mandi Nikole

Thought I’d add an image for fun.  This is Peter and Patricia. They modeled for me last Spring for one of my Projects.  I’ll be shooting their Wedding in June so you will be seeing them again soon.  They are great and I can’t wait til we get started on their engagements session and Tricia’s Bridals.

Kassie’s Bridals – Sneak Peek

Today I shot some bridals and the bride is going to allow me to post before the wedding.  I am so excited.  It is definitely hard to sit on bridals for months after you shoot them.  I still haven’t gotten to post her and her finace’ E-session so will only do a 1 shot sneak peek.  I had a couple of favs and here is one of them.

Sneak Peek Baby W.-Maternity Session {Baton Rouge Children Photographer}

I did this maternity session a few months ago and was saving it to blog when baby W. arrived.  We recently did his newborn session and I have included a a photo as a sneak peek.  He is so cute! I got to meet all the grandparents and photograph them all together.  M and D are so happy as you can tell from the photo of them together.  Baby W. is one of my “Watch Them Grow” babies.  I just can’t wait to see how much he grows over the next year.  It is so exciting to see them change during the different stages of their lives.  I love my job!
