Well it's been almost 4 years since I got married and Mark Kauffman has not delivered anything that we paid for under our wedding contract and h...
as no intention on giving us anything in the near future . He is a con man who makes you feel sorry for him because he has it so rough in life and he can't make his bills and promises you things if you give him more money. And yes people fall for it I was not the only one who did. So my advise for anyone who sees this if you hire him for any services you will not receive anything. Also he sells life insurance too and gets you that way too. DESPICABLE human being that takes advantage of people during the most important time in there life. I hope you Mark Kauffman can look at yourself in the mirror and see that you are a DISGUSTING HUMAN BEING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this photographer might have been good at one time, but my daughter got married 10/09 and we still do not have parents albums and only got the main album 2 months ago. he kept cal...
ling offering us with new deals because he needed cash. everytime i went to see him he asked me for more money. my wedding planner knows he stole from us and we are now in the process of suing him. stay away!!!!
I used Mark Kauffman for my wedding many years ago. The pictures were truly amazing and my album is still one of my most precious possessions. The album tells a story from the fi...
rst page. It really captured the spirit of the day, and I am very glad I used Mark Kauffman. Your wedding is a once in a lifetime experience and pictures and video are the only mediums which capture it. In my opinion, it is really something to be left to professionals. I know of at least two people who used less reputable photographers and never even received their pictures.
thanks!
We had a rough wedding but one of the things I was supremely happy with was my photographer. I put a lot of time and effort into choosing a great one. I researched in the area and ...
looked up reviews. I wanted a photojournalistic style and someone who wouldn't leave at the time cutoff and would capture every emotion I could never see. When I got my pictures back I cried and cried because they were beyond my highest expectations. I saw so many things I could never have seem on my crazy wedding day, from my nephews admiring a duck in a pond to my close friend wiping her eye while we were at the altar saying our vows.
Angelica Studios in NY gave me more that I could have ever paid. My photos are priceless. He also is great at making albums similar to ones on his site www.artisticalbums.com They come in many different formats. Mark Kauffman is known in the industry for following the latest trends without losing sight of the traditions that have made wedding albums so timeless. You must have him make you an album. They are amazing!
Dear fellow brides,
I only say 'best kept secret' because I am absolutely shocked that Angelica Studios is not even mentioned as a vendor on TheKnot! Whereas it seems to me tha...
t so many other photographers (and DJs, and reception halls, etc.) do so much shameless self-promoting it's hard to know who really is a worthwhile establishment, Angelica Studios speaks for itself (see angelicastudios.com).
Mark Kaufmann, owner and founder of Angelica Studios, has a degree in Fine Arts as well as teaches photography in the city, so he has an interest in the art as well as the business of photography. This too is apparent from the beautiful portraits of not only happy couples but mothers-to-be, families, and his own children lining the walls of his studio. He has a different philosophy about wedding photography, and he crafts photo packages to the needs of his clients. We were a little jittery, so he met with us several times in plainclothes just so we could get used to the camera! Best of all, you are not obligated to purchase certain packages or 'levels' in order to obtain proofs or albums. On a rather tight budget, my husband and I were still able to hire two of Angelica's photographers (one using color and the other sepia film) for our ceremony and reception - and they drove a considerable distance - while obtaining many proofs to use for scrapbooking ourselves. And now, nearly two years later, we are able to sit down (without any pressure) and take our time to craft an album with him.
I was so pleased with the professionalism, confidence, and mastery of Mark and his photographers. Not only do I have amazing pictures from our wedding day, I know a great photographer to go to when our family expands!
