Elopement Wedding Photographer San Francisco Bay Area
It’s very rare that someone checks every box, and exceeds expectations, but Nayza has done just that. She’s talented, artistic, expert at her craft, visionary, an excellent collaborator, and provides a supportive/safe energy space for your true self to shine through her photography. All of these characteristics translate through the final product. We’ve used her 3 times so far, each for important milestones in our lives (engagement, wedding, birthday), and couldn’t have found anyone better. Her ideas, her photography skills, her editing skills, her energy, her genuine excitement for the craft, all combine for her to produce something ethereal, something so magical, that we are forever touched by. All these years I thought I wasn’t “photogenic” but really, the person photographing me couldn’t “see” me. Nayza has the ability to do that. To bring out something special in each photo. Her photos encapsulate the not only the physical environment, but the emotions felt as well. I see our engagement and wedding photos, and immediately feel the feelings I felt on that day. And did I mention her own emotions while shooting? She’s so excited and the best “hype man” anyone could ask for. She makes us feel beautiful, and secure in knowing that she’s going to catch us in our best moment, in our best light. I could go on, but I’m hitting this website’s word limit! Just know that she hits the target every single time, and we can’t wait to use her over and over (and over) again!

Amazing!! Nayza is a dream to work with! She was our proposal/wedding photographer and I can’t say enough good things about her. She made us very comfortable when shooting and captured all the details even the littlest ones. She is very communicative and responded promptly to our emails and even took the time to take a call with us when we had some immediate questions. She was very timely to both events and very professional. Can’t recommend her enough!

We were referred to Nayza by our original photographer 2 weeks before our wedding when she let us know she would be refunding our deposit because had broken her arm. Despite this unexpected added anxiety around getting married during a pandemic, I felt instantly comfortable with Nayza when I met her over our zoom call a few days before our wedding.

Even from a safe distance, Nayza gave great directions for how she would like us to be positioned (she even gave me a much-needed pep talk when I was getting some much-unneeded grief from my parents about something).

I will definitely be asking Nayza to photograph our family again in the future.

Northern California Fine Art Engagement Photographer
Nayza is the perfect photographer to work with. My fiance and I reached out to her to take our engagement photos and we had the best time. Nayza is bright and witty, warm and incredibly talented. We also brought along our fur son, who can be a bit difficult, and she was so great about it. Nayza took photos of us in one hand and comforted our dog with the other. She is very skilled and every photo we received was nothing short of PERFECT. Just yes, everything Nayza creates is a dream.

We had a great time with Nayza. She completely understood our vision. We met her in Tahoe for our engagement shoot. Nayza was communicative the whole time and went early to scope out the location. She had so many wonderful ideas for different spots to shoot in and different poses. Even though there were other people around she made it look like it was just the two of us and our dog! We ended up having a really fun time. Once we received our photos we decided to book her immediately for our wedding!! We couldn’t have been happier with how our photos turned out and can’t wait to have her photograph our wedding.

Yosemite Fine Art Wedding Photographer
Nayza was absolutely wonderful to work with. She was professional, funny, organized, energetic, and creative. She photographed our wedding day and a private photoshoot the day after the wedding. At the wedding she kept us on schedule without causing stress or missing any shots. She captured quirky and intimate moments as well as group and landscape shots. Our wedding was small and outside so capturing the all of those details was important to us!
The private sunset photoshoot was THE BEST. We escaped into Yosemite, hiking in our wedding attire to remote little spots with breathtaking views. Nayza did an incredible job getting the right angle, lighting, and romance into each shot. We had so much fun and would absolutely recommend her to do this for you as well!
She was on time throughout the whole process even at the end to deliver the final product. Her quality of work met our expectations, and we felt we got everything we hoped for!

If we summarize our impressions after work with Nayza in one sentence, it will be something like this: “From 150 photos that we received from our photoshoot, we loved every photo” because photos are beautiful. Nayza has her unique style. Because locations were chosen very smart, she knows what she wants from a couple, so it’s easy to work with her, especially for the (shy in front of the camera) guy.

