Hi. I’m Maria. I studied photography at Falmouth University. Now I take photos for a living and I also take photos of the world around me for fun.

What’s the deal with the atlas? For my fifth birthday, my mum bought me one as tall as me. I pored over maps and statistics and dreamed of seeing the reality with my own eyes. I didn’t think I ever would, but here we are. Now I’m sharing my photos and travel tips so others like five year-old me can decide what they want to see and how to make it happen.
