Hi, I’m Mari!

I’m a family lifestyle photographer specializing in capturing the magic of motherhood, families, and newborns. Based in Durham, NC, I create heartfelt images that tell your family’s story and celebrate the beauty of everyday moments.

With a storytelling approach, I use creamy golden tones to craft images that feel warm, candid, and timeless. Whether shooting in natural light or welcoming families into my cozy backyard studio, my goal is to create a relaxed, joyful experience. If you're looking for someone to capture the genuine love within your family, I’d love to help create beautifully imperfect memories you’ll cherish forever.

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me enjoying life with my husband, our little boy, and our dog. I love spending my free time being a mama, thrifting for hidden treasures, tending to my garden, experimenting in the kitchen, and soaking up the simple joys of life.
