Koman Photography and Cinematography

professional, and yet very easygoing. They made us very comfortable, and made sure to make our sessions fun for us. All we could really say when we saw our photos was WOW! The photos were so beautiful! We really did enjoy working with the Komans and we cannot wait to see the rest of our wedding photos! Thank you so much John and Marlene, you guys are amazing!

autifully preserved because of the magic that John and Marlene make with their cameras. Not only do they take the most stunning photos, but they are also such wonderful people. They are both caring, kind and patient. They are easy and fun to work with, and they make you feel natural in front of the camera. I got married in Sonoma County, and John and Marlene traveled there from Southern California very willingly. They are brilliant with camera angles and lighting, and they make the end product look ethereal. I rate Koman Photography a 10 out of 10, and I recommend them to all other engaged couples!

oto's that much more perfect. They are a husband and wife team so they know how to deal with family members and understand what photo's to get. They are 2 of the most professional and talented people we've had the privilege of working with.

at what they do. They met us in Venice for the first half of the shoot and then drove all the way to Malibu to shoot more on the beach. Leading up to the big day, they were always available to answer any questions we had. On our wedding day, despite the fact that it was in the middle of July in LA, it was raining! Not only were Marlene and and John so calming, they offered to give us another opporunity to shoot photos if these one's didn't come out how we wanted them. They love each other and they love their work and it really shows. We are so thankful we had them capturing this moment for us. Highly highly recommend!

. From our first meeting they made sure to answer all of our questions and were really easy to get along with. Throughout our communications they were always very professional, super sweet, and very prompt in every reply. And of course, their photos speak for themselves! They're commonly featured on StyleMePretty and you could be too! They use soft natural lighting and make sure your photos have a variety of shots, romantic, classic, natural, posed, whimsical, fun, wide angles, close ups, you'll have so many beautiful shots to choose from... That will be your biggest problem! My bestie told me when she got her photos back (by another photographer) she only had a few she liked. When we received our shots, it was quite the opposite! Marlene and john work so well together that they capture you looking your best! And they're such a pleasant and sweet couple themselves, it's really easy to be natural and sweet around them too. We truly felt blessed to be working with a team who truly have passion and pride in their talent and hard work. We absolutely love love love all of our photos and I couldn't recommend anyone else to any of my besties! Even when it rained on our wedding day, we missed some shots that we wanted outside, but we were still happy with the photos we got! They were amazing! As if the Komans weren't already our new best friends, they offered us a free post session to make sure we had even more shots together!!!! They really are the greatest and I'm sure you'll agree. This is the day you want to capture so perfectly, and the Komans will do that for you.

soon as we met Marlene and John we were even happier. These two are so caring, funny, kindhearted and professional. Moreover, they are two of the most talented photographers ever! After seeing a few previews of our pictures on their cameras, I knew we had made the right choice! I am truly astounded by their work. We were also able to spend a lot of time with them taking photos as well. Marlene and John made sure that we made use of every second, taking as many photos as they could. We had so much fun with them and felt completely at ease throughout the day. I cannot say enough great things about these two. Marlene and John, you two are the best!!!!!! Thanks a million!!!! :) We will cherish our beautiful photos forever.

ing and we couldn’t be happier. Our family has been extremely happy with all the pictures. Not only are they great photographers but they are extremely kind and communicating with them was incredibly easy. They had great advice on locations and knew how to make my husband and I at ease in front of the camera. We would definitely recommend them to our friends and family. Thank you again Marlene and John!

r what they do and it is clearly illustrated through their photographs. The thing that I love about John and Marlene is their innate way of making you feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Sometimes, taking pictures in front of people that you just met can be a daunting and uncomfortable task. But during our Engagement Photo Shoot, John and Marlene were able to make the shoot so much fun and we ended up being great friends at the end of the session. Then, when the wedding day came around, Andrew and I were so comfortable around them that taking pictures was highly enjoyable and a breeze. I would highly recommend to book them as your wedding photographers as it is a decision that Andrew and I are so happy that we made! We will now have the most beautiful and perfect pictures to commemorate our special day.

