YOU'VE GOT A GREAT CREW.

LET'S CELEBRATE!
and break some rules with my
storytelling outdoor family photo-sessions in Geneva

TIME FLIES. KIDS GROW UP.
WE GET OLDER.

So what are you going to do about that?

Just keep on working, get busy, do laundry... NO WAY!


These simple little moments of you kids’ childhood
and YOU in them should not stay unseen.
Being a parent is hard enough.
Let’s keep it simple and just go for a walk.
Running, laughing, jumping, swirling - and of course the messy hair, sticky fingers, smoochy kisses… all the things you’ll be missing so much, so soon.

And of course I will capture YOU in the middle of all this precious mess, because this is how you will be remembered and this is what really matters.

OUTDOOR FAMILY SESSIONS
IN GENEVA

starting from 550 €
My signature and bestseller photo session!

I had over 500 of those in the last 10 years and every single one is unique!

We’ll walk together for about 60–90 minutes and create emotional, natural, and spontaneous photos you’ll LOVE.

What’s included:

  • A relaxed 60–90 minute outdoor session in Geneva (in a lovely location suggested by me)
  • A private gallery with 50+ photographs, delivered in 3–4 weeks
  • Three collections to choose from after your session
  • A gift print credit in every collection, to use towards prints, frames, or albums

HOW IT WORKS

01. WE CHAT
We’ll start with a casual, friendly chat - usually by email - just to make sure I’m your cup of tea (and that you can live with my English 😉).

I want to know EVERYTHING! How you boo the gloomy days, your kid’s favourite Pokémon, what music lights you up…

If I’m going to be your family photographer, we should really get to know each other — and LIKE each other! For real.
02. YOU BOOK
After our chat, you can decide and book your session!

No need to sell your kidney (yet!) - a booking fee of 250 € and a signed contract is all I need to reserve your date and start planning your session.
03. WE GET READY
I’ll send you a fun and easy guide to help you prepare:
  • Some stylish wisdom on choosing outfits (and how to let your teen dress like Marilyn Manson if that’s their vibe).
  • The same tips work for toddlers too - though let’s be honest, they’ll probably want to look like Elsa.

  • Plus, a few ideas for simple activities your family loves right now.
04. WE SHOOT
On the day of your session, we simply have fun. You and your kids can just be who you really are - and don’t worry, it’s my job to bring your beautiful real selves to shine.

We’ll create stunning, meaningful photographs that tell YOUR family story — not some random Pinterest list of “family photos to take this fall.”

You'll probably forget that I am taking photos and your kids won’t want me to leave.
05.  GALLERY IS READY
Three to four weeks after our session, I’ll send you an emotional slideshow with all your beautiful photos set to music.

You’ll probably cry a little (or a lot!) - and then you’ll choose the collection that feels right for you.

Collections start at 300 €, and each includes a print credit for stunning products.

You’ll take home a selection of your favourite images and printed pieces that will quickly become your most treasured things.
06. WE STAY IN TOUCH
Once you’ve had your session, you’re part of my photo family.

You’ll get access to special client-only offers - and of course… we’ll do it again!

YOUR INVESTMENT

  • There is a 250 € session fee to reserve your date and time. It’s non-refundable, but you can always reschedule without any additional fees if needed.
  • Collections start at 300 € and include 10 beautifully edited high-resolution digital files, plus a 50 € gift credit to order a few lovely fine art prints.
  • Your overall investment starts at 550 € (session fee + starter collection).
  • Most families invest between 850 € and 1,500 €, depending on the collection and printed products they choose.

What my clients say


"I had quite high expectations for this session but when Maryia sent over the pictures, it left me and my husband speechless (and teary). She has managed to capture our family exactly how I’d imagined, but wouldn’t dare to hope for and I would proudly present every single image for the whole world to see if it came to that!"

- Keiu

"My biggest fear was that Nina my 4 year old daughter will be shy around Maryia and as a result will either not be in any pictures or with a very grumpy face. I didn't need to worry at all. Maryia is fantastic with kids so Nina loved her straight away. We all did!"

- Iva

"Maryia has a unique talent to see the personality of her subjects after a few minutes in their company and so captured our family to perfection.

- Zoe

Hi! I am Maryia!

I am a family photographer, documenting my family life and telling my client's stories.

I love to photograph naughty kids and parents who let it go.

I photograph the wild and the calm of your parenthood:


  • A Hug. A Touch. A Kiss.
  • And the FULL ON TORNADO: messy faces, couch jumps, splashes in the bath or paddles and brushing those tiny teeth...

I have three boys and nothing scares me! :D

I don't think that family photos should be about posing at the sunset in a perfectly matching outfits, when kids are bribed, but unhappy and parents are stressed.

I have a feeling that family photography went the wrong direction and I would like to bring it on track of the meaningful, emotional and sentimental storytelling.

It isn't about looks, poses, outfits etc.

It's about the most important time in your life - the time spent with people you love.

You do not have to do anything extraordinary for your family photo session - just have some fun with people you love most.

WE PRINT

If you enjoy looking at your family photos on a tiny screen of your phone - we cannot be friends.

Me and my clients - we print!

You should see your most favourite photos EVERY DAY - on your walls, in an album or at last - just in a box.

Printed photos are accessible for everyone, not only for you -  and are much harder to loose, than files.

I am a printing nerd

...and I believe photographs should live beyond the screen. That’s why every collection comes with a print credit, so you can turn your favourite images into fine art prints, frames, or albums.
"We keep watching and rewatching the album. We love it so much!!!"
