Mayumi Acosta Photography

Making everyday people feel and look beautiful and confident in portraits has been my passion for the past six years. I not only LOVE what I do, I am obsessed about the transformative experience I provide through a photo shoot. I strongly believe there is beauty in every person and to me, a portrait is a way of exploration, discovering and celebration of your inner strength and power. I have photographed thousands of people of all ages and backgrounds and I love doing it. Capturing beauty in people and helping them realize their own allure is my expertise and enlightens my soul. I call my work “portraits from the heart” because I believe that portraiture can reach a level where we are no longer seeing the image but actually feeling it. This essentially is the result of the strong connection I create with my clients. I love making them feel comfortable in their own skin. Seeing their confidence flourish in front of my lens, photographing them being themselves completely and unapologetically, and seeing their faces light up when they see their portraits for the first time is priceless. I enjoy giving a celebrity experience to everyday people, an experience that is transformative and life-changing.
