Q&A With Nikki Whitt Belch, Founder and Owner of Fancy This Photography

Q: How did you approach photographing Nina Be’s yoga photo shoot?

A: I knew going into this that Nina Be would be a special soul to photograph. I went into this being open to her presence and her personal space. I had a few ideas of what I wanted to capture, but I did not know what kind of frequency I needed to be on until I met her. I wanted to match her energy. 

Q: How long did the branding session take? 

A: The session lasted about an hour to an hour and a half.

Q: Did you advise Nina on outfits and guide her through poses?

A: No, this was all her. We didn't plan the outfits at all. I wanted Nina to feel like her true self, and she had these outfits in the queue. I trusted her judgement.
