I had a pleasure of photographing this family for many years now, ever since Brittany was born… Please enjoy yet another super fun photo session with Britt, Liam and their parents! 🙂
Nothing says it better than the words of a client…
“… I have been admiring Marina’s photography for a long time and I always wanted her to take pictures of my girls, Mia and Amber. When we met in person and talked about our ideas and vision of our photo session I totally fell in love with her warm personality, creative vision and I was certain that she will create memories for a lifetime.
She is amazing with little ones and toddlers. Very patient, calm, sweet and loving. She captures beautiful images and she makes parents and kids comfortable and at ease. She creates a bond with families and understands their needs. Our photo session felt very personal and she put her heart and soul into it. She engaged with our kids and got the most adorable giggles and smiles. We got some truly beautiful images that no one else before was able to capture. We were absolutely smitten with all images Marina took of our girls. They all look like magazine covers.
Marina takes time, listens, plans and prepares for her sessions.
She has adorable setting in her studio, different backdrops, tons of gorgeous props and she is exceptionally talented.
She has very keen eye for details. Her photos speak for themselves. She creates fairy tales. Memories that will last forever.
We worked with many photographers before, but experience we had with Marina exceeded our expectations.”
…”I wanted to thank you once again for your time and those amazing pictures you took of our girls.
We love them!

“My daughter just turned one, which is a nostalgic milestone in itself. I really wanted to capture her personality and every little detail about her at this precious age! It’s hard to believe that my little baby is growing so fast!
Brynlee loves singing songs, playing outside, any and every dog, and pizza! She also loves to cheer on her older siblings at softball, soccer, and hockey. Strangely, she also loves to watch football! (As a family we like to take walks, play at the park, and go swimming!)
Brynlee just started walking and is oh so proud of herself!
For my little one, the most important thing I needed for this photography session was my singing voice! She loves music and we did quite a bit of singing to get her attention during the photo shoot…Thank you Marina for joining right in with our songs…I can’t believe how much fun Brynlee had with you during our shoot!
In past photo sessions with other photographers, I was always trying to plan every little detail myself…the outfit, the pose, the props, even the lighting because I wanted that perfect shot. But let’s face it…I am not a photographer. I finally realized that I wanted someone with expertise and artistry that I could trust. It was wonderful to be able to express what I wanted to get out of the session, and then just hand it over to you. Your talent and attention to detail were outstanding!
The final images really do speak for themselves.
Your knowledge of lighting really shows in the final pictures. I also loved your suggestions on outfit and accessory choices…they were perfect for the look we were going for and I very much appreciated that you were then able to find locations and use props that matched that same “feel”.
The pictures are truly amazing! You captured her personality perfectly and were even able to get all of her different expressions that I know and love! I appreciated the assortment of poses and background settings too. The attention to detail is evident…I never had to worry about getting the perfect smile only to see that the prop had fallen over! I will truly treasure these pictures! I can’t help but look at them over and over again!”
Brynlee was such a joy to photograph! She is always happy and seems to be enjoying being in front of the camera 🙂 I am so grateful to Brynlee’s family for trusting me with these special photographs of their baby girl! Thank you for sharing with all the readers about your photography experience with me. Your feedback and kind words mean the world to me! 🙂
Beautiful kiddos, fun and exciting holiday photos this 2015 holiday season!
What an amazing, beautiful and fun studio photography session with such a cheerful and gorgeous little girl! Happy Birthday Nora!!!!
I loved this session with Nora and her parents just as much as I had enjoyed each and every session with this family! These 2 amazing parents instill happiness that Nora radiates into the world! I am blessed to watch this family grow for 3 years now… and I Love them to pieces!
Here is what Nora’s mom had emailed me to share with you all…
“…Nora has a deep love for reading and being read to. She loves all things animals with hippos and horses being her favorite animals at the moment. Lately she’s into playing dress up and putting together puzzles. Thanks to our most recent vacation, she now has a deep love for donuts!
Nora’s vocabulary is continuously growing. Everyday she surprises us by putting more words into sentences! It’s a joy to listen to her. Physically she loves to jump, spin, toss and catch. One of her great accomplishments right now is potty training even though we haven’t completely mastered it, she insists on doing things all on her own. We love that she is so eager to learn and is usually willing to try things at least once. Dad and I couldn’t be prouder of this precocious, independent girl!
As a family we love to travel, read together at bedtime, ride bikes, go for walks in our neighborhood or to the park. Enjoying dinner at the table every evening is a must for us as we like to share each others day.
And of course we choose to continue to use you as our photographer because of your ability to capture raw emotion in your images. Your always willing to do what it takes to make our entire family feel comfortable in front of the camera. Of course your patience with Nora has always been remarkable. You always make her feel at ease!
..I was hesitant about the outcome due to the dreary weather that day but was pleasantly surprised that the weather had no impact on our session. Once again your images didn’t disappoint! Our portraits are beautiful!
This session reflects on the connection we share as a family along with our individual relationships with Nora. Although Nora shares a different connection with me than that of her father, both are very important in shaping her as well as our family.
I wanted to capture the final weeks of my pregnancy along with our final days as a family of three. I wanted images that I could look back on to remind me of when it was just the three of us. A time when Nora taught us so much by making us parents.”
