Pleasure to work with

William said... Thank you Maria for capturing our wedding so beautifully! Thank you for being so accommodating with our customized package. Normally, we are both shy in front of the camera but you made it so easy and fun for us and everyone else. You were a true pleasure to work with and I highly recommend Maria to anyone in need of a photographer. We will definitely be using your services again in the future for any photography needs!

Best photographer experience!

Maria is a true gem - she made our day so easy and comfortable. We looked for awhile, discouraged by the prices and wondering if a photographer would work with our low-key microwedding. Maria gives incredible value for her time and her professionalism. She was so organized and focused, and really put us at ease on the day. Her energy is incredibly calming which is what you want on your wedding day. I also really appreciated how unobtrusive she was during the wedding - I've been in many weddings and had pushy photographers yelling and moving family members like chess pieces. None of that with Maria - all of our guests loved her too! I can't recommend her more highly. She's absolutely incredible. I'd hire her for any event!

Amazing Experience!

Maria was by far our favorite wedding vendor! She was so kind, caring, and responsive to all our questions and concerns. We had such a wonderful experience from the engagement shoot to wedding day and timeline discussions in between. She truly cares about capturing all the details and ensuring the day goes by smoothly by having the timeline, shot list, and detail box in order ahead of time. She does an amazing job with her turnaround as well. We received our wedding photos 2 weeks after our wedding! We already have her booked for a family beach session this summer!

Treasured Memories

Maria is an exceptional photographer. She blew my husband and I away with her incredible talent. She captured our fairytale beach wedding in all itโ€™s glory. Each photo had so much beauty and crystal clarity! She was a dream to work with. Super sweet and non-stressful. She went over a time line with us and set up of how photos would go with family. All went smoothly. We will treasure the amazing memories she created for us forever. I would highly recommend her for your wedding or any other event. She is amazing! You wonโ€™t be dissapounted.

Phenomenal photographer in so many ways!!

I am so happy we chose Maria to shoot our wedding day. She exceeded our expectations in many ways. Her preparedness and punctuality kept us on track throughout the day. She was such a pleasure to work with and rolled with all the punches - expected and unexpected - all while keeping a smile on her face. As an experienced and skilled photographer, she guided us through all the shots and was able to capture some truly beautiful photos that we will cherish forever. If you are considering Maria to shoot your upcoming event, take this as a sign to do it!! You will not be disappointed. Thank you again Maria!!

Highly recommend Maria - she's wonderful!

Maria was such a wonderful part of our wedding ceremony! I had contacted her several months prior about photographing our intimate, family-only church ceremony. She was very responsive, and made the next steps clear! She was creative and helped us capture some beautiful shots inside/outside of the church of both us the couple and our family! We love the photos!

Wonderful to Work With!

Maria has been an absolute pleasure to work with! I reached out to have Maria in the Fall of 2019 to help capture my surprise proposal in Avalon, NJ. We were so happy with how the photos came out and how responsive Maria was, that we knew we wanted to work with her again. We went on to have her capture our engagement session, backyard wedding in Sept 2020, and now wedding reception in May 2021. At each session, Maria was always prompt and prepared. She has a great eye for photo spots and gave us easy directions on how to pose. The one thing that we always appreciated was how quickly Maria was able to get our photos back to us, and the amount of amazing shots that were included in the full gallery. It was great getting those "sneak peaks" within a few hours of the shoot so that we could share the images with our friends and family. We also appreciate Maria's attention to detail and eye for setting up beautiful scenes. We definitely enjoyed working with Maria to capture our story!

Wonderful Experience!

Maria was the photographer of our dreams! Right from the first email, she was absolutely professional and made us feel completely comfortable. She knew the area and gave us excellent advice on locations and even ended up suggesting the spot we got married when torrential rain put the kibosh on our beach ceremony plan! Through rescheduling due to Covid, last-minute changes, specific requests, and flash-flooding, Maria was totally unfazed and just calmly rooted for us and took wonderful photos! I would recommend her to anyone!

