ABOUT

Meet the Photographer

Hey friends!  My name is Cynthia Kotecki and I am the owner of Natalia Mae Photography - NMP Studios! As the creative force behind Natalia Mae Photography, I specialize in crafting vibrant, authentic, and storytelling imagery that celebrates life’s milestones — from high school seniors stepping into their next chapter to families preserving the moments that matter most.

Based in Southwest Michigan, I’ve built a boutique photography brand known for its personalized experience, exceptional client service, and heirloom-quality artwork. My mission is simple: to create imagery that is Real. Unique. You.

With a deep passion for connecting with people and a background rooted in both creativity and business, I’ve transformed my studio into a trusted name across Portage, Kalamazoo, and surrounding communities. Whether I’m photographing a senior session, designing custom wall art, or collaborating with local sports leagues, my goal is always the same — to create meaningful art that lasts a lifetime.

 

Specialties: Senior Portraits | Family Photography | Sports Portraits | Wall Art Design | Client Experience
