Gabriela Niță
I’m Gabriela — portrait photographer, videographer, and certified Primal therapist based in Bucharest, Romania.
Most photographers will tell you to relax in front of the camera. I actually know how to help you get there.
My background in Primal therapy — a body-based approach to emotional expression — shapes everything about how I work. I create space for people to drop their defenses, reconnect with themselves, and show up as they actually are. Not performed. Not posed. Real.
That’s what makes these sessions different. And that’s what shows up in the photos.

Understanding my work
The most meaningful images don’t come from good lighting or perfect poses. They come from something quieter. Here are my thoughts on what that something could be.
On vulnerability and the camera
We all want to be seen. And almost all of us are afraid of it. Here’s what happens when those two things meet in the right space.
How I came to understand the healing power of photography
It didn’t happen in a studio. It happened ten thousand kilometres from home, surrounded by strangers who saw me before I saw myself.
Why I combined therapy and photography
I was a photographer long before I was a therapist. Then I started asking why the most powerful images only happened in unplanned moments — and that question changed everything.
What happens in the first 10 minutes
Everything comes up at once — the doubt, the awkwardness, the quiet voice asking what was I thinking? Here’s why that’s actually a good sign.
What people say
Antonela
“I wanted to feel special, pampered, beautiful and in the spotlight at the turn of a new year. With Gabriela’s help, the magic happened — I spent time that I felt moment by moment, with every antenna of my soul, as something that was entirely mine. Thank you, woman, for bringing to the surface things I truly needed to see, for creating space for me and for drawing my portrait through the lens of your camera.”
Lia
“The photo and video sessions with Gabriela were an experience that taught me how to be relaxed in front of the camera. Many times I completely forgot I was being filmed or photographed. She gently awakens in you the naturalness of simply being YOU, and it comes so easily. And if I got too much into judgment or restlessness, she always brought me back with a joke or a really useful suggestion. One of the most relaxing collaborations I’ve had — highly recommended.”
Oana
“Gabi captures your essence in the most relaxed and gentle way possible. She’s the kind of photographer who sees beyond the image, brings out your true story, and makes you fall in love with yourself. 1000% recommended — if you want authentic photos, a fun session, and wow results. Thank you so much, Gabi, for the experience!”
Irina
“The photo session with Gabriela Niță was the most beautiful gift I could have given myself. I felt so good and everything flowed so naturally that I didn’t want it to end. Gabi has an absolutely unmistakable and delicious way of making you drop your guard and show up in front of the camera relaxed and eager to show your beauty and the joy you live with. And her impeccable artist’s eye sees these things before you even believe them yourself. That is Magic. I wholeheartedly recommend giving yourself this kind of gift — you will not regret it.”
