well hello there!

a wedding & lifestyle photographer

BASED IN little rock

Serving Arkansas + anywhere else you want to take me!

I am Mariela (Mary-ella) Cali girl living in Arkansas!

I am a wifey and a mother of two beautiful little girls & a fur mommy to two sweet pups!

I am super chill, go with the flow kind of girl! I consider myself super patient, super polite, can actually be a bit shy.

I started off as a macro photographer with my point & shoot camera but my love for photography has evolved over time into capturing people.

Any photographer can tell you to look at the camera and smile, but I love to capture those raw in between moments. I want to take photos that invoke emotion and make it hard to take your eyes off of them. I want to give you images that will stand the test of time.

I describe my photography style as relaxed, candid & real. I would define my work as moody, warm, a bit contrasty & vibrant. As mentioned above I am a go with the flow kinda girl, totally open to client's creativity & my goal is that you trust me enough to be open to my creativeness. You want to jump in a pond? let's do it! You prefer to play it safe & stay in your comfort zone? We can do that too! I am here for you!

I am here for you, to capture you for who you truly are!
