Women are so powerful when they believe in themselves. I see their ambition, their love, and their growth. Through intentional and authentic photography, I document the stories of women building lives their proud of. From building a business to building your family - in all your different seasons, i've got you covered.

Branding & Portrait Photographer

Hi, I'm Marianna

Marianna is outstanding, talented, patient and captures the most authentic family moments - even with an extremely active toddler! I knew we were in the right hands as soon as she said, "lets just let him play" during the shoot. I can't express how beautiful our photos turned out! We will definitely be a repeat customer and look forward to working with her again. I highly recommend her!

Marianna Johnson has captured me as a mom, with my family, in a meadow, in my living room, in the studio, in my office and even at the library! She knows how to immediately make you feel comfortable in your own skin and guides you throughout the shoot the entire time. She makes it easy and captures the most beautiful sides of you, sides you didn’t even know you had. I highly recommend Marianna, you won’t be disappointed.

Oh my gosh working with Marianna was absolutely incredible. I showed her some examples of what I was looking for, for my branding photos for my business and she DELIVERED that + MORE! I recommend her for any of your branding photography needs. PLUS she was very flexible to schedule! I can’t wait to share my photos on my social media platforms!! AMAZING!!

I worked with Marianna on a professional branding shoot for my beauty studio, and it was a great experience! She got to know me, my brand, and my vision for the shoot. She made me feel comfortable and confident, and she helped me create unique photos that captured my personality and the space I've created!

"Wanted to leave a review for a fantastic photographer. She was high positive energy and had many ideas for my son’s senior pictures. She made our son feel comfortable during the process. It should also be noted that during the shoot she took suggestions for shots on the fly which made for some of or favorites. Exceptional experience which is great because I have more kids that need pictures 😁"

"We had Marianna come take pictures of our newborn today and she was nothing short of amazing! Very professional, very kind and was so wonderful with both of my daughters. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a sweet photographer!"
-Breanna S

Marianna was amazing! She communicated promptly and answered any and all questions I had. She was super flexible and accommodating. The day of our photo session, she made everything fun and easy. She captured amazing pictures that are making it very hard for us to pick just a few. I would definitely recommend hiring Marianna as your photographer. I know I will again in the future!
