Your Portrait Experience
Your photo session is more than just a photoshoot — it’s a space to pause, connect, and celebrate the people you love most.
Every session begins with a creative process designed to make you feel seen, guided, and beautifully prepared.
What’s Included:
- Pre-Session Design consultation — we’ll talk about your vision, your “why”, and the feeling you want to capture.
- Wardrobe Consultation with access to Studio Wardrobe and multiple outfit changes.
- 1–1.5 hours of guided studio or outdoor session time.
- Professional Hair and Makeup.
Whether your kids are 2 or 18, I’ll guide the whole experience so you can just relax and enjoy your people and walk away with photos you’re totally obsessed with.

Testimonials
Kind words from my awesome clients
Young Lee
I love these photos. Thank you for creating another memory between a mother and daughter. I love the peaceful atmosphere of your artwork. Your photos have a deep echo of nostalgia. I love it.
Marianne
The day of, Maria will effortlessly find the best angles and backdrops. She puts you so at ease that soon you will forget she even has a camera in hand. All it seems is that you’re having a playdate with a long time friend, and she will suggest poses naturally while having a conversation.
All I remember thinking during the session is my hair is not right, and my child won’t stop moving around, so I had no idea how anything could be salvaged with those poorly performing models. But, when I received the photos less than a week after, I was so shocked by how Maria had turned this fun but messy moment into gold.
Daria Dow
A big thank you to my friend @maria.elaeva for a fun photo shot. You were able to capture us as we truly are! I love that you made our children so comfortable with you and thus we were able to get such amazing candid photos!
What a great memory to look back, at us, in our new home, our babies being little, cute, sweet and happy (at the moment)
Большое спасибо, дорогая!
