About Maria A. Garth Photography

Maria A. Garth Photography

Owner and Photographer

I’m Maria, an experienced wedding photographer specializing in multicultural and Western celebrations. As a child, I developed a passion for the arts and culture that only continued to grow with me. After studying photography in college, I decided to pursue wedding photography and have never looked back. I’ve found this path to be more fulfilling than I ever imagined possible, and have settled into my photojournalistic style over the years. I love photographing moments that unfold spontaneously. If you’re looking to capture your love in a way that feels authentic and creative, I’m here for you.

I'm looking to document the spontaneous, authentic, and emotional moments of your wedding chapter, as well as the love and details, through creative imagery and storytelling. To capture moments in such an organic and authentic way has been a never-ending process, which fills me with so much joy and excitement.

    One of the best decisions my now-husband and I made for our wedding was working with Maria for our photographs. Initially, I loved her photography style from her online galleries, and I liked that she had done a variety of styles and faiths of weddings, including a lot of Indian and multicultural weddings - which applied to us. We had a fantastic engagement shoot, and Maria was happy to walk all over the city with us and carry our things, all while getting to know us, telling stories, and teaching us how to get comfortable in front of the camera and what to do to get beautiful pictures that looked and felt natural, but that we would never have gotten without her guidance. She stayed in touch over the months until the wedding, and helped us figure out scheduling, talked through timing and plans so we could get the most photos in the most relaxed way, and then was there for our event the day before, and the wedding the following day. Every moment was great, she and her team are lovely to work with, and every photograph was truly stunning. We then got an incredible photo album and a flash drive. I would hire Maria again in a heartbeat. We absolutely recommend her!

    Our experience with Maria was excellent! We were initially overwhelmed when trying to select a photographer for our interfaith wedding, but seeing Maria’s photos on her website made the decision easy. We really appreciated her style of photography - deep rich colors and focus on the couple. Other photographers seemed to have a lot of strange angles and washed out colors, which we were trying to avoid. Hiring Maria was a breeze. She is responsive by email and always happy to jump on a call when needed. Part of her package included engagement photos, which were extremely helpful when putting together our save the dates and website. She is intuitive, yet also did a good job of asking us for our preferences to confirm. The wedding day was also a breeze, and Maria documented all of our key moments without being intrusive at all. Maria’s turnaround times are excellent, and she was never late with delivering sneak peeks or the digital albums. Finally, we also worked with Maria on the final physical photo album. She was very flexible and allowed us to have multiple rounds of revisions. She was very accommodating even when we wanted to swap out many photos for more preferred variations. It was a lot of work and Maria did not hesitate to help us develop the perfect album. Overall my wife and I would highly recommend Maria for any event based on our experience working with her for our wedding. Thanks Maria!

    Hello Rakesh, Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed review! It was such an honor to be part of your interfaith wedding and to help document your special day in a way that truly reflected your vision. I'm so glad my photography style resonated with you—it means a lot that it helped make your decision easier during what can be an overwhelming process. It’s wonderful to hear that you found the engagement photos helpful for your save-the-dates and website, and that the wedding day felt seamless and stress-free. Creating a balance between capturing key moments and being unobtrusive is something I strive for with every celebration. I’m especially happy that you were pleased with the turnaround times and the process of creating your final photo album. Crafting an album that perfectly tells your story is such an important part of the experience, and I’m glad you felt supported throughout the revisions. Thank you for your kind recommendation and for trusting me with your memories. Wishing you and your wife a lifetime of love, joy, and beautiful moments together! Best wishes, Maria
