Friendly reminder from your neighborhood creative bat lady 🦇📸✨

Whether it’s a paid booking or a creative collaboration, alignment matters just as much as talent. Price matters, sí… pero so does energy, communication, vision, boundaries, respect, and feeling genuinely excited to create together 🤝🖤

The best work? It usually happens when both people feel seen, valued, inspired, and creatively safe… not when the vibe is forced, rushed, or only about what’s “cheap” 😮‍💨 Art hits different when there’s trust + intention involved. ✨

Y before people get defensive 😮‍💨🖤 this isn’t about shaming beginners, gatekeeping, ni telling people what to do with their bodies, art or time. Everybody starts somewhere! Peroooo… let’s stop acting like TFP/collabs = free photos just because someone owns a camera 📸🥴 Respectfully, there’s a HUGE difference between genuinely wanting to build, learn, practice y align creatively… versus just chasing access because someone said no. Your choices quietly speak for you 👀 who you shoot with, how you move after rejection, if you respect boundaries, if you’re actually investing in your craft or just hoping proximity gets you somewhere.

And ima say this softly pero directo 😬✨ if multiple photographers repeatedly decline y then someone suddenly runs to whoever has the least boundaries, “weakest” work, or says yes to literally everyone… people notice. Creative communities notice. This “pick me, choose me, give me free content” climate has honestly gotten exhausting 😮‍💨 Being beautiful, alternative, spicy, edgy, or aesthetic is not the same thing as being prepared, collaborative, professional y safe. Learn to pose, build your portfolio, respect people’s labor, accept a no con gracia… Because discernment matters, standards matter y not every “yes” is actually aligned for you. 🖤

Estas fotos con literalmente feel like living inside a pink dreamy fever dream 💕✨ blurry lights, soft textures, glitter, fantasy, se*******ad y poder femenino all melting together at once 😮‍💨🩷 y honestly, this is the kind of imagery I LOVE creating because it reminds people que softness doesn’t cancel out strength… y sensuality doesn’t cancel out depth.

As creatives, we need to stop acting like s3x workers, spicy creators y hyperfeminine women can’t also be art, emotion, storytelling y intention 🫶🏽 Bats brought such confident yet soft energy into this set y together we leaned fully into that surreal baddie fantasy vibe ☁️💋 almost like a modern day muñeca fantasy filtered through desire, self expression y reclamation.

Y maybe that’s what I love most about photography… being able to create worlds where mujeres like us aren’t reduced to stereotypes, shame, or projections. We get to exist as muses, artists, fantasies, humans, softness, chaos y power all at the same time 🖤📸✨

Hay una versión de muchas mujeres que el mundo nunca truly sees… la que smiles while mentally drowning, la que keeps performing strength while fighting herself internally 🖤🥀 y eso fue exactamente lo que Diana’s inquiry tapped into for me.

Este concepto no era about looking “pretty,” it was about confronting the inner dialogue, the emotional chaos, the pressure to keep it together, the masks we wear just to survive. La mujer fuerte también se rompe. También doubts herself. También gets tired. Y aun así… sigue adelante 😮‍💨✨

These images feel like anxiety, self reflection, emotional fragmentation, healing y reclamation all at once. Como fotógrafa, those are the stories I’ll always want to create space for… because sometimes art says the things we struggle putting into words. Gracias for trusting my weird little brain y vulnerable vision 🫶🏽 Makeup + assistance by the beautiful 💄✨

✨🖤 Latina goth bat heart behind the lens y somehow still learning new ways to see people… that’s the magic of Creative Freedom Sessions 🦇📸 no rigid molds, no “perfect” aesthetic to fit into, just storytelling, instinct, emotion, chaos, softness, sensuality, shadow work, glamour, vulnerability y the version of you that’s been begging to exist louder. From dreamy angelic energy ☁️ to dark feminine intensity 🕯️, from softness to power, from tenderness to rebellion… this is the range I live for as an artist.

Endlessly grateful to every soul that has trusted my spontaneous visions, my weird little ideas, my “wait… hold on, let me try something” moments 😭😂 because together we’ve created worlds, not just photos. These sessions are for the misfits, the feelers, the alt babes, the romantics, the people healing, evolving, reclaiming themselves y wanting to actually feel seen through art. 🫶✨

If my work resonates with you, support goes such a long way 🤍 like, comment, save, share this reel with someone who’d love this vibe y if you’ve been thinking about booking a session… maybe this is your sign 👀🖤 link in bio.

