NADINE SACHIKO, GLAM PHOTOGRAPHER
I’ve been a top professional portrait photographer in the SGV for over 6 years. What I have loved the most about my job is showing my clients how beautiful they truly are–on camera.
Sadly, I’ve met many self-concious moms in my career who don’t realize how beautiful they truly are. These moms are often struggling with life balance and don’t take time out for themselves. I wanted to empower these ladies to snap out of the funk and do something for themselves (for once).
I launched Sachiko Glam in 2018 with the hope that I could help women build up their self-esteem and give them gorgeous photos of themselves that they can treasure for the rest of their lives.
I’m a mother of 4, former race car driver and multi-passionate entrepreneur with an absolute love for woman empowerment, fashion and photography.
When I’m not photographing glam sessions, I’m photographing newborns & families at Sachiko Studio or wandering the aisles of Target with my 4 daughters.
MY PHILOSOPHY
carefree. empowering. pampering.
Photo sessions should be something you look forward to…not dread. If you feel otherwise, then you haven’t had a photo session experience with me. I specialize in taking special care with the camera shy and self conscious. Sessions with me are like having coffee with a friend. Its that easy doll.
I have an eye for finding the most flattering angles, poses, clothing and lighting for my subjects. I can take off 10 lbs by simply correcting a pose.
ORIGIN OF “SACHIKO”
My middle name (and my grandma’s name) is “Sachiko.” In Japanese, it means happiness.
