“Aika is an amazing photographer. She is not only very talented, but makes you feel so comfortable and at ease. We have done many family sessions (loved the results of EVERY one), and I recently had the opportunity to do a photoshoot -- just ME. So glamorous. I didn't even know I could look like that. Thank you, Aika, for getting me out of my mom-gear, and making me feel beautiful. Its nice to have photos that capture my true self, plus more..”

We truly enjoyed our experience with Aika. She is so talented and has a keen eye for details and creating organic, family images that will be treasured forever. She was such a natural with our kids, embracing the spontaneity and fun side which ultimately led to some of the best photos we've ever captured of them. We're so happy to have found such a gem of a photographer in the Bay Area and can't recommend her enough.

" Aika has been with us since the birth of our baby girl. From our maternity shoot, to our newborn shoot, to the last four family sessions, Aika has been able to capture the most beautiful moments for our family. She has the ability to always find the perfect shot, always makes us feel comfortable and always listens to our needs and what we want. She works very well with children and is always sensitive in their needs especially when they are not being the perfect models. We are always so amazed at how many absolutely stunning pictures we receive after each of our sessions. We cannot thank Aika enough for always making us look good and giving us such beautiful family moments. Needless to say, she comes highly, highly recommended!"

I’ve worked with Aika to shoot newborn photos as well as several family sessions over the past few years. I love the way Aika uses natural light. The photos are light and airy, without being overly edited. She does a great job of
keeping the kids engaged and is very patient with newborns! One major difference I’ve found with Aika over other photographers is she’s very organized and responsive. Having photos delivered when they are promised is very important to me. Aika is a joy to work with and I look forward to shooting many more sessions with her!

family Photographer
We have been one of her longest standing clients and fans of her work, for now well over 10 years.
We relish each opportunity to capture our special moments and it is with Aika’s sense of style, photogenic eye and personal technique that makes our photos not just a photo but a true capture of our family’s personality, spirit and warmth.
Many thanks to Aika for sharing her talent with our family in the past, in the present and we hope for many more years to come.
~ Hilarie
Aika has been shooting our family for a few years now- headshots and family portraits. To my amazement, the photos come out perfect each time! Having young twin boys, I feel like getting everyone looking good, smiling and looking at the camera would be an impossible task, Aika pulls it off each and every time. We are so thankful we found her and she provides us with these memories that will last a lifetime!
