When you walk into my studio in Charleston, SC you will see a lot of different portraits. I have so many sizes, color schemes, and framing around the studio to really show you what a piece of art work looks like and you already begin to imagine something in your home. It's essential for me to display different sizes for visual people (which I am!) and it's very helpful for when you ask about sizing for me to show you that portrait in a certain size.
I love seeing artwork displayed and admired in the home. I often get pictures from my clients of their beautiful portraits displayed for all their friends and families and it makes my heart skip a beat. Capturing a family isn't just sitting behind the camera and snapping a couple of pictures. It's the hours of artwork to perfect the portrait and accentuating the little details you may of not even noticed. It's capturing the right light to highlight faces and eliminating the grainy feel you get when you take a picture on your iPhone. It's all tedious and rewarding work.
Capturing beautiful portraits also isn't a "one genre" thing either. Whether you hang your A Charleston Santa Experience portraits, Furry portraits, or Studio Classics portraits, it's all a story of your life and it's something that is beautiful to you. Capturing your family in many different stages of your life is truly a blessing and I love being a part of that. Don't just take it from me . . . these kind words are from one of my favorite clients :)
"From one artist to another I understand the amount of work that goes into portraiture. Maria’s attention to detail, her talent, creativity, and patience is beyond phenomenal! From the moment I saw her work I knew she was something special. Our Santa experience was one of the best holiday moments, that I now can freeze in time. To our latest visit where I would of never thought I would fall in love with a serious pose. She captured our family in such a beautiful way, and gave us something precious that we can now enjoy for a lifetime. We recommend her to everyone looking for something extra special to create family memories in the best way!"
