blend creativity & care
authentic, soulful brand images

Working with Nikita Akilapa was a beautiful, intuitive process, just like her teaching. Nikita is a North London-based yoga teacher, doula, and hypnobirthing guide, known for her soulful presence and deeply integrative practice. She weaves movement, birth work, and mindfulness into something truly unique. My role was to translate all of that into visual language. We didn’t just jump into the shoot. Together, we explored what really resonated with her, both aesthetically and emotionally. Through conversations, references, and instinct, we shaped a subtle, strong visual story that aligned with her inner message. The result is a set of brand images that not only reflect what she offers but speak to the energy behind it.

What fuels my passion is this exact kind of work, creating images that are more than surface deep. It’s not just about beautiful light and soft colour palettes (though we found both); it’s about presence. Connection. Feeling into the space together, reading between the lines of a teaching style that’s hard to define in words but instantly recognisable in a photograph. The feedback from Nikita said it all: “I hadn’t expected so much care, safe guidance and direction in helping me find what I was looking for.” Her brand and voice evolved through the shoot, a powerful reminder of what happens when you make space for someone to be seen. If you're a yoga teacher, doula, or movement educator looking for images that feel true to who you are, let’s talk. I’ll bring the creativity, care, and clarity to help your vision take shape.
