Madeloni Photography bio picture

Welcome to Madeloni Photography!

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!

San Francisco Baby Photographer | Little Ones in Golden Gate Park!

San Francisco Family Portraiture | The Dublin Family in The Redwoods!

It was awesome to finally meet The Dublins after hearing so much good stuff about them from my friends Tarika & Barrett.  Erica & Jim recently welcomed their son into the world, what a cute little baby chunk!  He was soooo not in a posing mood; but with a little cajoling, tickling and kissing he managed to get the job done!sanfranciscofamilyportraiture_01sanfranciscofamilyportraiture_02sanfranciscofamilyportraiture_03sanfranciscofamilyportraiture_04sanfranciscofamilyportraiture_05sanfranciscofamilyportraiture_06sanfranciscofamilyportraiture_07sanfranciscofamilyportraiture_08sanfranciscofamilyportraiture_09

Bay Area Engagement Photography | tarika & barrett – a romantic portrait.

My wonderful, beautiful and talented long time friend Tarika is engaged to the wonderful, handsome and funny Barrett.  Their Palm Springs wedding isn’t scheduled until next October, so they can have a nice, relaxed engagement.  I am personally looking forward to a nice, relaxing weekend in Palm Springs!  These two are some of the most genuine and warm hearted people that I am blessed to have in my life and I am so incredibly happy for them.  I was truly privileged to photograph such a beautiful pair!tarika&barrett_01tarika&barrett_02tarika&barrett_03tarika&barrett_04tarika&barrett_05tarika&barrett_06tarika&barrett_07tarika&barrett_08tarika&barrett_09tarika&barrett_10tarika&barrett_11tarika&barrett_12tarika&barrett_13tarika&barrett_14tarika&barrett_15tarika&barrett_16tarika&barrett_17
