Born and raised in Ipswich, Queensland… I am a proud Goori Woman, descended from the Gumbaynggirr and Bundjalung Nations. I'm a boy Mum, married to my best friend, and find it impossibly hard to turn down baked goods.
When I'm not taking photos, I'm hanging out with my husband, son and fur-babies or smashing goals at the gym.
I love being behind the camera and capturing your stories. From weddings to family portraits, engagements or maternity, I will make sure your photos are memorable… I truly love being a part of all of those special milestones.
I am a photographer that will happily deliver a photo of you crying with laughter over a photo of you looking stiff/posed while smiling at the camera. I am a photographer who loves when the groom has to cover his face when his soon-to-be-wife reaches the aisle because the emotion of your wedding day should be remembered. I am a photographer who loves the fact that sometimes the most random and unexpected pictures become the most treasured of all. I am also a photographer who isn’t afraid to tear up during vows and speeches or pull a wacky face with you in the photo booth.
If you think we might be a good fit, or want to find out more, I’d love to hear from you!
I married the love of my life when I was 20 years young!
I am obsessed with Gilmore Girls (Lauren Graham is my spirit animal!)
My BFF and I have known each other for 16+ years
I’m a very spontaneous tattoo getter (I have even gotten one with a Bride!)
I know I can't live off green tea and chocolate but I try my best

If you are looking for someone who will understand what you want and want someone who will be able to capture exactly what you are looking for, look no further. Couldn’t recommend enough"

"I would highly recommend Nitika Rae photography. Nitika is beautiful both inside and out. She's no fuss, all our dealings with Nitika were pleasant and smooth. Nitika was on time on our special day and blended seamlessly in to the celebrations. The photos 😍 are magnificent, exactly what I described during our initial consultations. So many beautiful memories captured for us to treasure. Thank you Nitika and Jade for being part of our day. Xx"

"Nitika was amazing for our wedding. She was very professional and friendly, we hardly knew she was there during the ceremony! The very next day we had a small taster of her fabulous work. It was over before we knew it but we've got some fabulous memories. I would highly recommend Nitika as a photographer and would use her services again. I love her relaxed style, as she walked with us down the beach she took the most amazing photos. Worth every penny!"
