Welcome to my turn-of-the-century renovated portrait photography studio, it is a private space that allows you to relax, enjoy, and celebrate you and your dreams. My studio is located in the West Wash Park neighborhood of Denver, Colorado. My work is best described as authentic, unique, and interesting, not your standard headshot!
Real expressions for personal branding. I love to create amazing portraits for local and international business owners, bloggers, entrepreneurs, authors, coaches, and Denver professionals. For business folks, I offer more than headshots, I customize your photography session to showcase your brand and intention, so you end up with a collection of images you can use for your marketing needs.

You deserve to be seen, you brand story deserves to be told. You deserve to have beautiful images that show your intention and your unique essence. Excellent marketing images can make your business shine and empower you to reach your goals. Years ago, I was stressed and sweaty. I was going to a friend with "a really good camera" to get a headshot for my nutrition business.
Need a quick update? I got you! I created these quick sessions for the busy professional in my quaint renovated church studio -- still incorporating body language, micro expressions to show your intention, light retouching, digital delivery (typically within a day or two of your session). Starting at $250 for 2 images.
No need to wait, I set aside 4 short headshot sessions a week so you can get in, out and back to doing what you love, back to making an impact, back to changing lives. These take about 20-30 minutes max, so you can still grab your lunch or coffee before heading back. Contact me today to book your quick headshot session.
Personal branding images show your brand story, your intention, and your brand story. I work to show your prospective clients who you are, what you do, and what is unique about you and your business. Personal Branding is an extension of who you are - an important way in which people remember you in business or your personal life or dating.
My studio is setup with the intention of being a place to relax and be at ease. It's a little sanctuary from the outside world. My West Washington Park, Denver studio is a unique turn-of-the-century renovated brownstone church. I worked to create a space that is relaxing, and spacious enough to allow for greater creativity, and most of all, a haven from daily stress.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness
Mariah provides amazing quality and connection. I got a series of professional pics taken for my business. I felt vulnerable being in front of a camera, and Mariah was able to bring out the best in me. I loved the work. Totally recommend for a business/professional shots.

I'm so happy with my branding photos!! Mariah knows how to capture your best, most natural self in your portraits. She makes you feel comfortable and guides you every step of the way. Getting my hair and makeup styled there and not having to worry about it was so fantastic! She fully understands who you are and your business before she picks up the camera and doesn't turn you into someone you're not. She truly is one of the best!!

Working with Mariah has been an absolutely wonderful experience. She took the time to get to know me, my business and my brand. Her vision and resulting pictures are outstanding - more than I could have hoped for. I will definitely use her for future shoots and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer.

Mariah is so professional, helpful, and fun when it comes to getting headshots done! I've had the pleasure of working with Mariah countless times as her makeup artist (and a couple times as her client in front of the camera) and am always blown away by her talent for capturing exactly what each client is looking for. She takes the time to get to know each client and their brand, while coming up with creative ways to showcase individuality, personality, and artistic expression. It is always such a joy to work with Mariah!

My company re-branded in 2019 and the original photographer we picked for the brand photo shoot fell through. I ended up needing someone fast to make the launch deadline our creative director set.
Mariah more than stepped up. Within a week we had photos taken and returned to us. Edits were done in two. Don't let her speed belie her talents, either. She coordinated hair, makeup, props, made it all on-brand, and - most importantly - made it fun in that incredibly short time. Having such a gorgeous studio to experiment in was just a bonus.

I absolutely LOVE the headshots that Mariah took for me! She made me very comfortable (and I hate to have my photo taken) and tried multiple poses and techniques to get the very best photo. I had fun at the shoot - her studio is absolutely gorgeous! - and it was really nice to have a makeup artist there as well to help me look my best. I highly recommend Mariah and looking forward to another new headshot in February!

Love, love, love the photographs!!
Mariah is amazing to work with! I am not comfortable in front of the camera and after speaking with Mariah on our consultation call, I knew I wanted to work with her. She takes the time to get to know you and listens to your needs and your concerns and she made the process fun and puts you at ease.
When we were looking at the images, I was blown away! I feel that Mariah captured my essence in the photographs.
Days after the shoot, I keep reflecting on how I felt calm and peaceful during the entire process. I cannot recommend Mariah enough.

Mariah has a lovely way of making me feel at ease and photogenic! Her studio is so beautiful that my nervousness begins to shrink right away. Mariah has a natural, conversational way of lighting me up from the inside out with insightful questions, then posing me very comfortably and shooting quickly. In about 15 min, I am delighted to review my best photos ever!

Mariah makes personal branding so fun! I've had her do many head-shots for myself and my team, as well as other brand photos, and it's just so wonderful and easy every time. Her studio is delightful, she makes the whole thing so painless, and the results are simply stunning. Love LOVE LOVE working with Mariah.

I'm usually behind the camera for family photos, but as my husband and I were celebrating a milestone anniversary, I wanted some good couple photos. They came out beautifully.
Also wanted some shots of myself. I was nervous, but Mariah was SO comfortable to be around, it was actually fun! She made me look like me-and good! Thank you Mariah!

Mariah did my professional profile shots. I could not be more happy with how they turned out. The whole process exceeded my expectations. She made me feel comfortable and relaxed during the session. She took so many good shots, I had a hard time deciding which ones I liked best. I highly recommend using her next time you need photos taken!

Mariah is a wonderful photographer and consummate professional. She is fun, energetic, easy to work with and takes beautiful pictures. She took photos of our family for the holidays and worked both with young children/toddlers and adults. Everyone was comfortable in her care, and she has a way about her that puts you at ease and takes the stress out of picture-taking.
Her guided directions regarding lighting, stance, and positioning were professional and helpful. And the pictures turned out wonderfully! Everyone looked so happy and natural. If you are looking for a photographer, I strongly recommend
