Hi, I'm Maria
"I Had Solid Friendships, But Never Had a Group of People Who Were Excited and Passionate About Similar Things..."
That's why I started the Female Photographer Society.
Have you ever felt like you want to go on adventures to new places and take new and exciting photos, but you wished you had someone to go with? Someone who shared the same passion for photography, and for life as you?
I grew up in a family that went on a new adventure every weekend. But as I grew up and my list of responsibilities started growing, I started to feel so alone, and lost the motivation to do the things I loved.
One day I woke up and realised, I had to break the cycle of the every day, and go out there and live my life.
Being surrounded by nature as a child is what inspired me to pick up a camera. After playing around with Mum’s film camera for a couple years I finally got my own bright red Kodak camera for Christmas when I was 8 years old.
That was just the start of my photography obsession. After studying photography in school, then spending 2 years completing a Diploma in Contemporary Photography, I signed up to join the Air Force as an Air Force Photographer.
In my 12 years as an Air Force Photographer, I got to use my creative eye to produce stunning photos of unique and exciting subjects, always looking out for an opportunity to go on another adventure and take photos of a new place and people.
