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!

FAQ
1. What’s your photography style?
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 as a couple during the meaningful time we spend together in your engagement session.
2. How far in advance should we book you?
I recommend booking 2-4 weeks in advance, especially in the summer when I am busy with weddings. However, feel free to reach out for last-minute availability.
3. When should we book the engagement session?
It’s best to schedule your engagement session as soon as possible after you get engaged. The sooner, the better! This ensures you’ll have plenty of time to use the images for your save-the-dates, invitations, or even your wedding website.
4. How many photos will we receive?
you can generally expect an average of 50-70 images for your engagement session.
6. How long is the turnaround time for receiving the images?
Delivering your images quickly is an essential part of the experience! I strive to share them with you as soon as possible so the joy and excitement of your session are still fresh in your mind. Typically, you can expect to receive your high-resolution images via an online gallery within 2-3 weeks after the session.
5. How far would you drive for an engagement session?
I’m happy to travel for engagement sessions! Locations within a 25-mile radius of my base (Evanston) are included at no additional cost. For distances beyond that, I charge a $50 travel fee for every additional 10 miles. Let me know your desired location, and we can plan accordingly!
