welcome to my blogsite!

My name is Nicole and I am extremely passionate about photography.

You will find my most current work showcased here!

While fusing both my art and commercial photography background, I strive to create a timeless and unique collection of natural, spontaneous moments at weddings with style. I am a careful, unobtrusive observer, anticipating the moment and making the connection.

Born & raised in Seattle, I earned a BFA of Photography at the University of Washington. I have been shooting professionally for 10 years, but have been behind the camera for 15 years. I have loved every minute of it!

I am now based in the sunny city of Los Angeles (near Venice Beach), but I am available for travel worldwide. (I've shot weddings in Italy, Mexico, Hawaii, New York, Colorado, Michigan, all over Washington State, all over California) However, I frequently shoot in Seattle and there are no additional travel costs for those clients

When I am not behind my camera (or computer!), I .....

-  cherish time with my family & friends

-  practice power yoga

-  bike on the beach trails in SoCal

-  hike and go on long walks in my neighborhood 

-  explore hole in the wall restaurants

-  go to live concerts.

-  travel to new places. Last destination was Thailand! Check it out:      http://www.nicolegoddard.com/thailand

My motto is 'LIVE PASSIONATELY' and I live by that 100%.
