Hi there! I'm Maria, an Ecuadorian living in Baltimore, MD, 100% bilingual and a pretty cool mom (their words) to two young guys. I'm married to a super handsome and incredibly intelligent french guy I met in Costa Rica and with whom I love dreaming, planning, traveling, eating and just living a full life!
Intention & Passion are my drivers as an artist; a creative, a mentor, a dreamer and a full-time adventurer! I specialize in natural light photography. My goal is to craft a truly memorable experience for you that infuses confidence every single step of the way. In every session, I strive to create emotional imagery and connections that tell YOUR STORY. I genuinely believe that you deserve to have photos that make you feel carefree and beautiful in any season of your life!
I began photographing using a film camera 20 years ago and, if nothing else, film photography pushed me technically and taught me to be intentional; to wait for the moment and breathe before capturing an instant in time and ultimately, creating a beautiful photograph.
creating emotive photos that make you feel,
infusing my clients with confidence, and
making the portrait experience a positive and unforgettable memory
