Meet Julia! Julia was so fun to work with and such a pleasure to speak to. She's so bright for a nine year old! She was also so kind. A lot of times children are shy towards me because I'm a new person but Julia wasn't. She was excited and full of life for this session. She listened so well and was so invested in what I was doing. It made me so happy to work with her! "When Maria presented the portraits to me I was stunned!  Magnificent!  It is evident Maria has found her passion.  She’s a lovely, talented woman and artist.  Thank you for capturing my daughter’s beauty and innocence at such a special time in her life.  I will cherish my daughter’s portraits for a lifetime." - Kelly, Julia's mom.

Oh, Ethan! Ethan showed up to my studio wearing a bowtie. A man after my own heart! He is such a gentle soul and I loved working with him. . . I mean, he has red hair. Anyone who knows me knows I'm partial to the red hair! He was one of the most well-mannered young men I've ever met. Everything was yes ma'am! You could tell he takes in everything, as well. He watches and examines and I thought it was so fun to just see how he takes things in. He has a curiosity and was patient to see how things worked. I loved working with him and his little brother was adorable, too!
