Relaxed Portraits that Illuminate the True Essence of Every Family

Maria studied photography at the University of California - Santa Cruz and received a degree in art with a concentration in photography. In 2000, she moved to New York City and began an internship with portrait photographer Joyce Tenneson, where she developed her own personal portrait style, a blend of photojournalism and relaxed portraiture. As a documentary wedding photographer, she shoots every family session personally and has always had a love for photographing children and families. With the birth of her first child in 2012, her passion for capturing the stories of childhoods grew even stronger. Now, she is obsessed with artistically capturing the story of her daughters' childhoods and aims to create authentic, beautiful portraits for her clients that are full of real moments, laughter, and love.
