about 

Hello, my name is Malaika Hilson. I am a lifestyle and personal branding portrait photographer based in Detroit, Michigan.

I specialize in candid, authentic photography. That means I love to shoot original moments in great natural lighting. 

I traded my life in corporate America as a marketing director for photography. This gives me more time for my family and focusing on my clients. 

I use all that experience in marketing when I plan shoots. From location scouting, to props & even thinking through how to shoot, to best serve the way you'll use your images.   

​

My husband, kid and almond chai lattes are my favorite things.
