A lifelong Rhode Islander and proud Middletown resident, I share my cozy home with my 5-pound bundle of joy, Emmie. At 4’11” (yes, everyone asks!), I’ve spent over 16 years capturing weddings with a passion that has only grown stronger. Photography isn’t just my career—it’s the way I connect with people, tell their stories, and help preserve the moments that matter most.
I’m endlessly inspired by life’s little joys, like my twin nephews, Jackson and Max, and, of course, dogs (the more, the merrier). Whether I’m chasing the perfect light on a hiking trail, indulging in my love of tacos, or unwinding with yoga, I bring that same energy and curiosity into every shoot.
I believe photography is about more than images—it’s about creating experiences. From the laughter shared during a session to the memories we capture together, I’m here to help you celebrate life, love, and all the extraordinary moments in between. I can’t wait to meet you, hear your story, and make magic together
Born and raised in Rhode Island, I spent 14 years living in the breathtaking landscapes of Colorado before returning home to be closer to family. That decision marked a turning point in my life—I left a career in technology to pursue something that resonated deeply with my passions: art, storytelling, and connection.
Partnering with Jenny, in both life and business, I’m proud to bring a fresh perspective to photography. Together, we combine her years of expertise with my eye for detail and shared passion for creating meaningful experiences.
When I’m not capturing life’s special moments, you’ll find me exploring New England’s hiking trails, refining my Blue Zone-inspired cooking, or learning new skills—whether it’s photography techniques or poker strategy. I thrive on connecting with people and making every session as fun and memorable as the moments we capture together.
For me, photography is more than just images; it’s about celebrating stories, relationships, and the extraordinary beauty in everyday life. Whether it’s a wedding, family portraits, or a commercial project, I can’t wait to help you tell your story in a way that feels authentic and timeless.
Hey there! I’m Maria. Originally, I'm from a neighborhood of Boston, MA I have a deep love for the coast and spent my childhood summers in Southern Maine. I'm lucky to call the East Bay home now and truly thrive near the ocean. I was lucky to have met Jen in 2021 and have been her second shooter ever since.
I grew up with cameras in my life from the very beginning. On my mom’s side of the family we say “it’s in our blood”. Since my first photography course, I knew that this was something I wanted to incorporate into my daily life. I love being the second set of eyes, and camera, on your wedding day. I spend most of the day making sure no detail is missed and that Jen has everything she may need to make sure your love story is captured in your wedding photos. I trust no one more than Jen with my own family memories and am so happy that you are able to experience her incredible skill as well.
When I am not with Jen, I am capturing families, newborns and maternity sessions of my own, working as a Labor and Delivery Nurse, or hanging with my own little family - full of the best type of chaos with a toddler and two dogs!
