Testimonials

I had the pleasure of working with Maris, based in Jacksonville, Florida, for a photoshoot in St. Augustine and Anastasia State Park, and I couldn't be happier with the experience.

From the beginning, she was well-prepared and guided me through the perfect poses, ensuring the best possible outcome.

The resulting pictures were absolutely stunning, capturing the essence of the locations and the moment beautifully. The whole experience was seamless and enjoyable, making it a memorable photoshoot. I wholeheartedly recommend her without hesitation, especially for capturing special events like senior photoshoots, or in my case grad school graduation photoshoots. You won't be disappointed with her talent and professionalism.

I used Maris for my daughter’s senior portraits, my overall experience far exceeded expectations. I have used many photographers in the past and not one came close to my experience with Maris. She truly has a passion for her work and you clearly see it in the images she is able to capture.

Not only is she amazing behind the camera but she makes the experience fun for all involved. She is the total package.....I don’t think I could use anyone else as she has raised the bar so high! Thank You, Maris, can’t wait for the next photo session❤️

Awesome experience! I took senior photos with Maris. She really pays attention to details, lighting, etc so the pictures turned out great.

Couldn't have wished for anything better, and it was super fun overall. Definitely recommend beach shoots too with her! She's great!

In addition to be an amazingly talented photographer, Maris is a consummate professional. From the resources available to help prepare for the session to the seamless and efficient way she runs the shoot to her presentation of the final products, I can't imagine there is anyone out there better.

Our pictures are stunning and we could not be more thrilled with them! Highly recommend!

Maris was so helpful during my session and made me feel so comfortable! When I saw my images I fell in love and it was almost impossible to pick out of all of my favorites!

She is one of the best photographers in Jax!

  • Senior photoshoot in Hanna Park

Maris from Maris Kirs Photography did a stunning job on my senior session. She is extremely professional and helped me feel comfortable and confident. When I showed up she purchased and gifted me a small bouquet of flowers that were the perfect prop and made the photos.

My session went wonderfully, she picked perfect poses that looked natural and not staged (a hard thing to do with photos). Maris is passionate about what she does and her work shows her expertise in photography.

I recommend her to anyone and everyone needing any type of photos done. My photos would not have turned out this lovely without Maris!
