Hi! 

Made in Brazil and established in the US. I  have lived in this beautiful country for most of my adult life. I've been married to my better half and  blessed with two great kids. I am lucky to do what I love - the marriage of my two passions: photography & horses.  Life is good! 

Horses and photography have always been a part of me. With a degree in Photojournalism, most of my college time was spent outside capturing candid life moments and all the interesting events happening around me.

My dad was a horseman and taught me how to ride from a very young age. But it wasn't until I moved to the US that I bought my first horse; a sweet Arabian gelding who became my best buddy. Riding beautiful trails was part of our daily routine.

Now, as a photographer, I get to enjoy these majestic creatures by capturing special moments between them and their human partners, in or outside the ring, creating beautiful equine fine art portraits and photographing our beloved American Wild Horses.

I am looking forward to getting to know you and your horse.

Maria
