About Me

Hi, I’m Marija - a passionate wedding and portrait photographer based in Italy. I specialize in capturing authentic, emotional moments in stunning locations like Pavia, Milano, Como, Florence and across the beautiful Italian landscape. I also love working on destination weddings throughout Europe.

My Style & Philosophy

If you're seeking a highly technical photographer, I might not be the perfect fit. I believe that true photography is about capturing genuine emotions and real personalities. My approach is relaxed, natural and candid - I focus on how I see and feel the people around me.

Most of my subjects are not professional models - they’re real people, just like you. My goal is to reflect their character and essence through my lens. I strive to create images that are alive, heartfelt and timeless.

What You Can Expect

As someone who is easygoing and friendly, I make the process enjoyable and stress-free. I love making my clients laugh and feel comfortable, so your personality shines through in every shot. I’ll help you prepare for your session by creating a timeline, offering suggestions and even providing moodboards or posing ideas - so when we start shooting, you can relax and simply enjoy the moment.

Professional & Prepared

Despite my relaxed style, I am highly professional and dedicated. I invest time in preparing for every event to ensure everything runs smoothly. My promise is to deliver beautiful, cinematic-style photos - raw, genuine, and full of life - typically within a week after your wedding.

Based in Italy, Available Worldwide

While I am rooted in Italy, mainly around Lake Como, Milan and Tuscany, I am available for destination weddings across Europe. Trust me to tell your story through authentic images you’ll cherish forever.
