About

I’m an award-winning independent visual journalist and multimedia producer based in Atlanta, Ga. shooting assignments for national publications as I cultivate personal projects. Bylines include The Wall Street Journal, Education Week, The Guardian, The Week, US News and World Report and Femsplain. I also film and edit documentary-style advertising for folks like YouTube and Whole Foods and serve as a contributing editor for Scalawag Magazine, "a nonprofit dedicated to celebrating and examining the American South." My work opens an intimate window into the lives of my subjects and their families, often focusing on the intersections between economic justice, race and gender. I started my reporting career at a mid-sized newspaper in Tennessee where I worked my way up from photo intern to multimedia reporter. I spearheaded the video and photo coverage for our long term projects, building relationships and access to produce more than ten award-winning presentations.   My journalism honors include an EPPY, 2014 Dart Award finalist, Associated Press awards for photojournalism, multimedia and best website, the "Award of Excellence" from the Society of News Design, Green Eyeshade Awards for "Best Website" and "Best Multimedia,"  the McGill Journalism Fellowship and the Cox Media Leadership Certificate.

    Maura was able to work independently, understood the scope and creative approach, handle the interview, and working with a third party organization with very little supervision. The result was exactly what we needed. We would hire Maura again.

    Maura is always a great shooter that I can rely on for a quick turnaround and quality content. She meets deadline and is a great communicator.
