I'm Maricel Cruz and I'm a wedding and portrait photographer based out of Chicago, Illinois. This is where I'll share my latest work and maybe a little bit about my life. I hope you enjoy reviewing my work.
My passion is photography first and food comes a VERY close second. Having an "eye" for photography certainly came to me by surprise when I borrowed my brother's camera to take photos of my niece and nephews at a pumpkin farm, which is when I decided to purchase my own camera. I found that I enjoyed photography more than I enjoyed eating my favorite foods... like I said, food is a very close second.
With the support of my amazing family and friends, my photography has evolved from what started out as an obsession to a passion that I am grateful to share with you. I believe my nieces and nephews think I am paparazzi, they seem to run from me when I have my camera in hand. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to feed them good food instead. :)
