21 Years of experience

I am a super positive self-starter that loves meeting new people. I love working with children, they bring me so much joy. I have a knack of getting them to open up to me and have fun!


I'm great at singing kids songs and doing the running man dance :)


Professionalism and customer service are a top priority, it gives me goosebumps to see the look on clients faces when they see their images for the first time. Going above and beyond for my clients makes me happy!

Awards, honors and recognition

I was voted best newborn photographer in Vancouver and won best of Clark County in 2016.

A fun fact about me

I'm Irish and moved here in 2010 from Ireland, I do an Irish Jig to help people loosen up sometimes, life is to be enjoyed, I don't take myself too seriously.

Maria was super positive throughout the booking process and the photoshoot itself. She was very welcoming and had a unique way of connecting with our family. Every thing went well and my kids walked away saying "I love her". Funny, charming and easy-going. Maria was a delight to work with and the photos turned out great!
