Meet Maia in Calgary

My style is a mixture of portraiture, details and emotions as they are what makes every experience different. I love telling your story through my photos. It is such an honour to capture couples, proposals, pregnancy announcments and family memories in our Rockies. I've been photographer for 20 years and I am still excited every time I met I am a natural light photographer who loves airy and candid photos. I want to give you works of art that communicates the essence of who you are, tells the story beyond what you see, and to give you valuable memories.

    Favourite Place to Shoot: Lake Minnewanka, Upper Kananaskis Lakes or Canmore are the best for scenic photos of the Rocky Mountains and magnificent nature as your background. They are also much less crowded but as beautiful as Lake Louise and Moraine Lake. However, my absolute favourite is Upper Kananaskis Lake and Peyto Lake!

Three Things

  1. I love photography because it allows me to preserve emotions that people never want to forget. A proposal last a moment, but photographs let you relive those feelings for generations. My goal is not just to take beautiful photos, but to capture the connection, excitement, nervous smiles, happy tears, and the atmosphere of the day exactly as it felt.
  2. A photoshoot with me feels very natural and relaxed. Most of my couples tell me at the beginning that they feel awkward in front of the camera, and by the end they are laughing, enjoying the experience, and forgetting the camera is even there. I gently guide you the entire time while still allowing real moments and emotions to unfold naturally.
  3. One thing I always recommend people experience while visiting Calgary and the Canadian Rockies is slowing down enough to truly enjoy the mountains at sunrise or sunset. Whether it’s watching the first light hit Moraine Lake, canoeing on Lake Louise, or simply standing beside a quiet lake in Kananaskis Country, there’s something incredibly peaceful and unforgettable about it. My home is Mediterranean and I moved to six months of winter with my husband.

We had a fantastic experience with Maia. We had never been to the area so her pre-shoot phone call for outfit coordination was great. She knew all the great locations around Lake Louise. Our kids had fun and it was a relaxed shoot. Love the photos and the experience. Highly recommend.
