We love you, Maija!

There aren’t enough words in my vocabulary to describe what an amazing time it was having Maija photograph our wedding. She is excited, happy, fun loving, and heartfelt. And serious when she needs to be. Her style of get the candid, do a pose, and get a candid again, is amazing. Every picture felt completely natural. We also did our engagement session with her and if you are unsure if you should do an engagement session, I say, 100% yes! Even if it is only to bond with your photographer, it is totally worth it. During our wedding Maija felt completely like family and I was so excited to see her when I arrived at the venue. It was all amazing having a second photographer. There was always a photographer when you wanted/needed one and they were both so so helpful. I can’t rave enough about her, but just know, she is worth every penny and so, SO much more.

Perfection!

Working with Maija was nothing short of perfection! She captured the day beautifully and was an absolute joy to work with. Her assistant (Gloria, I believe) was wonderful as well! Before the ceremony my veil started falling apart, she jumped into action and sewed it back together, without skipping a beat! They made it so easy and I could not be happier with my experience. You will not be disappointed!

Incredibly talent, would highly recommend!

10/10, would highly recommend!

Maija holds a special place in our hearts. My husband and I eloped in 2020, and she graciously photographed our elopement at that time. Then, when things settled down and we had time to plan a wedding with all of our people, we of course asked Maija to join us again to photograph our wedding celebration! So when I say I would work with her again, I really do mean it! Maija is very talented photographer. She manages to capture every detail to make it stand out perfectly, whether that's with decor, table settings, clothing, etc, or in people, bringing out the best features in everyone. Every photo that I have from our elopment AND wedding celebration is so stunning. She is extremely professional and a very good communicator...plus, she's super fun! We love Maija! Do yourself a favor and work with her, I promise you won't regret it!

I have worked with Maija of Maija Karin Photography in both a personal and professional capacity, and have been consistently amazed by her talent and professionalism throughout every event. I initially met Maija upon hiring her for our own wedding, and couldn't have been more pleased! Our photography was a priority to us, and in addition to having beautiful images, we wanted a photographer whose personality would enhance our day. Maija gave us all of that and more; she was warm, funny, organized, direct when needed, and put us completely at ease. Our photos are the most wonderful mix of stunning portraits and evocative candids that were beautifully and tastefully edited; we truly treasure them. Since our own wedding, Maija has shot promotional photo shoots for me (I'm a floral/event designer), and has done equally amazing work for family members' weddings upon our recommendation. A truly talented photographer with an infectious spirit and unbeatable work ethic!
