He is highly professional especially when we used him for our family portraits. He brought all of his equipment in, and they came out beautifully! His personality shines in helping create relaxed and natural photographs. I've also worked with him for business photography and have been very happy and pleased with the results.

I retained him with very short notice and he came through with the most professional and well documented photos. I was unable to attend the shoot, but provided John with a shot list of images I was looking for and he over delivered on every single one! He gave me multiple options of several different scenarios and I was able to use the images that best fit my needs. His editing turn around time was very quick and he was very patient and timeline focused, even given the short turn around time that i provided him. His work is commendable and he was very easy to work with on this campaign effort. I would highly recommend John and plan on hiring him again for future efforts.

Our experience with Maria was excellent! We were initially overwhelmed when trying to select a…read morephotographer for our interfaith wedding, but seeing Maria's photos on her website made the decision easy. We really appreciated her style of photography - deep rich colors and focus on the couple. Other photographers seemed to have a lot of strange angles and washed out colors, which we were trying to avoid. Hiring Maria was a breeze. She is responsive by email and always happy to jump on a call when needed. Part of her package included engagement photos, which were extremely helpful when putting together our save the dates and website. She is intuitive, yet also did a good job of asking us for our preferences to confirm. The wedding day was also a breeze, and Maria documented all of our key moments without being intrusive at all. Maria's turnaround times are excellent, and she was never late with delivering sneak peeks or the digital albums. Finally, we also worked with Maria on the final physical photo album. She was very flexible and allowed us to have multiple rounds of revisions. She was very accommodating even when we wanted to swap out many photos for more preferred variations. It was a lot of work and Maria did not hesitate to help us develop the perfect album. Overall my wife and I would highly recommend Maria for any event based on our experience working with her for our wedding. Thanks Maria!

Maria was an absolute pleasure to work with! She was very easy to work with, accommodating, and…read moreconstantly stayed in touch with us to help us get the photos of our dreams! She made sure to answer every question we had right away, even agreeing to get on a phone call/zoom meeting as needed. She takes the time to get to know you, your spouse, and understand your wedding traditions, culture and anything else important to you. Maria has a unique approach to her photos which I haven't seen before. She is also super patient. For example, my wife and I don't typically like posing for pictures, but Maria was there to guide us and tell us which way to look, where to put our hands, etc. As we got more comfortable in front of the camera, she let us be candid and do our own thing in order to grab truly authentic photos that showcased our love, which made our photoshoot so much more fun! At the end of the day, it felt like we were hanging out with a friend taking photos, rather that working with a professional photographer. We had a south asian wedding which spanned multiple days. As all south asians may know, our families are not exactly the easiest to coordinate or give instructions to, especially during a wedding. Despite all the chaos, Maria stayed calm, patient and continued doing her thing. She even stayed extra time for some of the events without us asking to ensure we got all the photos we needed. After the wedding, Maria stayed in constant communication with us regarding our album. We went through multiple revisions before finally getting the album of our dreams. My friends and family to this day are singing praises about how magical our photos look. I have been sending Maria's contact information to all of my friends and family who are looking for a photographer. I can't thank her enough for all the work she has done to make my wife and I look and feel special during our time together.

Alyssa Maloof is a rockstar! We stumbled upon her work while googling images of our venue. My…read moreartsy fartsy husband instantly fell in love with Alyssa's website and online portfolio. After an incredibly generous offer on a 6 hour wedding package & engagement photo session, we booked our dream photographer. One of the best decisions ever! I could go on and on about how promptly Alyssa responded to emails/ calls, or her professional online invoicing system, or how easy it was to schedule our engagement session, but I'd rather focus on the emotional aspect of Alyssa's work. Some background -- my husband and I have been together for 11 years, we have an endless supply of inside jokes, and we love living in Philadelphia. Alyssa has an artistic eye, an amazing ability to work with light, and a familiarity with the city we call home. Our City Hall/ Dilworth Park engagement session with Alyssa was so fun! She kept things loose and light. Her hand gestures and silent communication while shooting kept us laughing and led to beautiful, natural photos. There were several moments during our wedding when I needed to take a break to rest my back. Alyssa stuck with us when we took our down time and we ended up having some great conversations -- letting her in on some of our jokes, my recurring whale dream, and the story of how we first met. We truly felt comfortable with Alyssa. Ten days later, we received about a dozen teaser photos. She captured our happiest moments in such unique and artistic light. We're thrilled with what we've seen so far and can't wait to see our entire portfolio of pictures. We highly recommend Alyssa Maloof Photography and would absolutely work with her in the future!
