About Us

Since 2002, MLXPIX has been evolving. What started as a hobby, shooting abandoned buildings, has been refined into a stylized form of architecture/real estate photography. Taking elements from geometry, design, and architecture, each photo lends itself to being a separate piece of art, creating a gallery of images that is breathtaking. Each photo is taken with the space and feel in mind, helping each location produce a separate emotion that will attract the clientele you desire. We make sure the lighting is perfect, so we only shoot at certain times of day to ensure perfect views every time. We play with the light to bring out the essence of the natural light in the home. We see this as more than just a job for us. It is a form of art and our passion, and we strive to project that in every property we shoot.

Tanya V.
Founder, Photographer, Videographer, Editor

Tanya has been shooting since she was 8 years old using her mother's camera. In college, she decided to pursue her hobby and graduated with an AA in photography. In 2004, she started photographing her explorations in abandoned buildings and learned various creative lighting techniques. The only woman in Miami to shoot abandoned buildings, she was soon featured in various websites as a new and upcoming artist. She took a quick detour and dabbled in cinematography, ending up with 2 short films and a behind-the-scenes video for a music video which was showcased in Coral Gables for Sony Music. From there, she was hired by MTV networks to edit the dailies for 8th and Ocean. In 2006, she was hired by Majestic Properties because of her clean style and beautiful work with abandoned buildings, to shoot their real estate. She is still their house photographer. She has been published in various magazines around Miami like 944, Design District Magazine, Ocean Drive, DesignBookMag.com, and nationally by the Robb Report. Architecture and Design are her favorite photography subjects, and she also loves the macro world of nature.

THE EQUIPMENT

I use only the best equipment when shooting. My cameras are the highest resolution in Nikon. The Nikon D90 sports a 12.3 MPX sensor. I use 1 or 2 SB-800 flashes for a crisp clean look, and the Sigma 10-20mm aspherical lens, for a professional wide angle. The Sigma lens is the widest lens available that does not have perspective distortion like most wide angles. We researched until we found the combination of perfect equipment for properties. For headshots, I have my own studio where I have various backdrops, including a green screen. I use a Tamron 90mm 2.8 lens for a beautiful crisp clean look. I use Apple computers running Adobe Photoshop, 3DVista for virtual tours, Final Cut Pro for editing, Adobe Flash, and Adobe After Effects.

RECOMMENDATIONS BY HAPPY CUSTOMERS

Customer 1

"I just wanted to pass along some information regarding photography. Tom and I work with a photographer that specializes in property photos, and her rates are VERY competitive to CirclePix and VHT. Her work is better. She is a 'real' photographer versus the quick trained laymen that work for the above-mentioned companies. Her work is more versatile, and she's not GLUED to a tripod and can take pics from many angles and is quite creative. Hope this helps any realtors working with a budget!!" - Roxanne, Asst. to Tom Belcher, Keller Williams Realty
