If you're thinking about doing something for yourself or for your significant other, yes I'm talking about a boudoir shoot, Mayra is without a doubt your go-to photographer. Being vulnerable and exposed in front of a camera can be intimidating and discouraging, especially when that nagging voice that we all have in the back of our heads doesn't shut up. Mayra's energy and passion instantly washes ALL of that away. She gets into the shots herself and shows you different poses and ways to play with your angles. I loved this because it made me more comfortable to move in front of the camera, and showed me what the shots should try to look like, Mayra will not make you get in front of her and expect you to perform like a circus pony. She coaches and encourages you and makes the entire shoot feel like you're hanging out with your best gal pal, she makes it all feel so natural. She comes to the shoot with ideas beyond what you might have had in your head which is so helpful. She also takes the time to show you what your photos are looking like during the shoot so that you not only are hyped on what she's capturing, but you're excited to do some more! The photos she took for me were out of this world and I didn't even recognize myself nor did my husband, and I mean that in a good way! Mayra is someone who will do anything to make someone feel good about themselves on the inside as well as on the outside, and her photos capture that beautifully. Mayra's booking process is easy, her price packets are beyond reasonable, and she is always accessible to reach for questions or concerns. I never had a long period of time in between waiting for a response to any question I had, Mayra was in contact with me in less than an hour after I'd asked. I would 1,000% recommend and book with Mayra Photography again. I would not only book for another boudoir shoot, but I would book any type of photoshoot with her in the future, as she captures almost any type of moment you could ever want. She's an absolute dream to work with and to anyone looking for a photographer who's down to Earth, Mayra is your girl. Mayra is someone who's clearly worked hard to become the successful girl boss that she is. Not only is that inspiring all in itself, but it deeply shows an example that when you love what you do for a living, you create a magic that is shared forever with everyone you cross paths with and in this case its in the moments that Mayra captures. This girl is on fire! read more

Mayra was my wedding photographer and the entire experience with her from start to finish was smooth, stress free, and very enjoyable. I didn't have a specific vision for the types of photos I wanted so it was important to have a photographer with experience that could provide suggestions, examples, and guidance - and Mayra was perfect. She suggested a beautiful park in the area for our bridal party photos and directed everyone (my husband and I, bridal party, family) for lots of cute poses. We have family that primarily speaks Spanish so it was also important for us to find someone that could communicate with the grandmas and aunties and Mayra was perfect for that as well. Mayra provided a complimentary engagement session for us to get to know each other's styles which really helped ease any awkwardness we would feel on the wedding day (we are not used to being the center of attention haha!) and even provided me with a sneak peak of the wedding photos a couple of days afterwards without me having to ask! She did a great job of adjusting to our style and making us feel comfortable during the weeding. I would 100% recommend Mayra for anyone looking for a wedding photographer. She was my favorite wedding vendor that I worked with :) read more

Planning a wedding is stressful enough but during this pandemic, No words. I first met with Mayra prior to any closures. She was so welcoming and made everything so easy. She even had a book for recommendation for other vendor-Which I loved- She broke it all down for me and help me get the wedding planning started. Than the Closure happened and she met with me again-Virtually- and we discussed the new look for my now COVID wedding. The day came, Mayra arrived on time, dressed professionally and ready to work. She helped make sure we were on time for everything. She continuously checked in with me to make sure I was mentally okay. She sent me a few preview pictures the next day and let me tell you, I LOVED THEM! I told her about my insecurities and boy she helped pose me the right way and was just so on it, yet with the flow as well. Nothing but great things to say about Mayra. We hired her to do our Family photos for the rest of our lives :) DID I MENTION SHE WAS PREGNANT DURING ALL OF THIS AND NEVER MISSED A BEAT!!! You won't be disappointed!! read more

Not only is Mayra an amazing photographer, but she has this fantastic way of connecting to her clients. Being photographed can be quite awkward and nerve wracking at times, especially for someone who isn't used to it. Mayra makes people feel comfortable, un-intimidated, and most importantly have fun! Her style of editing is sharp, bright and very consistent. Being a part of LPA ( latina professional alliance) and WEV (Women economic ventures) are just a couple of the things that prove that she is not only a great business woman, but involved in her community. Santa Barbra is very community driven, and despite only having started her full time photography business a year ago she is has proven to find this community to be important to her. Most importantly everyone who meets Mayra can tell that she has an unremarkable passion and love for photography, and finds a deep connection in making people's memories last forever. read more

