"Markina made us feel completely at ease"
Markina is absolutely amazing in every way! My (now) husband and I met with Markina to discuss engagement and wedding photography, which is something that we were extremely anxious about because we wanted the best! After our initial conversation with Markina, we immediately knew she was the one!
Markina helped us with our timeline, setting up our photo lists, and she took the most amazing pictures!! My husband and I are normally not very comfortable in front of a camera, but Markina made us feel completely at ease. She guided us through each pose and kept everything moving smoothly.
We are so pleased each time we work with her. Markina’s positive nature and flexibility in her work make her the best photographer to work with. I recommend Markina B. Photography to everyone!

If you are ready to conquer your wedding photos with the help of a bubbly, outgoing & passionate photographer, and maybe even become life long friends? Then, fill out that contact form and let's get this journey going!
As your wedding photographer, I strive for a seamless and memorable experience from start to finish. I want you to feel like you are my only couple and that I care, because I do! I will help relieve as much stress off of you as I can, because this isn't my first rodeo :)
I believe your wedding photos should reflect the actual colors of your day and not be muted or altered because in 50 years you will want to remember that the bridesmaid dresses were terracotta, not brown. You will want to remember what color dress your mom wore and what the flowers actually looked like.
We will capture elegant, timeless and classic photos for you to cherish for a lifetime and you will feel anything but awkward in front of my camera - I promise!

Oh Hey! I'm Markina
I am not just a photographer, I am a memory keeper, an artist who understands the magic of a moment frozen in time. Growing up as a 90s kid, I experienced life before the age of instant selfies and social media filters. Back then, the only way to preserve memories was through film cameras, and I became obsessed with the beauty of capturing those fleeting moments.
While other kids were glued to their game consoles, I was out with my camera, snapping shots of friends, family, and the world around me. I couldn’t get enough of it. Every roll of film was a treasure chest, and every picture was a snapshot of a world I wanted to keep close.
What made me different though, wasn’t just my love of photography. It was the joy I felt in sharing those photos with my friends. There was something magical about seeing their faces light up when they saw themselves captured in a moment of time. That excitement—waiting for the film to develop, the anticipation of unveiling those memories—was like nothing else.
Now, as a photographer, I bring that same passion and personal connection to my work. Whether it’s capturing a wedding, a family moment, or a professional portrait, I bring that same dedication to preserving memories. For me, it’s not just about taking pictures—it’s about creating something lasting, something tangible. I want my clients to receive a piece of their history, their own timeless moments, captured by someone who truly understands what it means to preserve those memories.
So when people book with MBP, you're not just hiring a photographer—you're choosing someone who has loved photography for as long as they can remember. Someone who knows the joy of showing photos to friends, who understands the weight of a single image, and who will make sure that the most important moments in their lives are captured with love, authenticity, and artistry.
