Engagement Session Giveaway!

Naomi was so professional, organized, and responsive from the first email until after our wedding, and the photos we got from the day are absolutely stunning.  She really is an extremely gifted photographer and the quality of her shots was exceptional.  Naomi had so many great suggestions to take advantage of the lighting and surroundings of our venue, was quick to adapt to changes in our fast-paced day, and the candid shots of our guests and were captured beautifully.  10/10!

Colin Groves

Not only are our photos incredible but Naomi is amazing. We reached out to her when the weather prevented us from getting the pics we wanted on our wedding day and decided to try to find a photog on our honeymoon. We are from Texas and honeymooning in Canada. Naomi was so incredibly helpful listening to our vision and researched finding the perfect location. She was professional and helpful in finding the best shots and letting us just create our own vibe. Would 10/10 recommend and would not hesitate to use her services again should we find ourselves in Victoria again. Thank you so much Naomi!!

Mollie Miller

Naomi was our wedding photographer and she's been awesome! We picked her because we wanted someone who can capture really natural and candid shots that still look polished and beautiful (as opposed to only having posed pictures) and she did a fantastic job! Posing makes us feel awkward so most of the time we were just running around laughing, we barely stood still at all and somehow she still took such clear beautiful pictures. The photos we got are gorgeous and you can just feel the joy coming from them!

You will find the about page from my existing website between the “” below. You can use this section primarily for tone of voice and style as opposed to content. Make sure that all references to the self are in the first person singular, as I am the only photographer on my team. Please also ensure that there are no references to “our team” or “our photographer”. Instead, all writing should be coming directly from me. I would also like it to be quite down to earth and without lots of fluff and flowery language.

" Hi, I'm Nomi Mayaa. I'm a mom of two boys, and an optimist. (My family calls it "living in a bubble" because I don't like watching the news! But who needs all that negativity!?)
Here's a bit about me if you're curious!
I've very down-to-earth and love to meet new people. I've been fortunate enough to have travelled a fair amount, lived in Spain for 7 years, and moved back to Canada in 2019. I have a great appreciation for other cultures and other ways of life. My family comes from all over - my father is from Morocco, my mother's side is from Scotland. I have relatives from England, Spain and Israel, and my grandmother's ancestors were some of the first settlers in Victoria!
I feel that my biggest strength is reading people and being sensitive to what is needed in the moment and being adaptable to the situation I'm in.
Rather than trying to fit you into my style, and putting the same filter on every photo, I try to think of how I can add my artistic touch to your session and your uniqueness.  
My goal is that your photos will take your breath away every time you look at them!
Where do you want to go for your session? I'd love to hear about your next adventure! "