gement during the holidays when we were both able to get out to Los Angeles on vacation. They helped us with a payment plan, and were very flexible all around. They worked with us right away, even subbing out an engagement shoot and switching their packages around so that we could afford to get everything we wanted. They were always very sweet and professional, and we loved that they are a husband and wife team because they worked excellent together. My husband and I were intimidated by the camera and we both don't really enjoy being the center of attention; the Koman's were so helpful in getting us out of our shell and remained patient and kind, which really helped us feel comfortable during the pictures. That was so important for us! Many of our guests commented on how friendly they were, especially during the family photos. Our grand entrance was delayed and they were kind enough to stay a over their paid time to make sure they got the shot. Photographers are expensive anywhere you go, but if you find a couple like the Koman's, it makes it all worth it! We haven't seen our photos yet, but I know that they are going to be just beautiful. They are very talented.

in love and don't feel that anybody else could have done it better. The second we started I felt comfortable with them and had a blast through the entire shoot. I could tell they really cared about each photo they took, and handle their art with such vision and passion. It wasn't just "another shoot", it seemed they really wanted to be there which really lets you rest assured that their passion will be transferred into your entire shoot never leaving you disappointed. Unfortunately they won't be able to shoot our wedding, but I would hire them again in a heartbeat!!!

this to heart - add into the mix my husband is about the most photo averse man on the planet. It was going to take someone with patience and a lot of skill to properly capture our beautiful day. Marlene and John did all that and more. My wedding photographs were incredible and my final album is a work of art. They are funny, engaging, creative, and talented and if you really want your wedding captured in the moment, in your environment looking happy and relaxed and oh so lovely this is your team. I really cannot properly state how happy you will be to have them capture all your best moments. And yes, Marlene and John will get smiling pictures of those who hate cameras. Miracle workers!

John were wonderful. They are amazingly professional, and also very warm and personable. And so organized! Several members of my wedding party mistook Marlene for our wedding planner because she generally had a better idea of what was going on and who was where than even me or the groom.

I am generally pretty camera shy, but they did a great job of making me feel comfortable and working around my general awkwardness. Our pictures came out wonderfully, and they were a pleasure to work with. I'll be recommending them everyone.

t to capture our wedding. The result was the most beautiful wedding album and pictures(thank you Marlene and John for always making me feel beautiful in your photos. Given wedding photographers follow you around your whole wedding day, they should be considerate and unobtrusive and they were just that. They captured every key moment and really put a lot of work into making the pictures look amazing. Now that we have a little addition to our family, I cant wait for John and Marlene to photograph us all again. Highly recommended!

ighting so everyone looks great in your pictures. They are also so kind and easy to talk to and they deeply care about making sure their clients are happy. I am SO happy with my wedding/engagement photos that I would HIGHLY recommend Marlene and John to anyone. Both my husband and I found them to be very professional, responsive and on-it. Again, I couldn't be happier with them and their photos – they are the best in class!

and helpful. They promptly responded to all of our email questions/worries and put us at ease. They did a great job making us feel at ease while capturing the moment. They can blend in with the wedding to get the best candid photos and when they find a great opportunity for a special shot then make it happen. They were always there when we asked for impromptu portraits with various combinations of friends and family. There were parts of the day, like getting ready, and after the ceremony photos with just me and my new husband that I felt like they really helped me feel in the moment. Thank you Marlene and John for creating such amazing pictures!

y. We have some great photos from various angles - especially during the ceremony when Marlene stayed with me and my Dad on the stairs while John stayed at the front getting shots of the nervous groom...You both blended in so well with all our guests - laughing, putting us at ease and even offering to remove the wrinkles from my husband's grand mother in photos of her which definitely made her day! We were lucky enough to have a very sunny late October wedding day, so after the group photos in front of the Barn, we were able to take a lovely walk around the gardens and the photos have beautifully captured the light and colors and also how much we enjoyed the day. We wouldn't have any hesitation recommending you and we're thrilled with the photos as a memory of our wedding day.

