DESTINATION WEDDING & ELOPEMENT PHOTOGRAPHER—NEVADA & BEYOND

Documenting the real and raw through emotion-filled imagery.

I believe in capturing your story exactly as it is—with all the real, raw emotional moments that make it yours.

You deserve photos that are candid, comfortable, and completely YOU.

THE TIGHT EMBRACES. THE ALMOST KISSES. THE WIND-BLOWN HAIR. THE IN-BETWEEN MOMENTS NO ONE ELSE SEES.

Nothing is more important to me than documenting moments that reflect you and who you are as a couple. Together we will preserve the moments that matter most, not only from a day but also create an experience beyond just beautiful images. I want to give you photos that bring out real feelings and raw emotions so that you can look back and relive each moment long after your day has gone and passed.

“She helped so much with calming our nerves. She gave great instructions and had an eye for the all-around scenery. Not only did we have a ton of laughs during the shoot, but the photos also came out beautiful! Her editing & color work set the mood for our love so well. I highly recommend Maria and couldn’t have asked for a better photographer.”

“We were so lucky to have her do our engagement photos as she made us feel so comfortable the whole time. I need some direction when it comes to photos, and I feel like we were on the same page regarding poses and what we wanted. We can’t wait to have her by our side for our big day!”

“Maria is nothing short of phenomenal.”

Maria also had beautiful recommendations for locations to shoot at. It was definitely a 10/10 experience, and I couldn't recommend her more! .”
