2025 projects
In 2025, I leaned fully in to documentary-style photography and met some amazing individuals along the way. From photographing a tranquil yoga retreat in the Scottish Highlands, to documenting everyday athletes, families, and business-owners... 2025 will be difficult to top.
Hi, I'm Mariah.
As a born creative, I never found a place where I perfectly fit... so I carved out a space for myself. Blending authenticity, emotion, and movement, I bring my clients' stories to life through impactful, documentary-style photography.
I'm a firm believer that people are capable of far more than they realize, and I'm passionate about showcasing this through photos that reflect strength, resilience, creativity, ingenuity, and everyday wins.
Behind the scenes, I'm a mother to two angel babies in Heaven, an athletic trainer, and an avid traveler. I understand the highs, the lows, and the in-betweens of life, and believe that all of those moments deserve to be documented.
Join me in my exploration of the intersection of joy, discipline, human resilience, and greatness.
Reach out. I'd love to hear From you.
While fitness and lifestyle shape much of my work, I love documenting all authentic stories. Whether it’s a wedding, a portrait session, or something completely unique—let’s create together.
