The life of a photographer

They say if you love what you do, you'll never work a day in your life—and I couldn't agree more.

Hi, I'm Maryana, the face behind Moments by Maryana. Weddings have had my heart since the very beginning. There's something about the excitement, the emotion, and yes... the adrenaline rush of a wedding day that I can't get enough of. It's fast-paced, full of once-in-a-lifetime moments, and I truly feel honored every time I'm trusted to document one.

I began photographing weddings in 2024 and took the leap to pursue my dream full-time in 2026. Since then, my passion has only grown—not just for creating beautiful images, but for building genuine relationships with the incredible people I meet along the way.

When you book with me, you're not just hiring someone to show up with a camera. You're gaining someone who will celebrate with you, cheer you on, and hopefully become the photographer you call for every chapter that follows—from engagements and anniversaries to maternity sessions, growing families, and everything in between. My goal is to create a lifelong relationship, not just deliver a gallery.

A little about me outside of photography? I'm proudly Mexican, firmly believe tacos can fix just about anything, and you'll almost always find a Diet Coke in my hand. I love laughing with my couples, making them feel comfortable in front of the camera, and capturing the real moments that tell your story exactly as it happened.

If you're looking for more than just beautiful photos—if you're looking for someone who will genuinely care about your story from day one—I'd be honored to be part of it.
