Words of love from my clients

I had an absolutely fantastic experience working with Nilo from the planning and execution of my surprise hanbok proposal photoshoot. Nilo is extremely passionate about capturing authentic and intimate moments and we had several Zoom calls where Nilo prepared and coached me on things I needed to know and best practices for executing the proposal.


Leading up to the day of the photoshoot, Nilo went above and beyond for me because he went to the proposal location to take photos 1 week before as well as 1 day before the proposal date to show me the environment and the lighting. They provided instructions, a map, and even provided advice on where to go and how fast to go through the palace area to reach the destination when there would be smaller crowds of people. The photoshoot itself felt very comfortable and felt very natural. Nilo provided advice and suggestions to creating different kinds of photos to add fun and silliness that captured our relationship. Nothing felt rushed and it truly felt like Nilo was my partner who helped make my dream proposal become a reality.


Thank you Nilo for all your hard work and dedication to creating such beautiful memories!

One of the best photographers we’ve worked with! (Trust me, I worked with several already)


Nilo is such a breeze to work with! They instantly made us comfortable as we were walking towards the location. Nilo made us feel like we’re friends getting to know each other. This is important because my husband and I weren’t awkward at all when we started shooting.


I’m amazed by Nilo's professionalism and attention to detail!! I feel like we have a stylist, director and photographer all in one! If you want to feel great while shooting without any stress, book Nilo! We’re booking Nilo for our next Seoul trip for sure!

Nilo is a highly professional photographer and a kind-hearted person! Nilo was very patient with us and our little son. Nilo has a great artistic perspective and offered excellent suggestions for lighting, locations, angles and lens choices. We couldn't be happier with the images he captured; Nilo made our memorable trip to the beautiful city of Seoul even more special, serving as the best souvenirs we could have asked for!

I honestly didn't know what to expect booking a photographer for something as personal as a proposal,  but Nilo made the whole experience feel completely natural and stress-free.


From the very beginning, Nilo took the time to understand what I wanted and helped me find the perfect spot in Seoul. What really blew my mind was how much thought went into every little detail - the lighting, the timing, the angles. I didn't have to think about any of it, which meant I could just be fully present in that moment.


And that moment? It was everything. When I look back at those photos now, I can still feel exactly how I felt standing there. Nilo somehow managed to capture something that felt completely private and real, not posed, not staged, just us.


If you're thinking about a proposal shoot in Seoul, stop overthinking it and just book Nilo. You won't regret it for a single second. These photos will be some of the most treasured things we own for the rest of our lives.

We had such a great experience with Nilo during our family photoshoot in Seoul. She was very easy to talk to, always responsive, and answered all our questions. She even gave tips on what to wear and sent a questionnaire to understand our vision, which was so thoughtful.


During the shoot, she was very friendly and made us feel relaxed and comfortable. She was so patient and engaging with our kids, and guided us with simple poses and small adjustments that made the photos look even better. She has a great eye for detail.


We love how the photos turned out. They looked natural and captured our real expressions and moments as a family. The photos were delivered right away, and the edited ones were beautiful while still looking natural.


We now have wonderful memories of our trip to Seoul. We will definitely book Nilo again on our next visit. Thank you, Nilo!!!
