Discovering the Art of Light

ABOUT ME

Graziela, the creative talent behind the lens.

I’m Graziela, photographer, visual storyteller, and devoted moment keeper based in Tulum, Mexico. With every click of the shutter, I’m here to help you feel seen, celebrated, and completely yourself.

My journey into photography started with a deep love of art, light, and human connection. Over the years, what began as a creative pursuit has evolved into a soulful practice, one that honors your story, your energy, and the quiet, beautiful in between moments that often say the most.

As a mother, friend, and lifelong observer of the world around me, I bring a sense of care and calm to every session. Whether we're on the beach, in the jungle, or in your favourite cozy corner of Tulum, I create space for you to simply be, because that’s when the magic happens.

In a world of endless images, I focus on creating the ones that truly matter, the ones you'll come back to again and again. The ones that remind you of your strength, your joy, your tenderness.

This work isn’t just about good lighting or pretty locations. It’s about presence. Trust. And capturing a little slice of your life that you’ll never get back but will always have, through these images.

What to Expect

My work blends editorial artistry with heartfelt intention. I specialize in:

  • Branding photography for entrepreneurs, creatives, and soulful businesses

  • Family and maternity sessions that honor connection and legacy

  • Couples portraits filled with movement, laughter, and warmth

Every session is guided by intuition, collaboration, and a deep respect for your story. I don’t just take pictures I help you feel at ease in front of the lens, so we can create something meaningful together.

The Essence of My Story

Today, I am a full-time lifestyle photographer in Tulum, Mexico. I continue to love and learn about this art and everything that comes with it. The essence of your story has become a guiding element of my photography work so I wanted to share a little about the essence of my story as well, through images:

Working with Grazi was effortless. She has a calming spirit, and a keen eye for light and shadow play. I think her skill exists in part due to her intuitive connections.

Much love Grazi. Thank you.

 
 

My Personal Projects

Photography isn’t just a job for me, it’s also a creative way for me to give back!

Gather4Giving

I have been lucky enough to travel extensively around the world and I have always had my camera with me. My time spent in Africa left a huge impression on me and resulted in an ongoing and successful collaboration with a primary school in an area of Uganda called Lake Bunyonyi. Together we have built a breakfast program called Feed Their Minds. Approximately 300 students at the school get breakfast of posho (porridge) every morning and also something for lunch when the funds allow.

With the support of so many people, we have kept this program going since 2016 and I have been able to sell my photography fine art prints to contribute to the success of the program.

You can read all about the program and how it evolved on our GoFundMe page. If you would like to gather with us and donate, no amount is too small and we would be extremely grateful to have you join us on this project!

 “Graziela has not only a great eye but a zest for life that comes across in her photos. I will never forget following her through a train car in Tanzania watching Grazi befriend young and old all along the way. She’s someone everyone wants to be with – and as a result, she’s able to capture the magical and the elusive.”

 

“For me, the camera is a sketchbook,
an instrument of intuition and spontaneity.”

— Henri Cartier-Bresson

“Grazi’s energy, excitement and passion for photography is an incredible experience unto itself, and we just cannot wait to adventure with her in the future, as we know she will capture those defining moments in life.”
