who want to have genuine
heartfelt moments to cherish for life.
Our children grow up
Our parents age
And time leaves its marks.
The photos have the power to allow us to relive these moments, to preserve the smiles, the hugs, and the tender moments that define who we are as a family. And I love bringing all that in the atmosphere I create for you and your family to have quality time together, making real core memories!
Letting the kid be a kid, bringing everyone’s personality to the front of the camera and one thing that it can’t be missed: Our little moment of gratitude.
It’s a way to ensure that the most important moments of your life remain alive, letting your hearts speak, being present at the moment with your family and it will also make an ethereal memory in everyone involved — from your children to your grandchildren and future generations.
We had the pleasure of working with Mayara for our family photo session a while ago and we cannot recommend her enough! From the very start, Mayara’s warm and welcoming personality made us feel right at home. She has a natural gift for connecting with people, which made the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free.
Mayara was especially wonderful with our daughter, showing patience and kindness. She engaged with her in such a sweet and playful way, making the session fun rather than feeling like a chore. Our daughter quickly warmed up to Mayara, which allowed for some genuinely beautiful moments to be captured.
Not only is Mayara incredibly talented, but her professionalism also shines through in every aspect of her work. She communicated clearly, made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, and knew exactly how to position us to get the best shots. Her ability to create a relaxed and joyful atmosphere made a huge difference, and we felt at ease throughout the entire session.
The photos we received are stunning. Mayara captured the essence of our family in a way that feels authentic and heartfelt. Her attention to detail, creativity, and eye for natural moments truly set her apart. We are so grateful for the beautiful memories she has given us.
If you're looking for a photographer who is not only great with kids but also a true professional who can make you feel comfortable and bring out the best in you, Mayara is the perfect choice. Her sweet nature, combined with her skill and professionalism, made our family photo session a fantastic experience. We highly recommend her to anyone looking to capture special moments with their loved ones!
Small traditions that are part of your daily life, what you love about each other, the appreciation of being a family and the gratitude for each other will build a moment that you all will cherish for a lifetime. And for that I will ask you to be present!
How do I bring that for the session? You will tell me a little about your family on the booking, throughout the questionnaire and we will talk more, so I will know your family story and how to incorporate your family personality in the memories we will make.
Worry about how to coordinate the outifits? No problem, I got you covered with a styling guide and I will be available to help you all the way.
On the day of the session, I’ll make sure that every family member feels comfortable — even those who say they hate having their picture taken, making few questions and guiding everyone to have a true core memory made.
You’ll feel free to be your true selves and show the love and connection that make your family unique.
After the session, you’ll receive an online gallery with all the photos, and you’ll be able to choose your favorites — the ones that will become your family’s most treasured legacy.
Let’s create memories for your family the way that will speak to you many years to come.
