Adventurous

for the

When I started this business back in 2009, I was also a full time law enforcement officer! A lot has changed since then, but not my passion for love, weddings, and art! These days photography is my full-time job--well, except for being mom-extraordinaire to our four children, including our special-needs daughter, Ireland, and a houseful of dogs, a cat, chickens, and koi fish!

I am a passionate wedding and portrait photographer based out of the Las Vegas, Nevada, area, but available for travel both nationwide AND worldwide! If there's one thing I definitely love more than photography, it's travel! Combining the two is well, a match made in heaven!

"Maria is absolutely phenomenal!"

"We chose to do post wedding, Mr. & Mrs. photos, instead of the traditional engagement photos. After reading all the great reviews about Vimana Photography I reached out to explain what we were looking for: out of state photos taken at Valley of Fire by way of helicopter. Maria immediately agreed and worked with me via email three months leading up to the shoot. The professionalism, attention to detail, and overall incredible talent exceeded our expectations. We’re blown away by our photos and will enjoy them for years to come." — Sher & Danny
