Hi, I’m Tina — a Tampa native, lifelong baby lover, and the heart behind Tina Marie Studio. I specialize in newborn, maternity, and family photography for modern moms who value emotion-filled images and beautiful artwork to match.

Before photography, I spent years as a certified neonatal therapist and speech-language pathologist, specializing in infant development and feeding. My background means I bring not only a calming presence to your session but also a deep understanding of how to gently support your baby’s needs — so every moment we create feels safe, comfortable, and natural.

From Healthcare to Heirlooms

I grew up as the second oldest of eight siblings in a beautifully chaotic, blended family. I’ve always been drawn to the tenderness of babies and the depth of family dynamics — and it’s that perspective that shapes the way I photograph.

What began as a creative spark in a high school film photography class has evolved into a heartfelt mission: to help mothers see the beauty of their everyday and preserve it with intention.

Whether we’re documenting your newborn’s tiny details or the joyful chaos of life with littles, I approach each session with a mix of gentle direction and documentary-style storytelling — creating emotive images that feel honest, connected, and timeless.

Your Artwork Belongs on the Wall

If I had a dollar for every time a mom told me, “I haven’t had the time to print our photos,” I’d have that Christian Dior bag I have been dreaming of.

That’s why I now offer more than just digital galleries. I help busy moms turn their portraits into heirloom artwork — whether that’s a custom gallery wall, fine art prints, or an album your kids will flip through for years to come. My job isn’t done until your memories are off your screen and onto your walls.

Motherhood is fleeting. But your love, your connection, your story — it deserves to be remembered. I’d be honored to help you preserve it.

Let’s create something beautiful together.
