Hello, my name is

Nina!

I am so happy that you have found yourself here on my website! I am a hybrid photographer based out of eastern Pennsylvania, photographing the Northeast and beyond. My primary goal is to document your life and love in an earnest and joyful way, creating images that feel honest and transport you back in time when you look at them.

I shoot on small and medium format film, as well as with mirrorless digital cameras. The way that film is able to capture color, texture, and dimension is something that cannot totally be replicated with digital cameras. I love the way film is finite and requires intention. Digital photography however, is precise and flexible, allowing for the freedom to preserve small fleeting moments that make your gallery feel complete. I also enjoy using Super 8 video as a medium for archiving memories in a nostalgic way. I am forever evolving as a documentarian and am eager to create new connections and learn new techniques for exploring people’s lives through images—still and moving.

  • “I could go on forever about how wonderful Nina is as an event photographer. My husband and I hired her for our wedding in October 2025 and from our first interaction, to our engagement shoot, to our planning call, to our wedding, we had nothing but a pleasant and relaxed experience. She, and her husband Will who accompanied her to shoot super 8 film on our wedding day, were professional, timely, and organized, and they brought our vision for our pictures to life. They also were so fun and easy to work with and made taking even the more formal family portrait pictures a breeze. My sister hired her for her upcoming wedding, I would use her again for any future professional pictures I may need, and I would implore anyone who wants beautiful pictures for their event to hire Nina!” - Mary & Evan

  • “Working with Nina and the Film & Frond team for both our shower and wedding was one of the best choices we made throughout the entire planning process. From the very beginning, Nina’s unique eye and artistic perspective were what drew us in — and from the moment we saw her portfolio, we knew we had found the one. On the day of, Nina and her team were not only professional and organized, but also warm, calming, and so easy to be around. They captured our wedding in a way that felt effortless, timeless, and truly us. Every photo feels like a work of art, yet still authentic to the emotions of the day.” - Allie & Aram

  • “We were so happy to have Nina and Will capture our wedding! They were very communicative, punctual, professional and considerate! We wanted to work with Nina because her portfolio showed how well she documents special events. In addition, she has real artistry to offer especially in her double exposures. Nina’s planning was very organized and efficient. Her attention to detail really captured the special moments we shared and we will cherish them forever! We cannot recommend Nina enough, she is an amazing wedding photographer and you will not be disappointed!” - Toni & Matt

  • “Nina at Film and Frond did SUCH an amazing job photographing our wedding. She went above and beyond to capture posed and candid photos of our friends and family in film, digital, and Super 8 formats. She even rushed a series of highlights within a week so we could share immediately with guests and family. Her gorgeous shots will help us remember our big day forever, and we are forever thankful to her for taking such care and joy in her job. She went above and beyond in all she did that day, not to mention the tons of prep and editing time before and after. 10 out of 5 stars for the best wedding photographer in the Northeast - would recommend for any occasion!” - Chris & Alicia

  • “Both my husband and I were a little nervous about being in the front of the camera, but with Nina’s help we forgot we were being photographed at all and simply enjoyed the day. We love the photos which have been delivered, such a beautiful variety of shots in Dumbo, at Brooklyn Bridge, City Hall and in Soho. Opening our full gallery was like being back in New York, and took us right back to the magic of the day.” - Tash & Joe
