Meet Maria Jean:

Your New

Photographer

and Friend

Maria Jean turned her lifelong passion into a career in 2021. Before stepping into photography, she spent over a decade working in immigration law—a field centered around reuniting families. That understanding of connection and the importance of holding onto meaningful moments is what led her back to photography in the first place.

Maria has a real appreciation for the connections that bring people together. Her background helps her connect easily with all kinds of people and families, and she always makes sure their stories are at the heart of every session.

Her style blends thoughtfully composed portraits with the natural feel of lifestyle photography. She gently guides you through the session with relaxed posing, letting real moments and emotions shine through.

What truly sets Maria apart is her eye for detail and the ease she brings to every shoot. Clients often say it feels more like hanging out with a friend than a photo session. Known for her playful, easygoing nature, Maria creates a fun, comfortable space where your story can unfold naturally.

If you’re looking for a photographer who not only captures beautiful images but also helps create lasting memories, reach out. Maria is happy to meet over coffee, tea, or FaceTime to see if you’re a good fit. Your story matters—and she’s here to help you tell it in the most unforgettable way.

 

Note: Born in Manila, Philippines, and raised in South Philadelphia, she currently resides in the South Jersey.

In addition to her photography work, she is a wife and a dedicated mother to three beautiful young daughters.
