family photoshoot

“She truly captured our little family so beautifully”

Maria captured our first family photo shoot. Going into this my partner and I were quite nervous as we had never been professionally photographed and had just had our first baby. I can honestly say that when being photographed by Maria it feels like being photographed by a close friend she is one of the warmest and most welcoming people I think I've ever come across and is such an amazing lady she truly captured our little family so beautifully and we will definitely be going to her for many more photos!
