Hey, I’m Maria! 

I’m a graphic designer, photographer, wife, and mama to my sweet little girl.

I’m originally from Ecuador, where I studied Digital Arts. My love for photography started with an old film camera I found among my parents’ things. I just loved the feeling of that little click.  I eventually took a photography class in college, fell completely in love with it, and never stopped!

Life eventually brought me to South Jersey after I met my husband, a Jersey native, on a surf trip in Ecuador. We both love the ocean, so South Jersey became home, and I absolutely love it here. 

Now, my daughter is my favorite little model, and becoming a mom has made me appreciate photographs in a whole new way. Time goes by SO fast, and there’s something so special about having photos that let you hold onto those little moments.

That’s what I love most about photography: capturing the genuine stuff. The laughs, the cuddles, the windblown hair, the little in-between moments, and the connection that makes your story yours.

Whether I’m photographing your family at the beach, celebrating your love, or documenting a new chapter in your life, my goal is always to create images that feel natural, joyful, and true to you.

I’m so happy you’re here, and I’d love to be the one behind the camera for your next chapter.
