I'm Marien J. Malloy
Meet your photographer
& I'm so glad you're here
I'm Marien, a bilingual Pittsburgh wedding photographer born in Venezuela. I carry the warmth of home into every story I tell — crafting images that feel timeless, genuine, and full of soul.
I work best with couples who want their wedding to feel like them. Warm, genuine, and a little relaxed. If you have ever thought "I am not very photogenic," you have found your photographer.
"Whether you're shy and need gentle guidance or ready to dance like nobody's watching, I've got you! I believe in creating a comfortable, fun experience where you can truly be yourselves".
My motto

With 5 years of experience capturing love stories, I know how to bring out those genuine smiles and authentic moments. Together, we'll create timeless images that truly reflect who you are as a couple, filled with all the love, laughter, and joy of your special day.

Reading the room and matching your energy perfectly
My superpower?
Every couple has their own rhythm, and I'm here to match it perfectly! During engagement sessions, I love getting you moving and laughing – trust me, nothing breaks the ice like some silly moments together. By your wedding day, we'll be so comfortable together that having me around during those precious moments will feel like having another friend there to celebrate with you.
My style blends the nostalgic beauty of film with a modern twist, but what really makes the magic happen is how comfortable you'll feel just being yourselves. And don't worry - I'll bring the "hora loca" energy to your day, keeping the vibes high and the smiles flowing!
a few of my favs
Inspired by
Trips
I love exploring new cultures, places, and the emotions that come with creating fresh memories. So far, Paris has been my favorite destination. Do you have an amazing place you can share with me?
Cookies
One of my biggest weaknesses is cookies, especially lemon ones. In Pittsburgh, cookie tables are famous and delicious—I secretly joke that it’s one of the reasons I became a photographer.
My Love
My husband is my biggest supporter, always pushing me to be the best version of myself. From day one, he has stood by my side, believing in my journey as a photographer.
My Clients
My clients inspire me with their trust, giving me the opportunity to play such a crucial role on their wedding day. Their stories fill me with life and purpose.
