Beyond the Shutter

Hi, I'm Marika!

I’m a photographer based in Killarney, Ireland. Photography has been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and by the age of 13 I was already doing my first paid photoshoots.
 
For me, photography has always been about REAL moments, emotions and the people behind them. I love meeting new people, hearing their stories and creating an atmosphere where they can relax, have fun and simply be themselves.
 
I’m definitely someone who gets emotionally involved too. I’ll laugh with you, probably tear up with you, and get genuinely excited when we create something special together.
 
I’m based in Killarney, but I’m always happy to travel, whether that’s somewhere else in Ireland or the other side of the world. 
 
More than anything, I want to create photographs that bring you back to how a moment actually felt.
 
Not just beautiful photos, but photos that feel like you.