priorities for our wedding. We knew we wanted Marlene and John as our wedding photographers the minute we saw their portfolio. Their pictures are beautiful, and they are best at capturing all the best moments, emotions, and lighting.

ire process of hiring Marlene and John, everything worked out well. They were a pleasure to work with. It was well worth the money for the experience, and finished product we received. I highly recommend Koman Photography.

her. I didn't want the run-of-the-mill photos that most people tend to get, especially for our wedding. When I came across Koman Photography’s website I was blown away by their artistic take on their photography. Basically, I fell in love with their work. Browsing through the site I didn't think we would be able to afford them, BUT.... Their prices are INCREDIBLY reasonable. Much more affordable than other photographers in town! Their final product of our wedding was AMAZING! We love our photos!!! Words can't express how happy we are... Their photos truly represent us as a couple. And I must add as a final note- Marlene and John are WONDERFUL to work with!!! It was like they were guests at our wedding!

op and all the pictures we received were edited! They do extremely professional work and I would highly recommend them to anyone for wedding photography. Koman Photography is also very affordable, especially for the high quality work you get in return.

py. I love these guys. They made our day the most wonderful wedding ever. They are decently priced, and they worked with us and our budget as well. The photo album came out great, and they treated us like kings and queens on our special day. You will not regret having them as your photographer. Their skills, their experience, allowed us to have a guarantee and not worry about what will happen on our day. Thanks Marlene and John!

r photographer would be the single most important decision we would make as we planned our wedding. It was more important than clothes or flowers or even the venue, because none of that compared in value to the ability to relive our wedding memories when we're old and gray. I knew that the images from our wedding would be priceless reminders of all the emotion and moments of our day. What I wasn't prepared for was how awesome the experience would be. A friend recommended them and we quickly fell in love with their work. We did an engagement session before our wedding, which I highly recommend, not just because having engagement photos is awesome (we used prints of them as wedding décor and for our guestbook), but it gives you a great opportunity to get to know your photographer. By the time our wedding day rolled around, we were completely at ease in front of the camera, and Marlene and John blended right in with our people as they covered every angle of our wedding day. Although we always knew that hiring them would be the best wedding investment we made, it's a total delight now to watch and listen as everyone else realizes it, delightedly soaking up all the memories and emotions of our wedding through their artful documentation. They are incredibly talented at capturing moments and stories through their lenses, and we're thrilled that we can relive our wedding day through their beautiful photographs. We absolutely love our wedding photos, and so does everyone else! Koman Photography truly captured the spirit and story of our day in an artistic, photojournalistic way. We couldn't be happier!

perfectly captured that day. We totally relived all of those dreamy moments because they were able to capture them with such amazing skill, passion and love for people. We love them and couldn't have asked for better photographers, they truly are the best! We are so excited to get them printed and hang them around our house as well as share them with our families. If you're looking for a photographer, you can stop now-you won't find anyone more creative and professional than Koman Photography. They may start off as someone you hire but they will end up being your friends.

moments. I cannot think of a more important factor on the day of your wedding. 
Marlene and John noticeably put all their effort into our wedding day. Many of our guests commented on the number of photos they took and how they seemed to be everywhere. Marlene and John’s experience allows them to create unique photographs. They have endless ideas for scenes and backdrops. Marlene and John are incredibly talented, they are creative and they work hard. Compared to other high quality photographers in Los Angeles, Koman Photography’s prices are reasonable. There is no reason to look any further, Koman Photography is who you want to photograph your wedding!