I have worked with Mayra twice already and each time has been a great experience. The first time was when she was shooting my wedding day. She was there with us all day, from getting ready for the wedding, the ceremony and the reception. The photos were high quality and she was able to give us multiple ways to access the photos. She captured the beauty and magic of our special day. Just this last weekend, Mayra did the photo shoot for my campaign for local office. This was my and Mayra's first political photo shoot, but she was a total pro the whole time. She made the experience very comfortable and did a great job setting up shots for us. I cannot wait to see the results. Mayra is a great photographer who knows how to work with individuals, small and large groups for various occasions. I recommend her to anyone who needs a photographer. read more

We had the pleasure of having Mayra as our wedding photographer and are so grateful that we chose her! We absolutely love the photos! The communication was great and we love her creative eye! On "The Day", she was on time, and went above and beyond. Our event was running late due to last minute things and Mayra stepped in and offered to help with no hesitation, even though it wasn't her job. That, to me, says a lot about a persons initiative, thoughtfulness, and work ethic. During the ceremony, we couldn't even tell she was there which made for great photographs. We felt very comfortable and the post ceremony photo session was filled with creativity, great interaction and clear direction. We definitely recommend her and look forward to working with her in the future! read more

A week and a half ago my little family grew by having our first daughter, little Luna. Mayra did our pregnancy announcement pictures that included our 4 year old son, and may I say they came out amazing. This time around not only was it with our toddler, but with our new addition. I wanted her to capture the sweet moments of my son (a proud big brother) and his little sister together. It isn't easy having one run around and having an unpredictable baby, but Mayra has the patience and an eye of when and how to capture a truly beautiful picture. She didn't just take our pictures, she captured our love. read more

I'll start by saying Mayra is absolutely amazing! She is extremely professional, yet so easy going and relatable. I've had the pleasure of shooting with her on many occasions such as; Family photos, Fiesta, Boudoir, Maternity, etc.. Every single time, she met us with so much warmth! I cannot stress how important it is to feel comfortable while you are having pictures taken, it makes a world of difference as to how the pictures come out. Every time I see the gallery of photos she has taken, Im speechless. I recommend Mayra to everyone & anyone who is looking for a photographer for any event! read more

I have to admit I am having a hard time choosing which picture(s) to sent to my family/friends, from my daughter's senior photo shoot with Mayra, because they are all AMAZING!!! My daughter felt very comfortable with Mayra and both had some good laughs during the photo shoot. It was a good friend that referred Mayra to me, but I had also seen her work displayed during SB Fiestas, the photos were beautiful. All I can say is that Mayra takes pride in her work and it shows. Thank you Mayra!!!!! read more

If you're looking for a fun and relaxed photo session, Mayra is your go to photographer! My fiancé and I wanted fall scenery for our engagement photos and living in SB is very limited and difficult to find trees with the beautiful orange, yellow, red colors. We eventually found a park with a few trees and mostly all greenery landscapes, but Mayra was able to capture what we wanted and made it work! We are happy with the results. She made us laugh and enjoy every moment of the photo session. read more

We were lucky to have found Mayra to be our photographer for our wedding in July! She is very energetic, full of ideas and really cares about making the perfect memories for your special day.

She got to our venue earlier than schedule and started working right away, she was very helpful and fun to work with! Thank you Mayra!! To top it off...she has great prices!! read more

As one of the most important graduations of my life was coming (Graduate School/Teaching Credential), Mayra was flexible with not only her time, but my many ideas for pictures. She was very professional, giving me ideas of where to take pictures, but also allowing me to be creative. It was because of this, that I felt valued while we were capturing my special moments! Highly recommend! Sincerely, 1st year 4th Grade teacher read more

Mayra was great for my surprise engagement\proposal. She even helped me get everything planned and played a major role in keeping it a secret. I highly suggest her in any capacity for photos. We had our dog there as well and the pictures are stunning. She was quick in getting us some shots so we could share the news with friends and family and more are coming! It was a great experience and glad I went with her. read more

As a videographer, being able to work with photographers is key to providing the best quality work for my clients.
