What clients are saying
Rhowena Adolfo Patel, Healing Mama Co.
HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND investing and working with Nathalie and Pictonat for all your business and branding photography. Nathalie was absolutely incredible to work with from being extremely organized, thorough and concise to taking on everything she could off of my plate and ensure that all communication and coordination was completed on a timely basis. Considering we planned, conducted a model casting call and pulled off an entire photoshoot in 3 weeks is an incredible feat! Nathalie was so easy to work with, she understood our brand and vision and executed everything flawlessly, as a photoshoot can go with hundreds of variables happening simultaneously. Her attention to detail, professionalism and responsiveness is everything you could wish for.
Healing Mama Co. has found a beautiful long term partnership with Nathalie and Pictonat and we're excited for our growth to manifest and unfold with the branding and photography that Nathalie has provided us with.
Shelagh Cummins, The Road to Seven
I hate having my picture taken. I am self conscious, uncomfortable and would literally rather do anything else in the world. Then enter Nathalie. From the moment I registered for branding shots, she handled my anxieties and discomfort like a pro. She helped me with what to wear, how to shop up, she helped think through shots we would take. When I arrived on the day, she instantly made me comfortable, I forgot she was taking pictures, she talked to me the whole time so I was distracted - all while she was clicking away. The result... some of the best pictures I have ever had taken that I am happy to put out in the world. I am so grateful and will book annually with her!

I had the pleasure of having a brand builder VIP day with Nathalie. The entire process was so much fun and she took care of everything! Her planning and strategy when it comes to brand photos is incredible. Everything was perfect and the photos turned out even better than I could have imagined. I can't wait until I get the chance to work with Nathalie again and can't recommend her enough!
Lisa Feldstein, Lisa Feldstein Law Office
Nathalie was awesome. I received lots of communication in advance about what to wear, location, etc. She chose a great space and guided me through where to stand and what to do. She ensured I covered shots like hero image, headshot, and others that might be needed in my business. I was invited to bring in props to help convey my brand. She knows her stuff and made me feel comfortable. I am really pleased with the final results and recommend Pictonat 100%!

Working with Nathalie and Pictonat Creative was a dream come true. I had never done a Brand Photo Shoot before and the process that Nathalie walked me through from start to finish was amazing. She made it so easy, had very creative ideas and suggestions and was a true professional throughout. I would highly recommend her for any of your brand needs. The quality of her work is incredible. So much value for what she offers!!
Dee Boswell Buck, Boswell-Buck Creative
I finally reached out to Nathalie for my new branding photos. I shared with her some things that were important to me.
From start to finish, Nathalie asked questions, guided me on how to prepare and made the photo session a delightful experience.
When I received my images, I loved them all! It’s been 3 weeks that I’ve received my photos and I have received many compliments. The images speak to what I do and they really show my personality.
I highly recommend that you not only reach out to Nathalie Amlani for photos that embrace who you are as a business owner…I also suggest that you book your session with her today!
Lianne Kim, Lianne Kim Coach
Nathalie was incredible at making my brand vision come to life. Her detailed questionnaire and interview process really helped me define the look and feel I wanted for my personal brand. She helped me uncover how I want the world to see me, and it was exhilarating!
On the day of the shoot Nathalie was a true pro. She even helped me organized parts of the home we'd be shooting in (something I didn't have time to do beforehand) and helped entertain my kids while I got ready. We moved through several different 'stories' and she was so patient and helpful, guiding me through every step of the process. She brought several new ideas and suggestions for poses for me, things I would have never thought of but now love the final look of.
In the end, I am blown away by the quality and variety of the images we created (anyhow quickly I got them!). I have a ton of beautiful photos for my new website that truly reflect how I feel and how I want my clients to feel when they see it.
Follow what lights you up and you’ll light up the world.

Lauren Kurtz, Evan Beau Cosmetics
I do not know anyone who could have put together such a professional and well-guided dive into my brand as Nathalie did! Not only is her photography inspired and beautiful to look at, working with her also is a pleasure. She put me at ease, helped me to think of angles and images I wouldn't have originally thought up on my own, and the delivery of images and branding strategy has been seamless and unequal to anyone else I have worked with in this industry. Evan Beau and I thank you !! Highly recommend, and excellent value with so many images for my use on all platforms!

