- MakiOwner/Lead PhotographerHi, I’m Maki :) I’m an easygoing, relaxed photographer who loves getting to know couples and hearing their unique love stories. I’ve admired art from a young age, and when I discovered photography, something just clicked. Over the years, I honed my craft, and when my friends started getting married, I realized how magical weddings are—and I fell in love with capturing those moments. Every wedding is full of beauty, emotion, and fleeting moments, and I feel so lucky to preserve them for couples to treasure forever. I can’t wait to meet you and be a part of your special day!

Maki was our wedding photographer. She is amazing!!! She is professional, patient and efficient. By talking about professional and efficient . I don’t know if you guys ever have a ...
photographer before but this plays a big part. We didn’t have to pose anything for her to capture. Talking about on a day that you are nervous, busy and want to make sure everything is perfect. Her pictures are literally tells all the joy and moments of it. It is super precious that you want to keep all the photos. Oh! Not to mention. I didn’t even notice her too much. She is like invisible. But she keeps “ follow” you. I was just amazed how good the picture came out and how a good photographer could be. I rarely write any reviews on anywhere. She earns this one. I want everyone to know!!!!!!’

positive presence to have around on our special day.
The photos turned out absolutely beautiful. I truly can’t thank her enough! She worked some kind of magic — I’ve honestly never looked so good in photos in my life.
She cared about us as if it were her own wedding. She made sure we stayed on track with our timeline, and it was so fun hearing my family laughing and enjoying taking photos with her. Thank you so, so much, Maki!!

I cant say enough how amazing of a job Maki did! She went above and beyond in every way! We did an out of state wedding and she went ahead of time to send me pictures of the venue ...
so I knew what to expect. During the wedding she stayed out of the way but got the most amazing photos! She knew exactly what kind of photos we would always treasure. She was kind and amazing to work with. She got the photos to us really fast and they were beautiful. She also made it easy to download.

ver hired. She takes the time to ask how you're feeling, whether you're happy with the photos, and genuinely cares about capturing what matters most to you. But above all, Maki's photography skills are truly exceptional. She has an incredible eye for those fleeting, in-between moments--the ones that feel small in real time but turn out to be the memories you cherish the most. Her photos are full of life, emotion, and meaning. Whether you're planning a big event or an intimate gathering, I can't recommend Maki enough. She brings warmth, professionalism, and true artistry to every shoot. I'm so grateful to have found her, and I would absolutely work with her again.
