THE EXPERIENCE

I want all of my sessions to be an experience, not just two uncomfortable hours of awkward smiles and fake posing. That's why I take a different approach in how I document your moments.

I invite you to read through this page and see if my experience aligns with what you're looking for.

What you will get from your session…

  • Together, we will create a session that looks and feels authentically you. This way, even a million years from now, you’ll be able to remember how it felt to be you at this moment in your life.

  • I love to spoil everyone around me, including my clients. My goal is to create an experience, not just a photoshoot. I want the entire process to become a cherished memory, not just the photos you receive. To do this, I’ll take the time to hear your story and build a connection even before we start shooting.

  • By getting to know each other before your session, I'll help you feel comfortable enough to be your truest, weirdest, funniest, prettiest, most candid self. This way, your session won't feel like an awkward two hours you can't wait to finish. Instead, it will be a fun experience for you, me, and anyone else involved. All you need to do is show up for yourself.

  • You'll receive candid photos capturing this moment in your life, free from any cringe-worthy posing or self-consciousness about how you look. No awkward fake smiles, just genuine moments.

  • While I promise a minimum number of photos for each session, there's no maximum limit to how many images you'll receive. I'm so focused on capturing the process and creating a memorable experience that I might exceed that minimum—by a little or a lot—and I'll deliver all of it to you at no extra cost, of course. I want you to have as many great images as possible, and I won't hold back anything from you.

  • I deliver all my images through a beautiful online gallery where you can favorite them, download them, and log in as often as you like. You can also conveniently order products like albums, prints, and photo boxes directly from the gallery. Each product is designed and curated by me to ensure the highest quality. This way, you won’t leave your photo prints or album on your to-do list forever—they're ready to be cherished right from the gallery.

FAQ 〰️

  • It depends on the type of session you choose from. Different session lengths will have different amount of photos delivered. Make sure to consider the amount of photos you are after when deciding which session you wish to hire.

  • The session takes as long as we need to get great shots of this moment in your life between 45-90 minutes. I encourage you to leave at least 2 hours free for our photoshoot just so we don't need to rush it.

  • Different session lengths and images have different values to it. My shortest session start at $050 and most customers typically spent $950. At the time of deciding on which session you wish to hire, you will have all information about the prices and deliverables so there are no surprises at the end (I'm terrified of hidden costs of things so I'm always 100% transparent and upfront about costs).

  • No, this price is fixed.

    However, If you want to book a session but can't afford it at the moment, feel super comfortable in getting in touch and asking for a payment plan.

  • While my home is in Vancouver I am open to go literally anywhere. If you are not based in Vancouver, you can hire me to travel and add the extra cost to the session investment.

    You can also keep an eye on my Travel Schedule page to see when I'll be near you.

    I'm frequently travelling to the US and Brazil which is my second home.

  • It is really up to you. I personally like candid shots that really show our truest selves but ultimatelly the main important thing is that you feel yourself - and gorgeous in it. If you do decide to get professional hair & makeup done I strongly recommend starting them at least 2 hours before our session.

  • No. When you hire my services you get the edited images. But you can ask for up to 2 adjustments to the edits. I will make sure you receive them the way you're expecting them to be.

  • ‘I did my maternity session with Mafe a few days ago and I am still digesting these perfect moments that she captured from me. She has such an incredible and artistic sense, also she's so kind, always smiling and making the environment so light, so fun. I couldn't be happier with the result.’
