Maloman Studios

y were also incredibly professional, punctual, and a genuinely nice people. They made the entire process easy and fun. I would highly recommend using them for any occasion!

use in Central Park. First, Candace and I had come up with a schedule for taking photos (getting ready, first look, going to Central Park). We ordered a car service for the wedding party based on this schedule. Then after the first look photos Candace tells me she expected that the bride and groom would go to the park first (30 minutes before the rest) and of course we had not reserved a car for that time because it was not on the schedule. So we wasted 20 minutes trying to get a cab and during this time no pictures were taken - Stephan did not adapt to the circumstances and take photos at the hotel where we had gotten ready; we all just sat there in the lobby. Stephan, my husband and I then got in a cab and finally headed to the park. And that's when the worst happened - Stephan left all his equipment (other than the camera around his neck) in the cab. It was too late once he realized it, and he wasted another 30 minutes trying to track down the cab - again, no photos taken during this time. Luckily he had a second photographer with some of the same gear, but this second photographer did not show up for 30 minutes (he was still at the hotel), and he was still missing some equipment. For example, there was no reflector and because the wedding was inside and a flash was required, the photos were negatively affected (Stephan even asked my father, who has some photography experience, if he had a reflector). After the wedding, there were communications between me and Candace, and my husband and Candace about what had happened. Candace insisted there was no effect on the photos, but this is false. We have fewer than 700 pictures for 9 hours of work - much less than expected. There are no pictures of me alone in my dress (which Candace blamed on it raining; she gave no explanation for why pictures could not be taken inside the Boathouse - a lovely venue). The indoor pictures with a flash have shadows and reflections that would have been avoided if the equipment (in particular, the reflector) were not lost. Candace became defensive and the only compensation we received for their mistakes was $200 in free prints. The unprofessional response to their own mistakes is why I cannot recommend them.

-going during the getting ready sessions and were fast and efficient during formals and portraits. We appreciated how subtle they were during the party and ceremony, we barely noticed they were there until our beautiful photos came back! Definitely splurge on a photographry team like Maloman! You will not be sorry once you see all your memories captured so perfectly.

before I was even dating my now-husband :)). Stephan and Candace are amazing to work with and so incredibly talented, artistic and passionate about the art of photography. We couldn't be happier with our beautiful photographs from the wedding. Photography is such an important aspect of a wedding, and I would highly recommend hiring Maloman if you are looking for high quality, editorial-style wedding photography!
