Marina, Localgrapher in Miami

Style:

“My mom’s favourite photographer”, one of my clients said. I love it.
Natural, comfy and cute – that’s what I’d add from myself.
My first priority, if I am working with clients, is to make them feel comfortable. If you feel good and self-confident, you look the same.
That’s why my clients – people of all genders and ages – always say the word “comfortable” in their reviews.
I treat people as I’d like to be treated.

Likes:

Lighthouses. Because I was growing up far from the sea, lighthouses always have been very mysterious to me. Even now, when walking near one of them, I feel like I am inside one of my childhood books. One of my most favorite photo spots, obviously.

Singing out loud. If you are stuck in traffic and some random girl is singing in the car next to yours – that’s probably me. It’s a perfect way to relieve some extra energy and make the lungs stronger.
I am often bringing my portable speaker to shoots. But don’t worry, that’s not for singing. Just to help you to get the right mood.

To make coffee. Yes, I more enjoying to make my coffee than drinking it. It’s probably about these small morning rituals which make your day better. Especially when I’m making pictures at sunrise. I have the joy of making coffee, and my model is happy to drink it.

Recommended places:

There are a lot of “TOP X places to see in Miami” lists.
But my favourite is:
1) Brickel. The perfect combination of the busy city life and nature breath on another side of the street.
2) Miami Design District. If you are into brands – that’s your happy place. What I like is the wide choice of colourful locations, so you can shoot in different styles by turning the camera to the next building.
3) Miami Beach. All these postcard’s lifeguard posts, beautiful pier, water, ocean… That’s Miami how you imagine it.
4) Coral Gables. Reeeeeaaally beautiful city in 2 train stops from Miami Downtown. Trees, old gates, charming streets.
5) Key Biscayne. Did I already tell you how much I do love lighthouses?..
