About Maya Papaya Pictures
Maya Papaya Pictures
Your wedding photographer should be a perfect mix of a fly-on-the-wall and a director. Not someone who’s going to yell cut during your ceremony or give you exact directions on how to deliver your vows, but someone who will guide you on this super important day and deliver the photos you’ve been dreaming of. Whether it’s through my specific formulas for creating ideal timelines or managing your family for hassle-free group photos, you’ll experience this direction throughout wedding planning (Pre-Production), your wedding day (Principal Photography), and delivery (Post-Production).
Preserving your most meaningful moments as they unfold like scenes from a movie. With a background in filmmaking, my job is to approach your wedding like I would a film – balancing between the director and a fly-on-the-wall approach. My primary focus is on documenting all of the emotions in the room, that way in the end you get photos that reflect how the day felt, and not just what your shoes looked like.

Maya made our day perfect!
Working with Maya as our wedding photographer was an incredible delight! She has so much enthusiasm that it is impossible not to feel at ease and smile when working with her, even when you feel awkward taking lovey dovey photos! She is understanding and flexible, we had a few scheduling snafus on my end and she still made the effort to meet with us. She took amazing photos at our wedding and was incredibly efficient. I got to fully enjoy my wedding and cocktail hour without having to stop for a million photos, which was wonderful. My family loved her as well, she took charge and got everyone where they needed to be, right on cue. She takes the most amazing candid photos, which was one of the reasons I was drawn to her work in the first place. I adore Maya and hope I get to work with her again for all my professional photography needs.

FANTASTIC PHOTOGRAPHER
I CANNOT RAVE ENOUGH ABOUT HOW FANTASTIC WORKING WITH MAYA WAS FOR OUR WEDDING! Maya was dependable, detail-oriented, and you could tell she was truly focused on capturing us organically as a couple. Plus, she’s a hoot and holler! So fun and energetic :) I’m over the moon with how the photos came out, and I could not be happier I picked such a fantastic photographer! Do yourself a favor and go with Maya!!!

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.

Most Amazing Photographer
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!
