We hired Nordica to photograph our elopement in the Italian Dolomites, and it was the best decision…read morewe ever made. In the early planning stages of our trip, Cole was responsive, helpful, and flexible. He suggested many locations that would fit the aesthetic, mood, and climate we had envisioned, and we settled on a couple of key locations.
Our wedding day began early in the morning before sunrise, and lasted all the way through the evening. It was nonstop traveling around some of the most beautiful landscapes we had ever seen, going between those planned locations but stumbling constantly onto hidden gems along the way - such as castles, lakes, and abandoned cabins - where we'd always hop out of the car and grab some quick photos before returning on our way.
Driving from location to location, we would have great conversations in the car as Cole continued to scour the view. You could see the gears in his head spinning as he eyed down the landscape, the trees, the mountains. When something special caught his eye he'd excitedly pull over to the side of the road, grab his camera, and run out of the car saying "Hold on, I'll be right back!" After a few minutes of surveying the site, he'd be back with a "Nah, no good, let's keep going," or a "This place rocks, the trees are perfect, let's go!"
There was not a single moment where he tried to wrap up early, oversell us, or put in less than 110% effort. His passion for photography was palpable, and that energy carried us through the very long and rewarding day that never stopped delivering.
When we received the photos a few weeks later, we were absolutely blown away. The moments throughout our journey were captured so vividly, it was far beyond our expectations. Aside from being an incredibly talented photographer, Cole is just a cool, relaxed guy, and he really made us feel like close friends the entire time we were together.
I can't recommend Nordica enough! You'll get stunning photos and the adventure of a lifetime.
