More about Maia S....
What do you love about your job?
I love being able to connect with people all over the globe. Nothing beats the look on someone's face when you show them what you've captured. Even when you don't speak the same language, the energy you exchange is priceless. As a woman in the industry I pride myself on being respectful of people's space and time. I've heard horror stories from models, and I love that I always create a safe space for my clients.
What types of shoots have you done and how did you make them special?
I've done creative shoots with models, photos at dance auditions, dance performances, family photos, birthday parties, headshots, and everything in-between. I always do my best at capturing the energy in the room, making sure to get the colors right since they determine the mood. I always ask questions and make suggestions on how to make people look their best.
Awards, honors, and recognitions received
I've never gotten any awards for my work, but I was asked to be in a collaborative gallery show a few years back and have hosted two of my own.
