What can I give?

Capturing the moments that don't feel like anything but are everything

Capturing the moments that don't feel like anything but are everything 〰️

I believe the world would be a better place if people wouldn't ask "What can I get out of this world?," but instead, "What can I give?"

As an artist I'm so blessed to have the ability to articulate my genuine "inner voice" through art, to see deeper into things & to use my imagination to create and solve.

And, as a mother, I feel how fast our babies just grow in a blink of an eye. No matter how much you want to control it, there's nothing you can do to slow life down.

How time tricks us.

You think you will remember the way your son laughs. The way your husband places your head so gently on his chest. Or maybe you just know you will always remember the way your wife looked when she was handed her first baby.

But so often, we don't. I realised what it is that I have to give. These moments we live are tiny, but the way they all fit together tells a story. A heritage. And through a photograph, I can capture that heritage. I can capture the emotion, the details, the connection. The raw. Then we can create something beautiful from those images. Beautiful memories that you can keep for years to come.

A relic, treasured by your children's children.

So what can I give? What do I desire for you to have?

Your heritage, held.

”I wouldn’t recommend anyone else other than Maria to capture your lovely memories.”

“ I’ve been going to Maria for photos for a couple of years now and she has watched my family grow from just me and my partner to now having a beautiful baby girl. Maria did our newborn photos and they are absolutely stunning. She makes you feel so comfortable and confident in front of the camera and her turn around time from the shoot to you receiving your gallery is so fast. We absolutely love her & would 100% recommend her!”
