My love for photography may have started when I was 6 after attending a wilderness photography class for children in Yosemite. Using disposable cameras, I was excited to see what I had captured come to life. That desire to capture beauty never left. I started taking photos professionally in 2015, and have done numerous weddings around the country since. Currently based in El Paso, Texas, I strive to have my work tell a story, capturing the emotion of a moment that will last a lifetime. Whatever your photography needs are, I am honored to be a part of it and look forward to meeting you.

As soon as we saw Maya's photos, we knew we had to book our wedding with her! Maya is exceptionally creative and talented, which is reflected in her photos. She was professional, a delight to work with, and kept an open line of communication with us. We booked her for our engagement and wedding photos, and she delivered beautiful photos each time within the stated time frame. She also helped us design a photo album included in our package, and the quality was excellent! We would recommend Maya 100%!

We couldn't be happier with our choice of photographer for our wedding day! From start to finish, Maya was not only incredibly sweet but also so easy to work with. She made the whole experience feel seamless and fun. Throughout the day, she provided helpful guidance on how to pose, ensuring every shot turned out beautifully. What we loved most, however, were the candid moments she captured – they truly brought our day to life and showed the emotion of the day in such a genuine way. A picture really does speak a thousand words, and Maya has an amazing talent for capturing those important moments. We’re so grateful we had her by our side to document our big day. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer. 10/10!

Although this was the first time my fiancé and I had ever done a photography session, Maya helped relieve our nerves by creating a fun and comfortable environment! She did an AMAZING job on our engagement photos and we are very grateful for the beautiful memories we get to look back on. We will be reaching out again for her services for our Wedding Day!

We couldn't have asked for a better photographer. Maya was professional and had great communication throughout the process. I was impressed by her level of organization and adherence to the timelines she provided. Maya's warm and friendly personality made her a pleasure to work with, especially during the event. I am not a fan of taking pictures, but her guidance and feedback helped ease my anxiety and made me feel beautiful. The photos came out great and really showcased her talent. Highly recommended!

Maya was our wedding photographer and made everything so easy! She’s an easygoing and clear communicator. My husband and I don’t feel super comfortable in front of a camera but getting beautiful portraits during our cocktail hour was a breeze with her direction. She took the day-of changes in our schedule in stride and we were so happy with the mix of posed and candid photos in our wedding gallery. The album that comes with her packages is a beautiful keepsake.

Maya is THE BEST of them all. She truly cares about her work but most importantly her clients. I hired her for my wedding this past December & I am so happy we chose to go with her. The church I was having my wedding at recommended her based on a previous wedding she did at the church. They described her as professional, kind, and emphasized her work being spectacular. I can confirm all was true.
As with any wedding I had issues with other vendors but the one vendor that I didn’t have any problems with was with Maya. I recommend her hands down. Any other family party or event we need a photographer we will be calling Maya back, she has earned our business from now on.
If you truly want beautiful photos, with a very a professional person who cares. Maya is the one for you.
THANK YOU MAYA a million times these photos will be cherished for my many decades to come. I wish you much success on your photography business. You will be successful, you have the gift of photography. Thank you again.

I cannot express enough the degree at which Maya excels in all aspects of her service.
Communication with Maya was always reliable and she made sure we met up at planned intervals before (and after) the day of the wedding in order to be certain everything would come out as desired. What makes Maya stand out -- aside from her beautiful photography -- is that she really is a package deal no matter the degree of her service. She is on top of her business, very knowledgeable in her profession, and incredibly kind. Her personality helps brighten and relieve any stress surrounding the wedding, and the photographs you end up with will be worth every cent.
Both her and Ivan (her videographer) were great at adapting to the day, as well as giving advice for the best product based on what my husband and I previously discussed wanting. They both worked with me to be sure I could get as much as I wanted within my price range in order to make my day as special as can be. I cannot fully articulate how appreciative I am and how much I recommend not only Maya, but her videography bundle.

Maya was highly communicative throughout the process from start to finish. She had several meetings to discuss agenda, pricing, what photos we wanted, and her process and thoughts. She was very organized and prepared, having a list of suggested shots and ideas that worked well with our own. The day of the wedding she was amazing! She showed up early and prepared, was very flexible on time and location, came up with some amazing shots and poses on the spot, and even stayed late to make sure she got the best photos she could. After the wedding, her review of the book was incredible. She has a wonderful eye for design and shots, and the layout of the album was exactly what we were thinking of.
Maya is a delight. She has a fantastic creative vision, and we were very lucky to have found her. Having her as part of our wedding was a great choice, and we highly recommend her to anyone, for any photography you might want done. We can’t wait to hire her again for maternity shots, as well as other family photos in the years to come.

