Be sure to contact me early as I book 2-3 months in advance! My calendar fills up very fast! I only accept a small number of clients each month, allowing me the time to perfectly customize each senior session to your unique personality and style. If you have your heart set on a fall session, contact me 2-3 months before that.

YES! Every senior session with Mariela Ryan Photography includes professional makeup and hairstyling. If you don’t wear makeup, no worries, our barely-there look will be perfect for you.

I schedule shoots on available weekdays. All shoots take place in the afternoon/evening to achieve the best possible light. Plan to be with me unlit Sunset!

Don't worry! I am here to help! Every client receives a Welcome Packet and access to the exclusive Client HQ with tips and tricks on what to wear and prepare for a stress-free senior session. I also have a growing style closet with outfits, accessories, and much more for my seniors to use.

A big city vibe, an open field, on the rocks by the water . . What is your vision for your senior portraits? During our phone consultation, we will talk about the different options and decide together on the best location to best fit YOUR personality and style. We can often find a large variety of backgrounds in one location, or we can go to multiple locations that are close together.

I always recommend bringing 5 to 6 outfits to choose from. In addition, you have access to my style closet and can pull pieces to complete your looks.

I offer keepsake image boxes complete with matted prints. I also offer wall portraits ready to be framed, as well as specialty products like metal prints, fine art albums, and accordion books.

I got you covered! The portrait experience with MRP is all-inclusive and you get digital files in every print collection.

I offer more than just natural light portraits on location. We can add more variety to your senior photos with studio images. You have the choice of having your portrait session in the studio, on location, or a combination of both. Just imagine the possibilities!

My style of editing is clean and modern. I enhance your photos as needed, with color correction, skin smoothing, and blemish removal. If you have something specific you want to be edited, just let me know! The end result is timeless photos that you will love for a lifetime.

Don't worry, I’ll keep an eye on the weather forecast and stay in contact with you prior to your photo session. We may need to reschedule but we will get your shoot done! I love sun-filled images just as much as you do and want your session to be perfect!
