For Rob and I, there was no better investment to our wedding day than to hire Nomo Akisawa as our professional photographer. She is magic!

Her style captures light so gently and with an indisputable ease of elegance. Her creative eye found each detail of our looks that we loved so much, and her editing showcased these details with class. She ensured we had ample pictures of our sweet baby girl to treasure, while candidly catching the sneak peak moments of love between Rob and I. She captured our guests looking their finest while remaining unobtrusive to the flow of our day and ongoing conversations. In essence, Nomo felt like a guest, a friend, celebrating our happiest day and kindly recording the moments for us through her lens.

Nomo’s love for her art and true excitement at our wedding celebration was evident, and when we sat down to look at the pictures for the first time, we were amazed at how each shot reflected another well-captured moment of our day. We are ever so grateful. Thank you, Nomo.

When we were searching for a wedding photographer, we stumbled upon Simply Sweet Photography and fell in love with Nomo's work. It got even better when we met her in person. She was incredibly friendly and warm and we instantly felt as if we had always been friends. We both knew that we had found our photographer. When we took our engagement photos, what started as us being awkward and camera shy turned into a fun day full of laughter and wishing that our session was longer!

On our wedding day, Nomo was so professional and organized and knew exactly where to take photos and how to capture our special moments. Our photos are simply stunning and really showcases her artistic eye and attention to detail. We have received so many compliments on our photos from family and friends.

Thank you Nomo for capturing our memories so beautifully!

Nomo did a fab job taking our families Christmas pics! Will be using her again next year for sure ! There are so many pics I love that I can't decide so I am making two Christmas cards lol. Love the fact that she listens to her clients and that she is so responsive via text, phone call or whatever ( especially for a new mom who doesn't have much time ). She also worked with inspiration photos adding her professional opinion and came to our home to take the pics . Honestly her work is the best but above all I appreciate the attitude and customer service which is hard to find .

I just wanted to recommended Simply Sweet Photography by Nomo Akisawa for boudoir. I spent hours researching different boudoir photographers in Vancouver and finally chose Nomo after finding her Instagram. I wanted elegant and tasteful photos. Nomo did not disappoint. Her photos are straight out a magazine and she does all of her incredible editing herself. There are photographers out there who charge an insane amount and it's not the quality of Nomos work. So happy!

Nomo is such a talented photographer; she was able to capture all the perfect moments on our wedding day! She is so friendly and sincere; Clayton and I were so comfortable with her for our engagement and wedding shots. Our engagement photos from her one-hour session turned out way nicer than the photos we got from a full day session with a family friend. We couldn’t be happier with both of our engagement photos and wedding photos. Nomo was really able to capture what we have envisioned for; our stunning photos are eternal reflections of our joy, our love and the beauty of our special day!

Searching for a wedding photographer was not an easy task, so when I saw Nomos photos I just knew she was the perfect fit.  My husband and I were very nervous for our engagement shoot having no experience with professional photos.  Nomo was so kind, patient, soft spoken and professional she made us feel so comfortable.  We love our animals and conveniently so does Nomo, we had our two dogs and horse included in the photos which was challenging at times...but you would never know by looking at the photos we were absolutely blown away!

Our wedding day happened to be one of the stormiest days In years... Rain, wind, earthquakes you name it we had it. The stress was high and Nomo made everything feel controlled, easy, and smooth. She works so hard and is so talented at what she does... And it shows in her photos.  Again you would never know by looking at the photos what crazy weather we actually had!!!  We are eternally grateful for our amazing life long memories captured by Nomo.

The services that Nomo, from Simply Sweet photography provided my family, will be treasured forever.  
My husband and I renewed our vows this past July 2015, for our 10 year anniversary.  We treated this vow renewal like a second wedding, since we were young for our first.  We thought that this was our chance to do a few things differently! I had originally been very disappointed with my first wedding photos, and being that I am a photographer myself, I knew that this time had to be different.

I found Nomo online, and instantly fell in love with her work.  Her photos were timeless, soft, and she has an incredible talent for capturing the love between two people.  Not only is her work sensational, but her prices are incredible.  Although I truly believe she is worth much, much more.

On the day of the renewal, Nomo was timely, professional, and pleasant to everyone.  My daughter especially fell in love with her.  When we received our photos, my husband and I were both surprised how fast she got them finished!!  We had woken up around 2:30 in the morning and saw the email from her, and we both knew we couldn't wait until morning to take a look.  We sat in bed, and viewed one amazing photo after another.  We were both in tears, seeing the beauty that she had captured in our family and guests.  

We are forever grateful for the photos that Simply Sweet photography captured for us.  Thanks to her talents, we have been able to relive our special day, over and over again.  We have, and will continue to, recommend Nomo to friends, family, and anyone that we meet.

We hired Nomo for our destination wedding after scouring the internet for a photographer who matched the style of photography we wanted for our big day. The minute I saw her photos I knew instantly that she was the perfect photographer for us, and her communication only solidified that. She was sweet, caring and enthusiastic in all of our conversations and always made us feel like the most important clients in the world. She was patient and flexible in the planning process of having her come along to Mexico, and when we finally met with her for our engagement shoot she exceeded all our expectations for what a photographer should be like. She made us feel so comfortable behind the camera, directed us into flattering poses and took candid shots as well. The photos were edited and in my inbox much quicker than I expected! Nomo and her assistant Jade joined us in Mexico and once again exceeded our expectations. They location scouted for every type of background I wanted for photos, got every single type of shot we could ever dreamed of and worked with such professionalism and grace the entire day. Our group had so much fun with them and they helped to make our day absolutely perfect. Planning a wedding can be stressful but having her as our photographer really gave us the chance to sit back, relax and enjoy the day because we knew we were in good and experienced hands. Hiring Nomo was the best decision we have ever made and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer for their wedding, whether it be local or destination.

Firstly, I am absolutely BLOWN AWAY by Nomo! We had Nomo as our destination photographer last weekend in Cabo at the Hyatt Ziva. If there’s one thing to really think about when getting married it’s the photos you are going to keep and cherish together forever. I’ve asked Nomo to slowly send me the photos one by one because I get so emotional on how beautifully she captured the LOVE Ryan and I have for each other. Endless smiles, laughs and tears- it was truly the best day of of my life! And I can’t believe how excellent she was with direction and her professionalism was something our entire wedding party noticed. You know you have an amazing photographer if your family and friends plan on booking her for their big days! Again, we cannot THANK YOU enough Nomo for our dreamy, whimsical- fairytale like wedding photos!
