Central Coast Photographer

Hi, I’m Nicole — the photographer behind Nicole’s Captured Moments.

Based on the Central Coast, NSW, I specialise in capturing genuine moments and transforming them into timeless memories through natural, storytelling photography.

Photography has been a huge part of my life for many years, and what I love most is being able to preserve real emotions and meaningful moments that you can look back on for years to come.

Whether it's a wedding, family session, maternity shoot, live music event, or another special milestone, my goal is to create images that feel authentic, relaxed, and full of emotion.

When I'm not behind the camera, you'll usually find me exploring new creative projects, attending live music events, designing websites and graphics, or photographing the beautiful landscapes of the Central Coast.

Thank you for taking the time to visit Nicole's Captured Moments. I'd love the opportunity to capture your story and create memories you'll treasure for a lifetime.

Let's create something beautiful together.

My Story

Nicole's Captured Moments has been built on a passion for creativity, storytelling, and helping businesses and families preserve what matters most.

My journey began on 9 September 2015 when I launched my first business, Leighs Web Design, creating websites for local clients and developing my skills in web design and digital media.
As my experience grew, I expanded into other creative fields, volunteering as a Social Media Manager for a gaming news website between 2016 and 2017, where I gained valuable experience in online marketing and content creation.

In 2017, I began working as a freelance Graphic Designer, taking on branding and design projects while continuing to grow my business. On 9 August 2017, I rebranded to Nicole's Captured Moments, marking the beginning of my photography journey and combining my love of design with my passion for capturing genuine moments through the camera.

Over the years, I've been fortunate to work with a variety of businesses and organisations.
From 2019 to 2021, I worked as an Advertising Digital Designer for a Sydney property management company.

Between 2020 and 2022, I joined JC Entertainment & Events as a live music event photographer, photographing concerts, festivals, and performances.

From 2023 to 2026, I worked as a Website Content Manager for a boutique store in Bombala, managing website content, product listings, and digital updates.

Today, more than 10 years later, Nicole's Captured Moments continues to grow. What started as a web design business has evolved into a creative studio offering photography, graphic design, website design, social media management, and digital marketing.

Whether I'm capturing life's biggest milestones or helping businesses build their online presence, my goal has always remained the same—to create work that tells a story and leaves a lasting impression.
