This weekend I had the chance to photograph 7 week old Copper Aplin, son of Micah, and Jody Wood Aplin. This is a example as well of a on-location photo shoot, this set was inside Cooper’s room, in the comfort of their own home. I can always bring my equipment with me, being able to transform any room into a photo studio.It was such a treat! Here are some of the images that captured some treasured moments! Congratulations again to the new parents Micah & Jody! I look forward to capturing more moments in your family’s life!

“Shooting with Maria is always guaranteed to be a good time”

I had so much fun at this shoot! Shooting with Maria is always guaranteed to be a good time.. She is creative in what she wants and allows me to be weird and fun.. I don’t feel the need to constantly fidget or become bored with generic poses.. I can be as adventurous and as outrageous as I want to be.. That is so refreshing! To me, having your photo taken means you must stand still and stiff, yet still manage to look relaxed.. I felt loose and comfortable, like it was just another day.. That’s what I look forward to in these shoots is just having the freedom to have a good time and play!

“ Beautiful Horizon Photography truly captured the emotion and love that surrounded my and my husband’s wedding. I was blown away by sooo many of the photos I didn’t know which ones to choose so I purchased all of them on a high resolution CD! I’m so glad Beautiful Horizon Photography was flexible when it came to granting me rights to print my wedding photos where ever was best for me… they even recommended a place I could get them printed for a low cost! Talk about Customer Service! I would absolutely recommend anyone to use Beautiful Horizon Photography. Thanks to Maria Hargrove and her photography team for doing an awesome job for me and my family! ”

The Face Behind the Camera- Maria Hargrove

bhp — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 19:07:36 +0000

Wondering where the name “Beautiful Horizon” comes from? Maria Cueto Hargrove, was born and raised in Brazil ,in the city of “Belo Horizonte”(translates to Beautiful Horizon) by Argentinian parents Leon Eduardo Cueto,and Mirtha Elena Scilletta de Cueto .That was the home she knew for the first 10 years of her life, and either than the US, it will always be a home to her.
When she left Brazil she moved to Toronto,Canada; where she learned English.After two years, she had to move to Turin, Italy; where she learned Italian.After living for two years in Italy, the family moved to the U.S, in Nashville,TN; this is where Maria studied her four years of high school, graduating in 2003.Soon after graduation, moved to Birmingham,AL, where she began college at Jefferson State.After one year in Birmingham, she transferred to The University of Alabama, then transferring to Shelton State where she received her certificate in Cosmetology. Maria always knew she belonged in a creative career, and she always saw things differently than others, she always photographed differently from a young age, but it came naturally to her, until one day her friends saw her images of when she decided to do a small photo shoot with a friend just for fun, and they encouraged to continue taking photos, and that was the day Maria decided to pursue photography with all she had. Currently she continues to live in Tuscaloosa,Alabama. Throughout all of her life,she traveled to many other countries in Europe,and South America, she is also fluent in Spanish, Portuguese, and Italian. Travel broadens ones view of the world and people, which teaches you to appreciate the beauty in everything.
