Hello and welcome to my photography blog! I’m Maria Yemets, a professional photographer based in Barcelona, originally from Ukraine. If you have a moment, grab a cup of tea, and let me share my journey into the world of portrait photography with you.
From Ph.D. in Economics to Passionate Photographer
My career began in a completely different field. I hold a Ph.D. in Economics and Tourism, and for almost 10 years, I worked as a professor at universities in Ukraine and Spain. My teaching experience, especially in English, allowed me to connect with students from various cultural backgrounds. Along the way, I also became proficient in Spanish, which has been invaluable in my professional life here in Spain.
In 2014, my career took an unexpected turn when I became the Head of the Department of IER and Marketing at a large international company. It was in this role that my passion for photography began to blossom. As I developed the company’s brand and website, I was introduced to the world of brand photography. This experience sparked my interest in visual storytelling, and I soon found myself deeply immersed in portrait photography.

Specializing in Portrait Photography
Today, I am a professional portrait photographer with nearly a decade of experience, specializing in family photography, engagement photo shoots, pregnancy photography, and elopement photography. Based in Barcelona, I work with clients from around the world, capturing their most cherished moments in this beautiful city.
As a photographer, my approach goes beyond just taking and editing photos. I believe that each photo session is an opportunity to tell a unique story. That’s why I offer a personalized pre-session consultation, where we discuss your vision, preferred locations in Barcelona, and outfit choices. My goal is to make you feel comfortable and confident, ensuring that the final images truly reflect your personality and the emotions of the moment.

Whether it’s a romantic engagement session, a joyful family portrait, or a serene pregnancy photo shoot, I strive to create images that are warm, romantic, and soulful.
