Atlanta Lifestyle Photographer
I'm Nina and I would love to take your picture...
I am a Professional in Atlanta Lifestyle Photography, a mom, travel addict, and a sucker for delicious european chocolate
My love for photography was born early, but moving around the globe never allowed it to be my career. And maybe I wasn't brave enough to give it a chance!
What changed my mind in 2020 was that I wanted to be able to give other BUSY families the gift of documenting their LOVE for each other on a professional level and creating beautiful Wall Art, just like I did for myself.
(Nobody should print a selfie!!!)
What else?
I totally dislike pens that don't write, public whistling (if it is not coming from my handsome husband) and flight delays.
I love exploring new cities and practicing hospitality (mostly with a glass of Sauvignon Blanc in my hand).
More?
Denim is a favorite, my family and I moved to Atlanta in 2017 from Toronto, and I am working hard to get my daily workout in (mostly cardio #10000steps)
So nice to meet you!
What I believe...
I am a believer in the little In-between moments that define us.
I know, most of us live for those big Milestone moments, but if you look back and ask yourself, It's the small beautiful moments that we remember for a lifetime.
The day your baby said mommy for the first time or took his first step. When your toddler woke up to a dry bed without wearing diapers.
That toothless smile or the last summer as a playful child in Middle school with a broken arm. Every little moment deserves to be documented but the most memorable ones are the imperfect storytelling moments that last forever.
And because kids change a lot within one year, I recommend documenting your family's story at least once a year. When you start doing it you will start noticing all the major changes that happen in only a year.
You deserve beautiful photos of your family!
My approach...
The way I work is definitely not complicated. My goal is to make it as easy as possible.
I know that you are busy and so am I.
Those little imperfect MOMENTS...

DOCUMENTING REAL LIFE
With me, you’ll receive a genuine representation of the way you do life.
My style mixes gentle prompts with candid and free moments to capture your family through visual storytelling.
-
PERFECTION IS OVERRATED
The mainstream route says to document “perfect” moments and in doing so, I believe we get further and further from the beauty of reality. It becomes curated. So instead, we’ll kick it back with a stress-free, down-to-earth session that is real and not ever forced.

I HOLD SPACE FOR YOU AS YOU ARE
I’ve said it and I’ll say it again. I want the unabashed, unreserved, and unpolished version of you. It’s about time we honor the way you actually spend most of your days, and who you spend them with. All people, pets, and families are welcome here.
My Why...
SUPPORTER OF FAMILIES, SMALL BUSINESSES, AND THE COMMUNITY
For a few years now, I donate my services to a few selected foundations that collect money for a cause that is close to my heart.
As an example ESP (www.espyouandme.org) is an organization that supports kids with disabilities and every year at their BIG HEARTS GALA they put those kids front and center on stage with a talent show. Amazing people and I am proud to be able to help this organization.
As a family, we volunteer for SOUTHEASTERN GUIDE DOGS (www.guidedogs.org) and already raised 4 puppies for them. What a wonderful experience as a family.
My Promise...
I WILL TREAT EVERYONE WITH KINDNESS AND RESPECT
Kindness and compassion drive the way I interact with my clients, partners, and those whose paths cross mine. I promise to respect you for the unique individual that you are. My images will honor your individuality and I will show my respect by helping you hold your space and not altering it for a perceived creative gain in the image.
Some of my favorite things:
2. GIVE ME PASTA EVERY NIGHT AND I AM HAPPY
I know, I know carbs, but is there anything better, when combined with a good glass of wine?
4. EXPLORING NEW PLACES
"Travel is the only thing you buy that makes YOU richer."
I never get tired of new destinations, it always inspires me and sets my creative soul on fire.
1. BAREFOOT ON THE BEACH
It just makes me feel so alive and gets me ready for the next big adventure!
3. JUMPING ON A TRAMPOLINE WITH MY KIDS FREES MY MIND
We love to have fun together and sometimes that means spending 2 hours at Sky Zone and to flip around. We also love going to the movies...
5. PISTACHIO ICE CREAM MADE IN ITALY
I heard people say "Ugh, gross."but for me Pistachio ice cream is the ultimate invention.