Northern California Fine Art Portrait Photographer
I loved working with Nayza from start to finish. Other quality photographers in the area were sending me complicated instructions, terms and conditions and were rather formal/commercial, while Nayza made me feel like the most valued customer from our first interaction. She was also very flexible with the dates and kindly agreed to adjust her calendar when I had a last second business trip. The main thing I enjoyed was how she works with you. Unlike other photographers I worked with back in New York, she took the time to listen to me, understand my goals and preferences without rushing through or limiting the time of our interaction. She also was not rushing through the shoot itself or limiting the time to what’s stated in the pricing. She spent as much time with me as was needed to get the best results. I honestly felt she was enjoying the process as much as (if not more than) I did. Amazing top-quality natural pictures and outstanding experience!!! Highly recommend!

Nayza, is not only one of the most talented artists I’ve met in the SF/Bay Area, but she is also a joy to work with. She takes her time, has an eye for detail, gives great direction for poses and is the type to roll up her sleeves and do whatever is necessary to get the perfect angle, lighting, and ultimately photo. I loved working with her and I can’t wait to work with her again! I wish I found her earlier!

San Francisco Bay Area Fine Art Maternity Photographer
I love working with Nayza, she turns my visions into reality. She has done both maternity photos and a couples photo shoot for me and my husband and I’m always blown away at the quality of pictures. She made me feel beautiful during my maternity shoot, and she has a unique style to her photos. It’s the best investment to make for your memories, always a pleasure working with you Nayza!

Nayza is absolutely a true artist! It is obvious that she loves what she does and she is AMAZING at it! I am a mid-size girl (size 8/10) and by no means a model, but with Nayza’s guidance and creative intuition, she made me feel and look SO gorgeous. She is very responsive and puts you at ease right away. I did an indoor session and an outdoor session because I just couldn’t choose, and I couldn’t be happier that I did both 💜. She knows many beautiful and low key/private areas that are stunning environments for her photography. Seriously LOOK NO FURTHER, you’ve found the perfect photographer. She goes above and beyond and it shows in the finished product. I am so ecstatic with the experience and the results, that I have plans to do another shoot with her💜💜💜

So it has been my first experience of a professional boudoir photoshot but OMG that was a complete click from the first sight! Nayza is absolutely incredible! Talented and super creative! Her vision helped to get high quality photos, her sense of humour and positive attitude allowed me to relax and enjoy the process and her advice made be feel like a Vogue model!!!! Thanks to Nayza I now have a piece of art on my wall and feel like a masterpiece myself! Thank you for helping me discover my inner beauty and depicting it with such a sparkle and bright colours!

Thank you, Nayza, for the beautiful photoshoot. I have been contemplating a personal portrait session for a long time, but it took me months to finds my perfect photographer. Being an ordinary person without any modeling experience photoshoot for me is somewhat intimidating. But I am so happy I came across Nayaza’s work. I was absolutely impressed by her gorgeous art. Working with her during the photoshoot was a very comfortable and calming process. Nayza helped me to open up in front of the camera and be myself. She provided guidance at every step. I love my photos so much, the result could not be better! I wish we had Nayza as our wedding photographer. Her wedding work is a piece of art!

Nayza is an outstanding professional photographer who can bare deep emotions and shroud moments with magic. If you are looking for an atmospheric photographer who cares about results, can guide and help you with truly working poses and recommendations, and with whom you can bond within minutes, then I strongly recommend Nayza! First, you will get the highest quality end-to-end experience based on her years of experience as a stylist and photographer. Secondly, she has outstanding style, an incredible sense of light, and the ability of storytelling. Just be prepared with your clothes and makeup and discuss details in advance. She will find the most intimate and magical personality inside you and will transfer it to the memorable pictures! You will enjoy this fantasy and experience as I did! It was the best photo session ever in my life! I love myself in the photos! I love the shades that she found in myself!

Nayza was awesome! I had never done a private photoshoot before and she made me feel totally comfortable. The pictures turned out amazing and my only regret is that I wish we had more time because I had a blast!
