    Made our Wedding Day INCREDIBLE!

    I have nothing but incredible comments to say for this husband and wife pair. They were so professional, so kind, so caring, and have a true appreciation for their art. They truly cared that we had an incredible time while taking photos, made sure we were comfortable with wherever we went, and took absolutely beautiful photos. This duo knew the venue like the back of their hand. This made us feel completely at ease and went with their direction on every location and shot at our outdoor wedding (something that is not easy). Their style is so romantic, dreamy, and picture perfect! Their eye for this art is so appreciated and we CANNOT wait to see the rest of our beautiful photos from our perfect day. Oh, and hire them for BOTH photography/videography! I have heard horror stories about the videography getting in all of the photos or vice versa. This was never a worry I had with this couple as their chemistry made their flow/working around each other so perfect. I could not recommend Koman's more!!

    I had Koman for my wedding photographer back in May. They were very easy to work with and the instructions they gave us were really easy to follow. My husband was very shy in front of camera; however, Marlene and John made him looked very happy and natural in all of the photos we received. Koman Photography captured both my childhood dream and the spirit I've desired for my husband and I, and all my lovely guests. Their frames mesmerized me and left me speechless. Defintly worth every penny and recommend to all couples that are looking for good photographer.

    After seeing John and Marlene's work, we knew that they were the best out there, and we did not waste anytime to go knocking on their door. They are very good at what they do, very 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 the wedding photos! Thank you so much John and Marlene, you guys are amazing! - Melogie and Ryan

    Marlene and John are incredible! I fell in love with their pictures online and then fell in love with them and their photography!!! They did an amazing engagement session for my husband and I. It gave us an opportunity to practice in front of the camera. The photos were amazing! They made us feel so comfortable! It was so much fun being in front of the camera on the wedding day. They are incredibly friendly, professional and talented. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone in the future!!!

    John and Marlene at Koman Photography are great at what they do! We used them for our engagement session and our wedding and the pictures from both came out amazing. We are so happy with the photos they took and cannot wait to receive the album they are putting together for us.

    Marlene and John are the DREAM TEAM. Booking them was one of the best decisions we've ever made. First, our engagement photo session was flawless. They are artists and so talented 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!

    LOOK NO FURTHER. That's right, you have just found the most amazing wedding photographers EVER. I must admit, I am not so easy to please & I was more than impressed with the Komans. 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.

    I cannot say enough GREAT things about the Komans!!! As soon as we had found their site and saw their beautiful photos, we knew we just HAD to use them!!! We were unable to meet Marlene and John before our big day since we were planning our wedding from across the country, but as soon as we had met them it felt like they were old friends to us. They both made us feel so comfortable on a day that can be so busy and nerve-wrecking. They gave us so much direction that we didn't have to worry about anything except having fun!!! Because our wedding was so small and intimate, we were able to spend a ton of time taking photos and some of our most memorable moments were hanging out with them. I also love that Marlene and John will show you the photos as they are taking them, so you know exactly what you look like...I am not kidding when I say that it looks like their photos have already been edited when shown on the "preview" screen. These two are true artists!!!! Not only are Marlene and John talented and professional but they are so kindhearted and funny as well. We will recommend them again and again!!! These two are the ABSOLUTE BEST!!!!!!

    The Komans were wonderful to work with. Their excitement for marriage and love is definitely seen through their photography. They capture moments both big and small. All around fantastic photographers to work with!

    We decided to hire John and Marlene from Koman Photography based on photos we saw online of another wedding they had shot at our venue. Reviewing their pictures I was very impressed with the photo quality - the one thing that really popped out to me was their ability to use outdoor light to make the photos look absolutely amazing! From our initial meeting and throughout the whole process John and Marlene were very professional! Not only did they take amazing pictures, they guided us every step of the way during the process so we were prepared. I highly recommend getting the package that includes the engagement session, photo book, wedding and wedding album. We used a lot of photos from our engagement session for invitations, programs, signs, etc. If you want they will make your photobook into a guestbook style (which is what we did - it was perfect for our wedding!). We got our pictures back very fast and they were edited beautifully. If you are curious about their work definitely check out their website and see the amazing quality of work for yourself. You won't be disappointed!!!