Nathalie came highly recommended to me by someone in my network. We booked an initial consultation and I feel like she got me, my spirit and what I was looking for to have for head-shots. Her communications and follow-ups were always professional while everything was laid out and easy to follow. She picked the perfect photo shoot location as well as helping to arrange additional hair styling and make-up. Rather than just sitting awkwardly in a chair, we instead were in a lovely salon and could take all kinds of pictures in different scenes and poses. There was also the opportunity to change into three different outfits. All in all, there were plenty of pictures to choose from so that I could select the best ones to use for online/social media. The photo shoot was super fun, the pictures came back extremely fast, and people commented how beautiful they looked. It was a great experience!
Julie Greenham
You made my time with you incredibly fun, enjoyable, and relaxing! I am amazed at how you move so swiftly in your environment and take the perfect shot. My branding photos are beyond my expectations! They showcase exactly my personality and what it’s like to work with me. I am so proud to showcase them, and that says a lot coming from me — the major introvert! My investment was 1000% worth it. Thank you so much, Nathalie.
Kimberly MacKenzie, The Intersection Hub
I knew that branding pictures were important for business, but I kept on putting them off — waiting to lose weight or to have more money or a complete business plan...., all the excuses. I finally called Nathalie and set it up. Talking to her was so easy. She was very curious about me and my business, and I truly felt like I would get a product that was unique to me. On the day of the shoot, Nathalie was amazing. Extremely professional, caring, and really thoughtful. She immediately put me at ease, and we had so much FUN! When I got the pictures, I was blown away! I couldn't believe how stunning they were, and I immediately wanted to share them with the world. So of course, I started to proudly promote my business and one thing led to another, and now my business is launched and doing really well. My only regret is not doing it sooner!
Liza Voticky, MXA Talent Solutions
My very first experience building my personal and corporate brand was just fantastic, and I owe it all to Nathalie. As women we often are so critical of ourselves, and as we age even more so. I looked forward to the experience with equal amounts of excitement and dread; I'm chubby, I'm aging, I won't look like a model.... all the negative stuff we tell ourselves. Then Nathalie set me up with an amazing positive and energized make up artist who enhanced my look for the camera and I could recognize myself, then Nathalie arrived with the biggest smile and positive energy and we were off. She gave me the space to feel a bit insecure and encouraged me with every shot. Her energy was amazing. I left that day feeling supported and positive about what I was doing and where I was headed as a business, and as a person. Then the pictures came and I was awe struck. I'm so glad I did this and I think we will update our photos with Nathalie frequently, seasonally for sure. I cannot express how positive an experience it was and how the pics are now part of our brand and we are launching our social media around the images. Thank you Nathalie for capturing me, and my passion for what I do!

Nathalie was amazing at guiding me through her process and navigating positively through my questions/concerns. She is professional, knowledgeable and provides lots of extra tips and tools on how to use your new professional photo's to build a strong brand online. My pictures were beautiful.
Neya Abdi
Nathalie's website spoke to me. She understood all the things that were holding me back from getting photos taken – organizing the shoot, feeling like I wasn't in the best shape yet, etc. She was organized, communicative, put me at ease, and guided me on how to get the best shots. It was a smooth process from beginning to end. I'm so happy with the photos, and I can't wait to do more shoots with her.

Jennifer Singh, She’s Newsworthy Media
I absolutely loved working with Nathalie at my recent workshop. She has a special gift of making you feel at ease while you are posing for the perfect shot. I’m not comfortable in front of a still camera, but somehow she managed to keep the conversation flowing and I was able to loosen up. She captured so many beautiful images that I can use for my website, marketing material and beyond. I highly recommend working with her if you want gorgeous photos that capture your authentic self.
Barbara Morris-Blake, Elevate Organizations
I had my brand photoshoot with Nathalie, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience or for better results. She took the time to understand and hone in on my brand story and my goals, and I knew I was in the best of hands during the shoot. Nathalie has the gift of connecting quickly and made me feel like I was her highest priority and an absolute VIP. The entire shoot was fun, organized, stress-free, and really enjoyable. I highly recommend Nathalie who is an amazing person and an exceptional photographer.
Emma Lewzey, Blue Sky Philanthropy
Wow! I LOVE the results of my mini branding shoot with Nathalie. I'll admit, I don't typically enjoy getting my photo taken - but Nathalie made the process easy, relaxed and pain-free. If you need some *amazing* photos for your business, book Nathalie in right now!
Chernell Bartholomew, The Vitality Movement
Nathalie was my first ever photographer for a branding shoot and she continues to be the person I trust to guide and direct me. Her approach to planning and prepping for the shoot was focussed and relaxed, she allowed me to feel excited and supported. I trust her vision and her ability to get the right shots, with the right energy and story to showcase my personality and brand.
Maria Munoz, Planted Souls
Working with Nathalie was such a fun and smooth experience. This was my first photoshoot, and Nathalie made it so easy. She is filled with so many creative ideas, and really pays attention to every small detail. This really took my pictures to the next level. I am amazed by her work and could not recommend her enough!
Jillian Thistel, Twinkling Stars Pediatric Sleep Consulting
Nathalie is incredible! I recently did a Branding photoshoot with her, and the whole experience was amazing from beginning to end! Nathalie sat down with me before our shoot to do some planning and really helped me figure out the best way to show my branding and my personality through the photoshoot. She is creative, and kind, and had such great ideas for capturing some amazing shots! Her photos are of excellent quality, and I could not be happier with the pictures she provided me! I would highly recommend Nathalie!
Holly Hagan, Top Medical Writer
I had an amazing experience with Nathalie and her team. I had the VIP Branding Photoshoot in Toronto last week. From initial contact to VIP day to follow-up, Nathalie has been attentive and responsive. I put my trust in her and her photography expertise and it paid off. She has great ideas and she was able to incorporate important props for me into the photos. The images are exactly what I was hoping for -- fabulous!
