What the people are saying (aka, reviews):

“We had a wonderful experience working with Mara, she was professional and responsive to all of my inquiries. She was warm, patient, and incredibly attentive to detail, capturing each special moment with care and artistry. Mara has a natural ability to make children feel comfortable in front of the camera, which truly brought out their personalities in every shot. All the photos were beautifully composed and thoughtfully edited, preserving the spirit and joy of the day. We're so grateful for her work and we will have her to capture our future events. I am highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented and kind photographer!”

“Needed a photographer in a hurry for a last-minute job and I am absolutely thrilled with Zalimar’s results! As a longtime PR professional, I can recommend Mara's work as being of the highest quality. She understood exactly what I was looking for – compelling action shots of people having fun while playing pickleball. Her results were fantastic; both the venue and the group playing were delighted with her images. She delivered lots of choices, in focus, on time. I couldn't be happier with the outcome. Highly recommend!”

“I used Mara for my bridal shower and wow- she was incredible! Super easy to work with, personable, reliable, and captured the day beautifully through her photos. She documented every detail perfectly including awesome candid shots of my guests and myself, detail shots, and group photos. She made sure I got any photo I wanted. She delivered the photos to me digitally just two days later which was so appreciated. I highly recommend Mara for your future photography needs!”

"It was wonderful having you and I really felt like you were just so attentive and thoughtful in your sort of way of moving around the room and asking who should be photographed with who and putting it all together and just being patient."

“Mara is insanely talented. I wanted to create a headshot that felt fun, and relaxed. With just one inspo photo, Mara came to my apartment with suggestions, full layouts, kindly adjusting set up to make sure we reached a photo that felt fun for my business. We started with a chill exercise and she started the whole process with saying "we can take as many as you need." It made me feel immediately at ease. I am 100% working with her in the future and highly recommend! Life saver.”
