I’m Maria Abou Nassar and I currently reside in Los Angeles, California. I grew up in San Diego, California before returning to my other home, Lebanon. I was fortunate enough to live in these two countries with such different and uniquely gorgeous landscapes, people and vibrant light. It is from these growing years that I developed my strong base of appreciation and ability to work with natural light and beauty in all its forms.
My professional background is in business, filmmaking and production of film and events - all of which led me to my current passion & path of fashion photography. Film work credits include co-executive producer on the 2017 Showtime network special titled NEMR No Bombing in Beirut
I’ve learned that the lasting essence of life is moments that move you. Emotions that are raw and powerful. This is what I strive to capture in my work. I’m always looking to create more art, cultivate more beauty and capture those everlasting moments.
