Mariya Harley is a London-based hotel and resort photographer available for commissions across Saudi Arabia — including the new luxury destinations of the Red Sea, AlUla, NEOM, Diriyah and Riyadh. A residency or commission delivers 20–30 retouched editorial photographs, 2–3 cinematic Reels and full commercial usage rights.
Her audience advantage is uniquely suited to this market: the single largest segment of her 105K @mariyaharleylife following — around 43% — is in Saudi Arabia, with further reach across the UAE and Qatar. For a Saudi property opening to both domestic and GCC luxury travellers, that is built-in distribution to the exact audience, alongside professional assets the marketing team keeps.
Proof
A single two-night stay at Rixos Premium Dubrovnik produced 170K reach, 3,300 likes and 300 saves — alongside 20–30 retouched editorial photographs and 2–3 cinematic Reels the property keeps with full commercial usage rights. That is the model: professional assets your marketing team uses everywhere, plus distribution to an audience that is already planning luxury travel.
