A session with me is not just a photography appointment — it is a documented record of one of the most significant chapters of your life.
The portraits you take home will hang on your walls, sit on your shelves, and be passed down for decades.
Here is everything you need to know about how my pricing works and what to expect.
Your Investment
Because you have found the one you love
Once you have chosen your favorites I will guide you through selecting the products you want to take home. Your finished order is delivered within 1 to 3 weeks.
Step 03 — Order Your Products
Within 2 to 7 days after your session I will send you a link to your proofs. You can review them on your own or we can go through them together online or in person.
Step 02 — Review Your Proofs
Arrive at my Sandy Springs studio at your scheduled time. I will have everything ready so we can get started right away.

"We had a great time working with Mariela! She's one of the best photographers in town! We absolutely loved the pictures and the newborn album!! "Sajia
My most popular product — and the one I recommend most often — is a handcrafted Italian album. These are not consumer photo books. They are professionally bound, archival quality albums built to last for decades.
I offer two options. The Heirloom Album includes 20 pages and up to 25 images. The Premium Album includes 30 pages and up to 35 images. Both are handcrafted in Italy and designed to sit on a shelf, be passed around at family gatherings, and eventually end up in your child's hands.
If you are on the fence about an album, I encourage you to see one in person at your ordering appointment. Most clients who were undecided walk out with one.
Fine art albums, handcrafted memories
Heirloom Albums
My editing is clean, simple, and true to life. I do not apply heavy filters or dramatic effects — my goal is to deliver images that look like the best version of the moment, not an edited version of it.
For newborn sessions I remove temporary skin conditions and distractions that are not permanent — so what you see in the final image is your baby exactly as they were, without anything that would not be there a week later.
For maternity sessions I edit with care and intention. Every woman carries pregnancy differently — and my goal is to make sure you look and feel your best in every image. I take the time to make subtle adjustments so your portraits are flattering, natural, and something you are proud to display.
