About Maya Papaya Pictures
Maya
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.

The Most Amazing Wedding Photographer!
Maya Papaya Pictures was an absolutely amazing wedding photography team to work with. From the very beginning, Maya’s communication was outstanding, she was so on top of every detail, ensuring we had everything we needed and validating any worries or concerns we had along the way. Our wedding gallery exceeded every expectation, capturing our special day in the most beautiful and authentic way. Maya was not just a photographer, she was truly a lifesaver. She kept me calm and present amidst the stress and chaos, and somehow made my husband, who hates getting his picture taken, feel completely comfortable, relaxed, and even have fun with it! She also made sure that every special, sentimental moment we had carefully planned into our day was captured flawlessly. That means the world to us, especially now, as both of our grandmas have since become very sick. Maya preserved those moments with them so beautifully, and now we have those memories to cherish forever. Her presence and light were felt by everyone, and she became such a highlight of our day that we couldn’t imagine it without her. Honestly, if we could re-live our wedding over and over again, a huge reason would be because of Maya. Maya and her team were a blast to work with, they weren’t just behind the camera but right there with us, even hitting the dance floor and celebrating with our family, which remains one of our favorite memories. Guests still compliment us on how incredible our photographers were. Truly, Maya is so much more than just a wedding photographer, she curates the entire wedding experience. She is the ultimate wedding guru, guiding the day to flow in the best way possible. If you want your wedding to not only be beautifully documented but also to feel seamless, joyful, and stress-free, Maya is the only option. I wouldn’t change a single thing, and honestly, I would have wanted her there as a guest even without the camera, she is that wonderful!
Maya is magical!
Maya was the photographer at my best friend‘s wedding, making the entire day magical. I’ve been in many weddings, and the photographer truly can make the experience. Maya definitely made it! She was supportive, fun, calm, creative, and helpful. She provided a fun environment for everyone so that we felt relaxed and natural in the photos. The best thing she did do was capture the authentic love we had for each other! Choose Maya if you want a fun, loving, inclusive, and kind photographer!
Best wedding photographer I’ve ever come across!
I was a bridesmaid in the wedding that Maya Papaya Pictures was taking photos at and I've never had more fun with a photographer! She laughed, danced, and sang with us. Her so so fun communication style made the whole experience incredibly enjoyable. I 100% know that our pics came out better because of how much fun we had with her. 10 out of 10 recommend Maya Papaya Pictures!
