Hello! Hola!
i'm Marianella
I’m so happy you are here!
Welcome to my world! I'm a Maryland-based photographer with roots in sunny Costa Rica. Brightening up moments is my forte, both behind the lens and in life. If you ask my husband, he'd tell you I'm the eternal optimist.
Love is the heartbeat of my life. I'm fortunate to share mine with an incredible partner who makes every journey, near or far, an adventure worth cherishing. Our greatest joys? Our daughter and son, who infuse each day with wonder, laughter, and endless surprises. And of course, our home is never short of furry companions!
As a mama to a little girl and boy, and a devoted wife to an amazing husband, my heart overflows with gratitude for the love and joy they bring into my life every day. Born in Costa Rica, the essence of "Pura Vida" runs deep within me, though I've found my home in Clarksburg, MD, where every corner holds a piece of our family's story.
When I'm not capturing memories, you'll find me soaking up the simple pleasures—quality time with family, exploring the great outdoors, relishing good food (especially chocolate!), and staying active. Every new experience, every new face, fuels my passion for storytelling.
I'm a firm believer in the beauty of imperfection, in capturing the raw, unfiltered moments that define real love and connection. Entrusting me with your story isn't just a job; it's a privilege I hold dear.
Let's create something magical together.


Becoming a mother has made me see the world with different and exciting eyes.

All those imperfect but perfect moments from our ordinary life but yet extraordinary existence.
My family inspired me to set up my photography business after realizing that having a collection of unique photographs is the best way to relive those cherished moments!
I enjoy being behind the camera and having the opportunity to leave my own legacy of creating beautiful and timeless images for you and those you love!
My creative path follows a lifestyle photography approach to create images driven by spontaneous moments. Offering gentle directions that encourage natural interaction and emotions. Capturing your life in a happy, fun and candid way.
