Nilo Photographer in Seoul

 

Hello,

I'm NILO

 

With years of experience behind the camera, my focus is on making your experience as enjoyable and natural as possible.


I specialize in capturing natural, candid moments, the real smiles, gentle gestures, and quiet beauty that make your story unique. My process is rooted in trust and connection. I believe that the best photos happen when you feel safe, understood, and free to be yourself.


As an LGBTQ+ friendly photographer, I offer a welcoming space for everyone. From Hanbok sessions in Seoul’s palaces to casual portraits in nature or cozy studio shoots, my goal is simple: to create beautiful images that reflect who you really are.


My approach

I know that exploring a new city like Seoul can be overwhelming, especially when you're also planning a photo session. That’s why I’m here to make sure you feel completely comfortable and at ease. My goal is to create a relaxed, fun, and inclusive experience where you can truly enjoy the moment.


As a queer-friendly Hanbok photographer in Seoul, I’ll gently guide you through the palace’s grand gates, serene gardens, and hidden corners — away from the crowds — to create timeless photos that highlight the elegance of Hanbok and your unique personality.

" Easy to work with beforehand, answering my many questions. During the day of the shoot at the Gyeongbokgung Palace, they suggested great places for the photos but also allowed me to pick some places that caught my eye. The end result was nothing short of breathtaking. The colors and composition of the photos was truly a wonderful memory from the day's photoshoot. "
