About Maya Papaya Pictures

Maya

Owner

So here's the tea... I'm a wise-cracking, extroverted Capricorn who excels at corralling your rowdy family for photos and charming Aunt Carol, the self-deemed professional iPad photographer. Ever since I was little, huddled on the couch with my five siblings rewatching The Lion King, I knew that I wanted to be a storyteller. Growing up in a creative household, I studied a wide range of arts before settling on filmmaking. I envisioned in my head that I would be the next Spielberg, but after shooting my first wedding in 2013 all my plans changed.

I first started in this industry as a filmmaker and transitioned to doing weddings after shooting my first one in 2013. Because of my background, I approach each wedding as if it were a film and make sure your photos have the best lighting, angles and that you and your partner feel comfortable being in front of the camera.

    AMAZING. Maya was so fun and mad the day a total delight. She captured moments of our day so authentically. The photos are exact memories and they are stunning. We got sneak peeks the very next morning after the wedding and were just obsessed. We absolute LOVED working with Maya.

    We were so lucky to have such an amazing photographer at our niece’s wedding & reception, where I was blessed to say the dinner prayer. You weren’t just behind the camera—you were part of the celebration. Personable, fun, and incredibly engaging, you brought so much warmth and energy to the day. Thank you for capturing the moments and helping create them. The photos will be cherished, but so will your presence!

    Maya is the best! As a wedding DJ, I work with quite a few photographers and when I see that my couple hires Maya, it makes me feel so at ease and so excited for my clients! Not only is Maya professional and so easy to work with, she also has such an incredible, infectious energy that makes the whole experience amazing! You can tell she loves her work and actually cares about your day! Her work is top notch, the vibes are top notch, and you'd be in the best hands! Get Maya for your wedding or anything else you'd want to elevate!