away. We didn't need to look any further for photographers! They are really lovely people to work with, very friendly and professional. They weren’t put off when we told them we didn’t like having our photos taken, which is testimony to their endless patience and positivity. On the day they worked so hard, yet at the same time (in the nicest possible way!) we forgot they were there – which means we have amazing photos of ourselves and our guests that bring back all the emotions of the day, they captured the feelings so well. Our guests all commented how lovely Marlene and John were, and we do not hesitate in recommending them to anyone looking for outstanding photos of their special events.

ning process. Finding a married photography team is an excellent combination when dealing with and photographing a newly married couple! Not only do they understand how to emphasize their talent, but also they know how to effectively work together as a husband and wife. 
They are extremely talented and captured our wedding and engagement images better then we ever could have expected. We have been telling all of our friends and family about them, but the pictures really sell themselves. We could not be more pleased with our experience with Marlene and John and will recommend them to anyone and everyone.

uch a sweet couple and turkey enjoy photography. They make you feel so comfortable and carefree during the entire shoot. I cannot wait until my next bug life event to use them in!

s they took for us - they are unbelievably gorgeous. I couldn't have asked for better photographers - I recommend them to everyone I know!

our amazing day with such creative and beautiful photos. Every time I look at them I smile from ear to ear. We had so many good photos to choose from. They took so many photos in different locations at our venue which was wonderful. We had so many good ones! The packages are reasonable so don't let this fool you - Koman Photography does a phenomenal job.

it such a fun experience for all of us! I had told you at our initial meeting about how I was never happy with any photos of myself, but you changed all of that! When I saw the beautiful engagement shots that you had done, I knew the wedding shots would be fantastic. You designed our album to tell a beautiful story of an amazing day that we will cherish forever! Nothing was missing! Viewing the proofs online was great as well! It made sharing the memories and ordering enlargements so easy! Thank you again for everything, I will continue to recommend you to friends and family!

y talented. I was really happy to hear that they were available for our wedding so I immediately put a deposit down. They had done another friend's wedding the previous year and that couple had nothing but positive things to say about them as well. We did an engagement session and we had been a little nervous beforehand, but once we got started with John and Marlene’s directions the day was really fun and easy and it just confirmed for us that we had chosen the right photographers! The photos from the e-session and the wedding are so amazing and we've gotten so many compliments about them. They have such an artistic style and use so many interesting angles that make your photos look so incredible. Some of our favorite photos are some from when we had no idea they were even taking any shots, even one where we thought we were just walking from one point to another in the garden. I had also been worried about the ceremony, because we had been to a few weddings where the photographer was moving all around the front of the ceremony so that a lot of what I remember from those ceremonies was just all the movement and intrusiveness of the photographer. However, this was not the case at all with John and Marlene. They have such a great way of capturing the feeling of the day, the emotion, the love, and the happiness all in still photographs. Everything is just easy when working with them, where you don't have to worry about anything. After the e-session and the wedding we really feel more like friends with Marlene and John (than just a client/vendor relationship). We wholeheartedly recommend Koman Photography and have already referred a couple of newly engaged couples to them.

hem a few weeks before the wedding to go over everything and scout out the area for fun shots. They were so friendly and easy to talk to and get along with. On the day of our wedding, Marlene and John were both great and so easy to work with. They made everyone comfortable and the photos came out incredible. They really captured the happiness of the wedding and got great shots of every single person who attended. We are obsessed with our photos and can't thank them enough. I whole-heartedly recommend Koman Photography for your wedding or engagement photos!

ve you the flexibility of choosing exactly what you want. Perhaps there may be photography teams who charge slightly less but that is most likely because the quality of their work in no way compares to Koman Photography.

ery comfortable with them. They also had great pointers for our wedding timeline. I would definitely recommend them

sional photos like this before and they did such an amazing job guiding us and making us feel comfortable. Not to mention, our photos came out absolutely beautiful and I have received so many compliments! Highly recommend Koman Photography!

dding, and will be also doing a trash the dress shoot! They are so sincere and amazing at what they do! Affordable and with immense quality and care!