Revisiting these ahora se siente más ritual than retouch 🖤🌑✨ like… esta energía no es soft for approval, it’s dark feminine reclamation; control, seduction, presence sin explicación. no está performing for the gaze… she’s commanding it, como si already sabe el efecto que tiene y still chooses to hold her power close 😮‍🔥 and with that recent full moon in Scorpio?? whew… that was all about truth, shadow, transformation, shedding lo que ya no aligns and this set feels exactly like that moment cuando you stop diluting yourself and just become 🦂 from a photography lens, everything aquí was intentional af: soft sculpting light hugging her body while shadows carve depth, that hazy veil creating distance like you’re witnessing something sacred, not consuming it, minimal tones letting texture + skin speak louder, y those elongated, tension-filled poses holding both vulnerability y dominance at once… nada aquí es accidental, not even the way she looks back like “I see you seeing me” 👁️ this isn’t about being desired… it’s about being felt, and choosing when, how, y por quién 💋📸

Main character energy pero make it earned 😈🖤✨anime villain origin story x Bratz doll confidence… standing in front of my own work, my own world, my own timeline 📸💫

Originally this event was set for 4/25… pero el weather came in on some last minute chaos 🌧️ so we had to pivot to 4/26. I know that shift affected who could pull up, y I honor that, pero también… the irony of it landing on the last day of Uranus in Ta**us?? yeah, that felt loud, like a full closing chapter moment I couldn’t have scripted even if I tried.

I intentionally curated a wide range of pieces; old + new, soft + dark, growth + chaos… images that really reflect the last cycle of my life, who I’ve been, what I’ve built, and everything I’ve moved through to get here 🖤✨ this wasn’t just a display… it was a timeline, a release, y a statement.

Huge thank you to for the space and opportunity to bring this vision to life 🖤 and to everyone who came through, showed love, danced, supported, y even took pieces of my art home with them 🥹📸 that part means everything.

Imperfect, unexpected, still aligned.
I showed up fully for myself… and that’s the part that stays.

✨ Some of these prints are still available for purchase, send me a message and I’ll show you what’s left, I can also mail it directly to you 📦🖤

There’s something about the dark feminine that people love to romanticize… pero rarely sit with 🖤✨ this set with in my studio wasn’t just aesthetic, it was embodiment.

The duality, the distortion, the stitched shadows we carry y still show up anyway… that’s real. And the 🎪 “freak” theme? It’s intentional, porque historically, anything outside the norm; too emotional, too sensual, too loud, too different… gets labeled as spectacle, as something to stare at instead of understand.

Women have BEEN put on display for simply existing outside expectations… so this was me flipping that narrative 😈🔥 from a creative photography perspective, I leaned into motion blur, duplication, y surreal composition to mirror that inner fragmentation vs power… like we’re always holding multiple versions of ourselves at once and none of them are wrong.

This is reclamation.
This is art as truth.
This is the beauty in the “too much.” 💃🏽🕯️🩸

Just because someone likes your work, knows you personally, supported you before, or assumes you’ll “look out” does not mean they’re entitled to your time, creative energy, studio access, gear, editing, or discounted/free labor. 😮‍💨📸

Being a photographer means running a business, not being an endlessly available favor machine. Y’all love to say “support small business” until the invoice hits and suddenly boundaries feel personal. 😭💅🏽

From a photographer’s perspective, clear pricing is not disrespect, saying no is not attitude, and choosing sustainability over overextending is not “switching up”… it’s called learning, protecting your craft, and respecting the value of your own work. 🖤

The right clients may not always have the budget, and that’s okay, but respectful people don’t punish creatives for having standards. Affording me and respecting me are two different things, but if you can’t do the first, you can still absolutely do the second. ✨

Hi, I’m Mariela 🖤✨ NYC based photographer capturing everything from soft, sensual, moody portraits to bold, experimental, in-your-face visuals 📸🔥 my work isn’t meant to fit into one box… it reflects how I feel, how I see, how I experience people and moments 🌊 sometimes dark, sometimes dreamy, sometimes raw as hell, but always intentional.

If something here resonates with you, if you feel it even a little… share it, send it, let it reach who it’s meant for 🫶🏽 because art like this deserves to be seen beyond just algorithms 💭✨
