If you’re looking for a photographer who brings a calm approach to family photo sessions, then you’re in the right place. I’m Maria, a candid family photographer based in Irvine, California. At home, my world revolves around my supportive husband, my energetic son, and, of course, our black-and-white cat.
Family Photoshoot Ideas
I take a laid-back, natural approach to family photo sessions. I take a laid-back, natural approach. Rather than stiff poses, I focus on capturing real moments that reflect your family’s energy. As a result, this style leads to creative, authentic images that feel true to you.
To make things even easier, I offer two types of family photo sessions, so you can choose what fits your family best:
