About

My name is Xamara L. Maisonet. My husband and I live in the beautiful city of Clermont, Florida. I love to travel and document life. My love for travel led me to my passion for photography. My interest in photography started when my husband and I started traveling. I wanted to document our travels; it began as a hobby thirteen years ago until I decided to work on the art of photography at a professional level. I am currently working on my MFA at the Academy of Art University, which I should be completing in May 2026.

I had developed my unique fine art style through my project, “Our Time on Earth, Living the Dash; Freezing Seconds That Never Stopped”. My fine art images are a creation between a frozen moment and the representation of moving time; they exhibit a blending of a moment with movement. I want to embrace through my photography the beauty of moments in life, people, and this planet, despite the limited time that we live on Earth. Because time won’t stop for us, I will make art with it, utilizing the lines, the blur, and the colorful traces of the movement of time to paint over the frozen moments.

My travel photography is engaging and colorful; it can be displayed by itself or be part of a travel story. My style includes a blend of natural light, bright colors, sharpness, and contrast for a dynamic feel. Shapes, forms, color, leading lines, and sometimes movement add to the interesting features of the images, making them unique and intriguing to explore.

I also explore other styles like B&W and multiple exposures that I call “Multiple Moments in One”. Now I am also experimenting with mixed media, using acrylics to paint over some of my photography, giving a completely new meaning to the photograph and creating a whole new image.

Lastly, my new photography project, “Life Without You” is where my heart is right now after my daughter passed away this past April. It is a journey with words and images, embedded with time. It is a transcendent expression from pain to beauty.
