About Mirelle Maia

Hi, I’m Mirelle — the photographer behind Mirelle Maia Photography. I’m based in Los Angeles and love capturing people just as they are — full of love, emotion, laughter, and connection.

Whether it’s a quiet newborn snuggle, a glowing maternity session, or a playful family shoot on the beach, I’m here to tell your story in a way that feels honest and beautiful.

Why I Do This

I believe the best photos come from real moments — not stiff poses or fake smiles. I want your session to feel like time well spent with the people you love. My goal is to make you feel relaxed, connected, and seen.

Most of my clients say our shoots feel more like a fun hangout or a little family adventure — and that means everything to me.
