IN MAYA’S WORDS
As a documentary photographer, I’m an observer and storyteller. But it’s my passion for the human condition, natural emotion, relationships and LOVE that draws me to capture life’s moments for my clients. I marvel at the experience I get to have capturing weddings, social, non-profit, and corporate events. No matter what my subject, it’s the passion and compassion for the human spirit that allows me to capture raw emotion. No life moment should go undocumented. I hope to have the opportunity to capture your memories for you.