    Marlene and John are AMAZING in EVERY aspect of photography! First of all, they are very professional, punctual and friendly. We took our engagement pictures AND wedding pictures with them. We included our 1 1/2 year old in our engagement pictures. Marlene and John were so patient and so understanding and they had no problem taking the extra step to go out of their way to make sure we got the shots we wanted. They are so good at communicating with us and making sure they find out any special shots we wanted, and checking out the perfect location together. My pictures came out better than i could have imagined! they are SO INCREDIBLY TALENTED specially working together, they have a connection that makes the whole processor so smooth. I always get compliments on our engagement pictures and wedding pictures. They captured all the best and most important moments of our special day! I know for a fact I will be only using them for ANY other occasion! Thank you Marlene and John for everything! you guys are truly the best!!!!

    Marlene and John are truly wonderful! We had them for our engagement and wedding pictures last May. They are an amazing couple and extremely talented. Our pictures turned out stunning 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!

    We found Marlene and John on this Web Site. And My wife fell in love with their photos.
    Once we met them, we found them very comfortable and considering. And they even worked out for us to meet with our budget.
    On the wedding day, it all happened really fast, yet I remember, of course, they spent as much time to take photos of us as it allowed before the wedding and in between the wedding and reception.
    They are very hard workers and very talented. Both of them captures very precious moments.
    After the wedding, we had to wait for the special album. It came out exactly as we requested on the beautiful paper, cover and case! They even gave us a promotional mini album to see if it becomes handy to share the photos.
    Thank you so much. we are very satisfied.
    Highly recommended!!

    My husband and I were very happy with the service that the Koman's provided! We are from Oklahoma, but had the wedding in California, so we met with them pretty early into the engagement 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.

    First off, John and Marlene are amazing! We had them for our engagement shoot and our wedding this past June! From the start they really take their time to get to know you on a more personal level so that you feel very comfortable when taking pictures with them. All of our pictures look so natural and not fake or set up poses. They give you ideas for pictures, but all you to blend in your own natural style. We love all of our pictures and the albums are beyond beautiful. Friends of ours got married a year ago and just barely received all of their photos and albums this week! We have been married only 2 months and have everything already! They are extremely nice and professional and never once did I feel they were in the way or intruded on our big day. You can really tell this is what they love to do. Once our pictures went out I was bombarded by friends and family asking for their contact information to book them for future photo shoots of their own. John and Marlene will be our family photographers for years to come! Thank you for capturing our day just as we remember it to be!

    The wedding pictures turned out amazing, and our album is unreal. Koman Photography did an absolutely phenomenal job with our photos. Everything turned out perfect. Through the entire 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.

    Energetic. Fun. Spunky. Innovative. Awesome! These are just a few of the words that describe Koman Photography! I could go on but I think you would prefer I get to the point.

If you are seeking a photographer who is constantly looking for new and fabulous ways to capture your moments, after all, we did name their table at our wedding reception "Moment Catchers," you have found them right here! They really know how to blend into the background and put you at ease. There are those out there who enjoy having their picture taken and then there are the rest of us. These guys are truly patient and enthusiastic about YOU. They take the time to learn about who you are and what makes you, well, you. In doing so, they are able to see those moments you may have not even realized and capture them for you. If you are thinking about contacting Koman Photography, do it. Word is spreading and they are worth every syllable!

    We don't even know how to express our overwhelming gratitude for what John and Marlene did for us, the pictures are beyond amazing! So many of them made us tear up because they so 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.

    Koman Photography photographed a friend's wedding a couple of years ago, and my husband and I liked their work so much that we knew we wanted them for our own wedding.

Marlene and 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.

    Koman Photography is the way to go. The top three things I would say is: they are family friendly, patient, and produce stunning photos. One of the last things I wanted to worry about was how the experience and how actual pictures would turn out. Thanks to Marlene and John, I was confident things would go smoothly and they did. As a long-term customer who's seen their work; it's amazing.

    I did extensive research to find a wedding photographer. What struck me about Koman Photography’s portfolio was that their photographs repeatedly captured the feeling of beautiful 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!