My wife and I were able to find Maya online. We looked at her photos online and immediately appreciated her talent for photography. She was professional with us but also put us at ease through her excitement to photograph us. She did not give off any, "this is a paycheck" vibes. When we got our pictures back, my wife and I loved them all. She was able to capture every moment that we'd want to remember. Her online distribution system worked well and easy to navigate. If we had any questions she would respond in a timely manner. All in all 10 out of 10.

Maya was amazing! She is the sweetest person and took care of us every step of the way. From the planning phase through the actual wedding she made sure we were comfortable. She was flexible the day of our wedding and made sure we got those specific shots we wanted. I can’t thank her enough for catching us in the most beautiful moments. These are shots I will cherish forever. Picking a photographer for the most important day of our lives was not easy and I’m so glad we chose her. Thank you Maya!

Choosing a wedding photographer is no small decision, but from the moment we discovered Maya's work, we knew she was the one. Growing up in a family of photographers and having seen firsthand the skill and dedication required to capture a wedding, Maya's work immediately stood out to me among the many I've encountered. Her rare blend of rich, natural colors and exquisite composition creates images that are both timeless and deeply personal, surpassing anything I could have imagined for our wedding.
From our initial Zoom meeting to the detailed prep before our wedding, Maya's customer service was impeccable. She was not just a photographer but a guide, helping us navigate the complexities of wedding planning with ease. Her thoughtful and organized approach made us feel confident we could fully immerse ourselves in our special day.
On the day of the wedding, my wife and I mentioned to each other that we had made the right choice. Maya’s presence made us feel we were in capable hands to capture the memories we were living. However, despite knowing we liked her, there was nothing like seeing those first sneak peeks shortly after the wedding. When we saw our photos, we were left truly speechless. To this day, we are so glad the stars aligned, allowing us to experience one of the most important days of our lives through the lens of Maya Isabella Photography.
Beyond her photography, Maya's all-around expertise shone through. She assisted us in selecting vendors and coordinating our creative team, demonstrating her versatility and commitment to our overall experience.
In summary, Maya Isabella Photography was the best choice we could have made for our wedding. Her work is more than photographs; it's a journey back to those beautiful moments. We're forever grateful that our paths crossed with Maya's. To any couple searching for a photographer who can capture the heart of your wedding day, look no further than Maya Isabella Photography.
Maya, thank you for turning our memories into masterpieces. Your talent and dedication are unparalleled. We couldn't have imagined our day without you!

Maya did an absolutely incredible job from start to finish! She was fully invested in capturing our vision and oh did she capture it! We asked for candid photos of the event and we got some amazingly beautiful photos! They are serving memories for a lifetime! She was there early and even stayed after her slotted time to make sure we got the best photos in the light we had available (White Sands wedding!). The editing was phenomenal but it still remained authentic and real. Maya was such a joy to be around. Her energy was infectious and she was such a pleasure to work with. I’m so thankful she chose us in return of us choosing her!

Maya is an amazing photographer. She captures every single moment that you wouldn't think of and has some amazing ideas when it comes to lighting and backgrounds. She makes you feel comfortable and captures you in the most beautiful way. She truly cares about her clients and meets with them beforehand. She asks if there is any specific pictures you would like and does an amazing job at capturing those moments. We asked for a golden hour picture as our only request and she made sure that we got the picture we wanted. Thank you Maya for the amazing engagement and wedding pictures!

Maya is a phenominal photographer and is incredibly talented! Not only are the pictures you see on her social media and website beautiful, but every single shot she takes, even those not posted, are just as beautiful and just as "instagram worthy". She goes above and beyond, is detail oriented, and has great professionalism. From meeting with us before our wedding, to our engagement shoot, and finally our wedding day, she was incredibly sweet and made us feel comfortable the entire time. We knew we could trust her to capture everything so beautifully without any reservations.
Maya exceeded all of our expectations for what we could ever wish for in a photographer/videographer and would book her a thousand times again. It is easy to see the passion Maya has for her work as she always has a smile on her face, behind the camera. The photos she takes are candid and natural while still having a glam factor. In addition to our wedding she also did a doggy studio photoshoot (very adorable). She is multifaceted and her skills can be seen across settings and occassions as well.
The moments Maya captures will truly live a lifetime. We are very grateful to have met her. THANK YOU, MAYA❤️

We've been working with Maya for about a year and a half now, from our engagement photos to the completion of our wedding album. We can't speak highly enough of her work and professionalism. From the beginning, she was understanding, made us feel comfortable, and produced stunning photos that we'll cherish for the rest of our lives. During our wedding (which at times was hectic, as all weddings are!) she and her fellow photographer were a calming presence who adapted to our needs and scheduling. We are so elated that they were part of this wonderful day.

