From the first flutter of life to the milestone celebrations that define your family story.
What started as a hobby over 10 years ago grew into something beautiful and meaningful. At first, it was fun — creating pretty photographs, curiosity about techniques, and learning about lighting both outdoors and in the studio. Then came a degree in photography, internships at different photo studios, and masterclasses.
Lots of newborn photography workshops and courses — not just learning to create a beautiful portrait of your little one, but how to make sure all the poses are safe for the baby.
But the main reason is working with people. Catching the fleeting moments, real smiles, happiness on camera, and delivering those images to my clients brings me so much joy. It all became especially true after I got married and gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. Even though family was always important, only after I had a daughter did I truly realize the “why” of photography.
Each session is equally important, be it a newborn, maternity, first milestones, or family — the list can go on and on. Of course, you’ve got your memories, but being able to SEE those moments — to re-live them through images — is priceless.
This is why my photography style is vibrant but natural. Your gallery will have genuine, happy, and timeless photographs that will be loved and cherished for generations to come.
Every session is tailored to your family. I get to know you first, so your images reflect who you actually are — not a pose from Pinterest.
Our Huntingdon Valley studio is stocked with wraps, props, gowns, and professional lighting — everything included, nothing extra to bring.
Certified in safe newborn handling. Every pose is baby-first. You can relax knowing your little one is in gentle, trained hands throughout.
Your personal gallery makes choosing your favorites and sharing with family beautifully simple. Delivered within two weeks of your session.
Ready to elevate your photography business? I offer one-on-one mentoring sessions for photographers at all levels — from those just starting out to established shooters who want to refine their craft or grow their client base.
My mentoring sessions are personal, practical, and tailored to exactly where you are and where you want to go.
Maria photographed our newborn when he was just 7 days old. The images are absolutely breathtaking. She made us feel so comfortable and handled our son with such gentleness and care.
Our cake smash photos came out even better than I imagined. Maria has such a gift for capturing genuine joy. Our daughter was laughing the whole time and it shows in every single shot.
We’ve been coming back to ProPhoto by MK for three years — newborn, family, and now our Bar Mitzvah. She truly knows our family and always delivers something we treasure. Forever grateful.
