Hi there!
I’m Mariya, a Cleveland based wedding and engagement photographer capturing love stories in warm, vibrant, true-to-life color. For over 7 years, I’ve been helping people capture life’s most special moments.
I’m passionate about telling stories that reflect the unique beauty of everyone I work with. My goal is to create a welcoming and comfortable experience for everyone, celebrating love and connection in all its forms. My photography style is candid, documentary-style moments with guided portraits so you can feel comfortable, confident, and truly yourself in front of the camera. I love joking around and making my clients laugh because the best photos happen when you’re having fun!
I’m local to Cleveland but always up for an adventure. Let’s create something beautiful together!
Other Services
Beyond weddings and engagements, I also photograph families, branding sessions, headshots, and special events throughout Cleveland and beyond. Whether it’s capturing family milestones, showcasing your personal brand, or creating professional portraits, my approach is the same: stress-free, natural, and fun. You will get vibrant, timeless images that reflect your personality and the authentic moments that make your story unique.
Photography with me is about more than pictures. It’s about creating a space where you can be yourself. If you’re looking for a Cleveland photographer who focuses on real emotions, natural posing, and timeless, colorful photos, let’s connect and create something beautiful together!

Sort of. I require 25% of the package price to book your wedding date. The rest of the amount is due the week of your wedding. When you book me, you will receive a link to your invoice. The invoice will reflect the whole amount of your package. You can use that link and pay any additional amount towards your balance at any time leading up to your wedding.
I love traveling for sessions and weddings! There are no travel fees for weddings within 2 hours of my location (Cleveland). Anything beyond that, the travel fee is calculated based on distance. For non-wedding sessions, there are no travel fees for locations within an hour of my location (Cleveland).
Please fill out the contact form with all details. I will get back to you within 24 hours. A phone consultation is recommended for weddings but not necessary to book. Once you choose your package, I will email you the contract to sign digitally and send you an invoice. Once the contract is signed and retainer is paid, your session is booked!
Reviews
Mariya is incredible. Her and her husband are a great duo with bts video and amazing photography. I felt so welcomed and comfortable when directed for poses with my fiance. It’s hard finding LGBTQ+ inclusive photographers and she delivered. Mariya is multitalented and can’t wait to use her for future shoots!

I highly recommend Mariya Bee Photo!!!!! Mariya was our wedding photographer, and she is absolutely amazing to work with!! Her photography style beautifully captures the special moments!! Our wedding was not the most traditional in format, but Mariya listened without judgment and ensured all the details we wanted were captured. From her fun, warm personality to her professionalism, flexibility, and great communication, she is truly a gem!!!!

Mariya was absolutely wonderful to work with! She captured so many candid, behind-the-scenes moments that we otherwise would have missed, and it was so special to see the day from another perspective. On top of that, she created the most amazing TikToks that we’ll treasure forever!. She was professional, creative, and made us feel comfortable the entire time. We are so excited to have these memories to look back on, and we highly recommend Mariya Bee Photo to any couple looking for an incredible content creator!
