Hi I'm Marita Madeloni, a lifestyle portrait photographer based in the San Francisco Bay Area. I love photography for the art form itself, the perspective it gives me on my life and most of all, the way it brings amazing people into my life. I've been looking at my life through a lens since my sophomore year in high school and now I am blessed to call photography my career. Over the years I've explored many styles of photography and I've realized what really works for me and how I love to shoot! I shoot primarily with natural light and I supplement my work with some fill flash. I also work exclusively on outside locations or in my client's homes. I feel that working with people in a more natural setting brings out more of their personality and makes each session unique. My focus is on photographing babies and children and I find that there is no better way than to photograph them in a place where they feel comfortable and can have fun!
My dad has been embracing his artistic side and incorporating it with his first love, music. Here is a sneak peek of his new operation, due to launch this year! Rob even benefited by receiving one of the new prototypes to take for a true test run…. Here’s the man at work:

My good friend Tiff and her main squeeze recently tied the knot in an intimate family ceremony up in the Seattle area. They followed it up with a slammin’ party for everyone at their new home. It was pretty much a combination housewarming/wedding reception done up with Tiff’s impeccable style and taste! She even included lemon juice from her tree to make Limoncello for everyone to take home and to make the icing for her homemade cupcakes!

Manhattan in summer in record high temperatures, standing in line with the unwashed masses to see world famous tourist attractions, is there a better way to break in a NYC virgin?? Glenn’s younger bro was a first timer to NY but I was a first timer to all the tourist attractions. In two and a half days we went to the top of the Empire State Building, Ground Zero, Ellis Island, Times Square, Central Park, and The Lower East Side (Greenwich Village to guitar shop, Little Italy for dinner and Chinatown to buy Lychee nuts and mingle with the crazies). Saying all that now just feels insane! One of the highlights for me was the museum at Ellis Island, it was so cool to see all the history documented in such a beautiful way. We did have killer cheesecake at Carnegie Deli and one of the best steak dinners at Angelo & Maxie’s Steakhouse and a NY bagel with lox and shmear as well, don’t leave out the food…. We topped off our adventure by heading upstate to visit my dad and see my bro, it was a true family vacation.

This year’s Tahoe trip and mini golf was special for two reasons: my sweetie turned 30 and his two brothers were visiting from Ireland. Of course, they fell in love with Tahoe just like we did… it’s really easy to do! A few days later I rode a bike across the GG bridge with the bros and it was a breathtaking experience! The boat ride under the bridge later on just topped it all off. I was a bona fide tourist!

My good friend Tarika is counting down the days to her October wedding in Palm Springs and she had a lovely Bridal Shower! The shower was put on by her husband-to-be’s mom’s longtime friend and it was so much fun; good food and wonderful ladies! Can’t wait for the wonderful desert wedding…..

Is was an honor and a lot of fun to participate in the 2nd annual Bridges of Promise Portraits in the Park! Proceeds fund a small school in Africa and will put several children through school this year… Thank you Sandra (Fazzino that is!).

Thanks to my good friend Steve, I found the coolest location to photograph my lovely friend Brianna. She is such a fashionista and beautiful spirit! Unfortunately, I cannot disclose the location of our secret photo session……


I love when I get to see my little clients grow up! I had the pleasure of photographing little Jackson back in December when he was just 4 weeks old and look at him now! His parents aren’t too bad either…..