We are SO lucky to have found Maya. We had a small shorter wedding and Maya helped find us a package that would work for our day and budget. Maya went above and beyond to make sure we got the best photos, and she made us feel extremely comfortable the whole time. I am honestly a self conscious person and Maya made it really easy and fun and I felt like a beautiful bride. She got pictures of absolutely everything we asked for and more, and the pictures were just stunning. I will definitely be recommending her to anyone who needs an event photographer, she's the best!

Maya’s photography is creative and stunning. She sought out multiple angles and was able to capture the feel of the whole event. She gave us tips to help with our ceremony pictures and was just generally the easiest person to work with! She was super easy to get a hold of and I had no trouble communicating with her about the event even though I was wedding planning from 4000 miles away!!

Maya Isabella’s photos that she did for my wife’s and I wedding was one on the highlights at the end of the whole thing. Her captivity and creation that is seen in each picture is why it is being talk about weeks after. She was on time and even help us stick to our itinerary to make sure she captured everything we wanted that we felt was most important. She encouraged both our ideas and hers. She was more than happy to take photos of our family and friends when they asked as well as encouraged others it’s okay to take pictures. That’s how we knew she loves what she does. She offers a lot especially if you don’t know what to ask for. Highly recommend.

Maya is amazing!!! From the our first conversation with her, my husband and I were like we need to book her. We could tell immediately how passionate she is about her work. Maya really listened to what we wanted and also gave us suggestions which we would had never thought about. We loved every single photo she took and can't wait for our wedding album. Do yourself a favor as soon as you find Maya book her and stop the search.

Do yourself a favor and book Maya Isabella Photography as your photographer for any event needing one! Her work is dazzling and personalized. Before our wedding, she asked us what kinds of moments/scenes we would want pictures of. Maya got every shot that we requested and more! They were all beautiful, and she posed us and captured other moments that we didn't know we needed until we saw the photos. I don't even like having pictures taken of myself, but on the day of the wedding, my favorite part was taking photos with Maya behind the camera. I suddenly felt so comfortable in front of the camera because of Maya's overall bright yet comforting personality. Planning a wedding is stressful as it is, not to mention the stress on the actual wedding day. But rest assured that if you have Maya Isabella Photography doing the photos/camera work, it will all turn out perfect. Plus, her rates are so good too, are you kidding me! Maya Isabella Photography is the total package.

Choosing Maya as our photographer was the best decision we made for our wedding. I hate getting my picture taken but she made it an enjoyable experience and allowed me to change things as I wanted. She was very flexible and very understanding of my busy schedule which I'm incredibly thankful for. My entire family is raving about how absolutely beautiful the pictures from our engagement shoot and our wedding were. She's worth everything she charges and then some. I'm so happy that I chose Maya for our photos and would recommend her to absolutely everyone!

Maya did an incredible job. I really can’t say enough. She posed us well for our photos and pretty much every single one looks good. Maya got great candid photos at the wedding and managed to quickly take perfect family photos which is no small task considering the size of the families. More than a great photographer, Maya is excellent at editing photos and does it so much faster than anyone I’ve encountered! She took cool drone photos and videos as well!

My husband and I had an extremely short engagement of about three weeks, and as many of you know, finding a photographer can be difficult. Maya was everything we wanted and more. She was kind, personable, and fun, all while being professional. She exceeded all expectations. My husband and I are not photogenic, but our photos came out incredible. She gave us suggestions for poses, what to do with our hands, and how to look at one another.
Our photos came out phenomenal, and they came back to us quickly. They were professionally edited. I had a scar on my left hand that Maya was able to photoshop out, and it was seamless.
To anyone looking to hire Maya, do it. I would hire her again for any photoshoot.

Tener a Maya como nuestra wedding photographer fue el mejor regalo de bodas, nos encantó la manera tan natural que tiene de trabajar, todo fluyó muy espontáneamente y todo ello se reflejó en nuestras fotos. Es 100% profesional, confiable, muy puntual, en ningún momento de la boda dejo de fotografiar; también ella va a reflejar en tus fotos exactamente lo que estás buscando. En verdad, si buscas tener los mejores recuerdos de los momentos más importantes de tu vida, get Maya. She’s just the best.
