Baton Rouge Wedding Photographer
Documentary wedding photographer serving Baton Rouge, New Orleans, Lafayette, and the Surrounding Areas
Hey! That’s me!
I’m Mariko (that’s Mah-Ree-Co). Your friendly neighborhood wedding photographer and self-professed sci-fi geek. What’s my superpower? Getting couples to feel natural in front of a camera. I totally get it. It’s awkward being in front of a camera. But I happen to have perfected getting couples to feel natural so I can get those genuine moments that mean so much to you and truly captured who you are as a couple.
Our wedding day turned out so perfect from the weather to the party we had! You were an absolute breeze to work with, and you were so patient with me and our rambunctious wedding party. 🙂 I’m so glad I chose you as my photographer! You did an AMAZING job!!!

Your wedding day isn’t just about getting married.
Wait, what?!? Sure it’s about the love you share and the commitment you’re making to each other. But it’s also about sharing this milestone, a really big one, with the ones you love. It’s about:
- That moment with your mom as she helps you in your dress as you get ready.
- Knowing you made the right decision for a first look with your dad when you see his face.
- Getting ready with all your favorite people knowing how much they love and support you.
- The pure joy you feel dancing the night away with all your friends and family.
These moments are precious and I want to capture them for you. That’s why I love what I do. I get to be a part of the celebration of the love you have together as well the love of the people in your life that mean the world to you. I give couples something that they will treasure for years because of what it means to them.
Your memories are too important to let just anyone be trusted with capturing them

Mariko was amazing! Her and her husband worked hard to make sure our engagement pictures were absolutely perfect. She walked us through each of the types of poses we would be doing, gave us an overview of the spots we would be posing in, and made sure we were 100% comfortable with each and every shot. She is so personable and fun to work with!
