Marilia Capeli is many things — painter, photographer, beautiful, brave, expanding, creative. At the top of her list, she will not be defined by one thing and lives into creativity in every sense of the word. At a young age, Marilia flew to Jacksonville, Florida, from her family and home in Sao Paulo, Brazil. She came to the US for school and began a creative journey. She took risks and steered herself in the direction of what her deep intuition and listening kept telling her. She was a Creative and there was no stopping her. Currently, her passionate work can be seen on the screen and pages of Natural Life, a national lifestyle brand synonymous with passionate dreamers and bohemian inspired decor. Her work with private clients and friends equally keeps her eye passionate for the work she says she knows she’s here to do. Through trusting her process, honoring her father and committed to work to make her dreams come true, Marilia graduated from college, got her Masters Degree and successfully obtained her green card. Challenges are nothing new; but her vision is full of possibility and drive to stay in the space of passion; her story is one of commitment and just taking the next creative step. Her lens is pointed in the right direction. She directs her steps from strengthening her listening to herself and shares how much family — especially her father — has been part of her growth in remembering what she loves.
Photographer, painter, creative. Marilia Capeli is many things — beautiful and brave are at the top of the list. At a young age, Marilia flew to Jacksonville, Florida, away from her family and home in Sao Paulo, Brazil. She came to the US for school and began a creative journey. She took risks and steered herself in the direction of what her deep intuition and listening kept telling her — she was a Creative and there was no stopping her.
Currently, as the staff photographer of Natural Life, a national lifestyle brand synonymous with passionate dreamers and bohemian inspired decor, Marilia is the epitome of the American dream — hard work, committed to the process — and it almost looks like it all landed in her lap. But challenges are nothing new to her; and none of this happened easily. Hers is a story of commitment, passion, and vision. She works with private clients, as well, with a keen eye for creating thoughtful, inspired therapeutic images — her clients love the love and beauty she captures.
Through trusting the process, honoring her father, and committed to work to make her dreams come true, Marilia graduated from college, got her Masters Degree and successfully obtained her green card. She directs her steps from strengthening her listening to herself and shares how much family — especially her father — has been part of her growth in remembering what she loves. Her lens is pointed in the right direction.
