Maria Chaney is a MA based photographer specializing in engagement/wedding and product photography. She graduated with her BFA from Montserrat College of Art in Beverly, MA in 2021; in addition to her studies, her freelance work has allowed her to gain real world experience in fashion and lifestyle photography, product photography, and website development. Her work has been exhibited at the Porter Mill Small Works Show, Montserrat’s Juried Open House Exhibition and Photography Departments Juried Exhibitions, as well as Art by any Mean Jewelry website. One of her main objectives is to portray an interpretation rather than a literal representation in order to bring an awareness and understanding to the more intimate topics in a more creative way. With the use of desaturated tonal values she brings the attention to the importance of the content without being distracted by potential color issues.
