Grey Matter is a great photography company which I will definitely use again. We had an especially great experience when taking pictures with children. Nikki B. was the most professional photographer my family has used. We have young children and it can be beyond difficult to get them to sit still and smile for photos.

Thank you soooo much for our family pictures! I absolutely love them! I appreciate you traveling to us, picking out our location after I gave you my vision, you really made it come to life! You were so patient with my little ones which meant the most to me! I will be working with you again very soon as my 16 year old wants a photo shoot of his own now, lol!

I have worked with Nikki since 2016. In my national volunteer work, at The Black Professional Network, Nikki was our go to photographer and videographer to cover our events. We are never disappointed. Nikki has offered her Headshot Photography Services at our event and our members were not disappointed. She took my current (and first) professional head shots, and I couldn't be prouder of the results!

First of all I've never had a private Photoshoot before, so as a first it set the bar for others. Bring your A-game!!! Having a private appointment vs. going to a studio is too different experiences. The EXPERIENCE is what I was excited about. With my wardrobe changes, Nikki was able to bring out the professional images, the fun, and most of all kept my personality shining in both. On time, on trend, on top of it all. I can't express my gratitude and excitement any more than what came through in my pictures.
angela t.
The overall consensus from BGN members was that the headshot session was quick, painless, and even fun, thanks to the professionalism and positive energy of Nikki and her team. We would recommend Nikki Bruce to anyone looking for a talented and reliable photographer.
