Clouds Inside Photographer | Reviews

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!

I rarely write reviews but I have to for Clouds Inside Photography. Nayza was absolutely wonderful to work with! I am very critical of how I look in photos and was so worried I wouldn't be happy with my wedding photos--that's why I chose Nayza. After looking at her amazing work, I knew she would be the perfect photographer. She spent a lot of time listening to what I wanted and went out of her way to create photos I wanted but with her own aesthetic. I'm SO happy to have found a photographer I trust and can't wait for her to do another shoot with us! The morning of the wedding was very stressful and she made sure that both my husband and I were at ease, and looking at our photos, you'd never know how stressed we were. Our First Look photoshoot was one of the best parts of our wedding and it was all thanks to Nayza! She is so creative and works VERY quickly so you'll get tons of photos. If you want original photos that will take your breath away, Nayza is the photographer to work with!

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.

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!