New Jersey Wedding Photographer

Maria is the absolute best wedding photographer we could have asked for! From the first time I talked to her over the phone I knew I did not need to look any further. We instantly connected and she wants to do what you want! With the pandemic she was extremely accommodating from the start. We had to reschedule our engagement session first and a few weeks later we had to reschedule our wedding.When planning a new date for our wedding Maria completely worked around her schedule to help give us the date we wanted! Maria helped us from the beginning to the end with our timeline. Her professional opinion was more than appreciated. We got Married in Holgate Long Beach Island, New Jersey. Maria helped us pick a time when the lighting would be perfect and the images she capture are out of this world. When I view our gallery I cry every time and feel like I am reliving my special day. I am so grateful that we found an amazing photographer like her and we will definitely use her in the future!

Best photographer

Maria was amazing!!! I could not have picked a better person to capture our special day! She kept me sane while I was planning my wedding during the pandemic...she ensured me my day would be perfect and it was! She is very organized and had the timing planned perfectly for everything! She captured all of the special moments that we planned together and many more! Since we werenโ€™t able to have a normal first dance I had asked Maria if she could arrange for my husband and I to still dance to our wedding song in the vineyards at the venue we had our dinner at and she played the song for us.

Maria is amazing!

I planned my wedding in 4 weeks so I did not give Maria much notice when I inquired about her capturing my day. But she was responsive, flexible, and accommodating. She created a custom wedding package for my day. She arrived early and got so many amazing shots. Our gallery was ready within 2 weeks. I would absolutely recommend Memories by Maria!

Maria did an incredible job for our engagement and wedding photos! The pictures are absolutely stunning! Her talent and attention to detail had her at the right place at the right time, delivering a photo series that captures each moment from our perspective, as well as that of our family and guests. She was very accommodating and easy to work with, yet provided her photography services are set at an affordable rate! Maria delivered over 1,000 photos for our wedding! All of them are so beautiful.

The Sailor & The Mermaid

It was the most enchanting day and we never dreamt that the "feeling" of our wedding could be captured so perfectly. Every moment, every special touch, every surprise, every person....captured thru Maria's lens. When we were and when we weren't expecting it. Glances, hugs, tears, laughter, dresses, drinks, flowers, food. We will never forget ONE detail because we have this amazing wedding album that is our entire Memory.... By Maria

Amazing Maria!

Maria was so amazing from start to finish. She was very flexible and accommodating to our plans and requests. The day of, Maria was all over the place capturing beautiful shots and then followed us on quite the adventure through Atlantic City grabbing fun shots (in the freezing weather). My friends and family were asking for her info without even seeing the pictures because they loved her personality and saw how much she cared! But when we got the photos, holy cow!! They were stunning! Magazine worthy for sure! She also made incredible thank you cards that were a hit amongst all. We will be using Maria for every big life moment moving forward!!!! Thanks Maria!!!

Louie and Patty Married

Maria was such a pleasure to work with. She had wonderful ideas for engagement and wedding photos. She made our engagement session so much fun. On our wedding day I didn't feel like I was always taking photos. Maria just blended in and took great photos. Maria was very professional and detailed. I would recommend Memories by Maria Photography for any special occasion!

Look no further for the perfect photographer!!

We booked Maria to do our wedding photography based on the referral of some friends that had used her for family photos. We met with her for engagement photos, so we could all get to know each other a little better before our big day. I could immediately tell that Maria had โ€œan eyeโ€ for unique and special touches, based on the various settings she chose and ideas she incorporated into our pictures. We loved her work immediately. If you are looking for someone to capture your memories perfectly and naturally (not with โ€œstagedโ€ shots), then look no further. Maria recently photographed our evening wedding in November, and was able to work with the setting and lighting to capture our day beautifully. Sheโ€™s extremely talented, easy to work with, and very professional. We look forward to using her for family photos in the near future.
