Mariah Tyes - Retrospectyes
A Fayetteville, North Carolina native by way of Buffalo New York, Mariah attended an Arts Academy school grades five through twelve. Her father allowed her to borrow his old Sony camera at the age of ten; she would always take photos of her friends, family and surroundings. Nostalgia is the most important part of photography to Mariah's work. Hence Retrospect - Tyes, the contemplation of the past. In 2011, Mariah relocated to Charlotte, NC in pursuit of her photography business and since, Retrospectyes Photography was born!
"I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul." - William Ernest Henley, Invictus
