When you work with me, I’ll make sure you feel comfortable and relaxed. (It’s not your job to be a professional model!)
We will have fun, and you can totally be yourself. If you need a litle direction because you don’t know what to do, I’ll offer posing suggestions, or give you something to do so you can focus on a task instead of the camera.
My style is authentic, timeless and artistic… I like images that are uncluttered and slightly minimalistic. I edit with true-to-life colors so the photos look vibrant and alive, and I give myself very high standards for my work because I know how important it is to the families who will treasure their photos for years to come.

I'm Naomi... I've been a photographer since 2007, and recently moved to Victoria, BC with my husband and our two boys.
Here's a bit about me if you're curious! I tend to be more on the quiet side, but not so much that I would describe myself as a "fly on the wall". I'm calm and approachable, and endlessly patient. You'll feel confident and comfortable with me because I'll give you suggestions of what to do and how to pose, so you're never left feeling awkward. I'm always there when you need me for ideas, but when you don't, I go with the flow.
I feel that my biggest strength is reading people and being sensitive to what is needed in the moment. I'll help you shine in the brightest way!
My goal is that your photos will take your breath away every time you look at them.
When I’m not working, you’ll probably still find a camera in my hand. I might be bribing my kids with ice cream so they’ll do my latest fantasy photo idea. Or I’ll be off exploring the wilderness searching for new waterfalls. I consider people photography my “work” and nature photography my hobby!
I love the wilderness, mossy trees and the smell of the forest after it rains. I’ll venture anywhere for a photo and my shoes are never too special to get dirty.
I also love cats, but can’t have them because my husband is allergic… so, bonus points if you want to include your cat in a photo!
Previously located in Marbella, Spain: 2012 – 2019 (I miss you Spain!) Currently in Victoria, BC, Canada.
