Photography By Maria Reyes

How I miss the days where I could pick up my camera and go on wondering adventures with the girls. Enjoying the little things such as picking up twigs or tiny rocks that eventually filled my car and mind with memories. I hope everyone is staying safe, and hope that soon we can all embrace life for what it is.

Such a beautiful wedding and the perfect tones to a summer wedding

One of my favorite parts of photography is catching organic and authentic emotions. Part of my journey with photography was meeting family through photographs. I never had the opportunity to meet my grandparents besides old black and white photographs my parents kept. I was fascinated to hear their stories and eventually I wanted to save those memories for others. There is never the perfect time to do anything. There is only an opportunity to take a risk and live in the present. On another note sometimes I wonder why I'm so bless with photographing amazing souls 💖

When this beautiful lady came to the studio I knew we would create some magic. She is such an amazing humble and caring individual. She creates amazing body butters, soaps, and my favorite essential oils. If you have a chance check her page out and support such a wonder business woman.

My favorite location by far...I get so many different views from one place...Don't look like they came out straight from a fairy tale?

“I’m the big sister. I want to make sure she has everything, even if I don’t have anything. It’s hard. I love her too much. That’s what counts.”
—Venus Williams

This hit home growing up I knew my role in the family. To protect my younger sisters. As we grew up it was hard to let go. To see them get their hearts broken, get in trouble with my parents or physically been sick. Yet, now I understood that each of them will walk their own path and from time to time theirs will cross mine.

So, I can't help but cry a little at weddings. Not only is love from the couple in the air, but the love of the families coming together is amazing. Every wedding I have had the pleasure of capturing has had its magical moments. Here is one that is filled with all the best wishes and heart felt love. I pause and a deep breath after taking this shot I think everyone in the room felt the hug I know I did.
