Kind Words
Maloos is a very talented photographer and a lovely person. Her thoughtfulness throughout the day will always stick with me. She is a true artist and a master of her work. We loved the freedom that we had during our photo shoot. We could laugh, run, dance and she took the best shots while we were enjoying our time together.

we had a photoshoot with Maloos, and the experience was just top notch!We are generally shy, but in front of Maloos’ camera, I was just able to relax and be the best of myself! The photos turned out to be the best photos that we’ve ever taken. She took our opinions and personal style into consideration and so the photos turned out very natural and authentic!

Maloos was great!! It was our first ever photo shoot together as a couple. Maloos was super friendly and did a great job of directing us while also allowing for many natural moments to occur. The way she uses light makes her photos look like they’re from fairytale books! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer!

FAQ
Delivering your images quickly is a priority. You’ll typically receive your high-resolution engagement photos via an online gallery within 2–3 weeks — while the excitement of the session is still fresh!
6. How long is the turnaround time for receiving the images?
I’m happy to travel! Locations within 25 miles of Evanston are included at no extra cost. For anything farther, I charge a $50 travel fee for every additional 10 miles. Let me know where you'd like to shoot, and we’ll plan it together.
5. How far would you drive for an engagement session?
You can expect an average of 50–70 edited images from your engagement session, depending on the length and location of your shoot.
4. How many photos will we receive?
It’s best to schedule your engagement session soon after getting engaged. This gives you plenty of time to use the photos for save-the-dates, invitations, or your wedding website.
3. When should we book the engagement session?
I recommend booking 2–4 weeks in advance, especially in the summer when wedding season is in full swing. That said, feel free to reach out anytime — I’m always happy to check last-minute availability.
2. How far in advance should we book you?
I specialize in a seamless blend of documentary and fine art photography, capturing authentic moments with a timeless touch. My goal is to beautifully showcase the unique bond and love story you share during your engagement session.
