I am here to tell YOUR story

Hello, my name is Mariya.

I am a portrait photographer based in Solihull/Birmingham, UK.

I believe that every one of us has a story to tell, and portrait photography is both a powerful and fun way to do it. And it works no matter what your story is about - your character and beauty, your aspirations and achievements, your feelings and special moments with the loved ones.

I do both traditional and lifestyle portraiture. Traditional portraits are posed and directed, while the lifestyle ones are more spontaneous and dynamic. I often blend both styles and, most importantly, adjust to your preferences.

I photograph both indoor and outdoor, but in either case I primarily work with natural light which I find to be the most flattering and beautiful.

I am a big fan of authenticity and minimalism and always aim for a natural, simple and elegant look.

I photograph all people, no matter their age, gender, race etc, as I truly believe that everyone of us is unique and beautiful.

Feel free to explore my portfolio on this website and please do not hesitate to get in touch if you would like me to be your photographer.

I am here to tell YOUR story.
