Are you still photographing weddings?

I decided to take a little break from weddings to have more availability for time with my family. I do still LOVE photographing weddings and have a feeling I’ll go back to them, but for now I just wrapped up my last wedding in fall of 2022.

Did you used to be Diana Maire Photography?

I did! From 2008-2018 I used my maiden name for my photography business. I found people were constantly misspelling it, and I wasn’t getting emails and missing out on work because people thought my business name was Diana Marie Photography! I finally decided to change it, after all I’d been married and had a different name for 9 years anyways!

Where are you located?

In 2020 I moved from the Bay Area to Redding, CA.

Do you Travel for photoshoots?

I still often travel to the Bay Area for photo sessions and schedule mini sessions at 1-2 times during the fall there, so am 100% open to that! Other locations depend on timing and location, send me an email and lets chat details!

What’s the turn around time for photos?

For portrait sessions I send an online gallery within 2 weeks.

What’s your style of photography?

I love light, colorful, playful photos that depict real moments and genuine smiles! I often shoot backlit and love a little sun flare peeking through some trees. I prefer soft, natural light, and rarely do anything dramatic or edgy.

Do you only shoot natural light?

In a perfect location I do, however I sometimes need to add a little light to get things just right. I always bring some flashes and reflectors along just in case and play it by ear depending on lighting and location.
