Photography by May Arason-Li bio picture

  • Hello!

    Thanks for stopping by. In case you didn’t know, I love photography and I am fortunate to be able to share my passion with you. I simply cannot imagine going through life without photographs - there are just so many reasons for taking photos. To remember, to relive, to share, to learn, to tell a story, to create, to feel... I could go on forever. The wonderful thing about photographs is that they are instantaneous. And as we change through life, so do the images we want to capture. I believe in capturing beautiful, modern images for modern families. More importantly, I want to capture the connection between family members. I care very much about getting to know my clients and having fun during our sessions. I am not trying to create the perfect image of you - rather, real images of genuine happy, silly, fun and tender family moments. This site features my most recent session along with some personal images peppered in. I am so thrilled to have met so many wonderful people and they have all inspired me in one way or another.

    Please enjoy the photos on this site and by all means, please feel free to get in touch with me if you think my style and vision matches yours.

Wendy, who is three, is a cutie and entertaining as always. We even shot near a miniature castle, perfect for a little princess. […]

Not so long ago, I met a six-month old boy named Charlie and he had some of the biggest blue eyes I’d ever seen. He loved sitting up and riding up high on his daddy’s shoulders. And he blew lots and lots of kisses (well, raspberries) at me the whole time. So darn cute. I […]

What can I say about this family and these kids – they are just fantastic people! Zoe and Ethan are another year older and several inches taller – oh my goodness, time really does fly! And I loved Zoe’s silly smile with her front baby tooth dangling, on the verge of falling out but not […]
