Marlon was such a joy to work with! Starting with initial outreach and communication, during the actual 4 hour elopement/family photoshoot session, and of course afterwards in communication & delivery. He made us all feel at ease, yet provided enough creative direction to guide us to have fun and create great moments. I would definitely recommend Marlon if you are looking for someone who is flexible, easy to work with, and professional.

Marlon was the best!! He met us for an engagement shoot for my fiancee and our puppy in Oakland. He picked the perfect locations to capture our shots, was so good at directing us and was a pleasure to work with.
He was beyond professional, prompt, communicative and delivered outstanding work.
We are planning on hiring Marlon to shoot our wedding already. I would recommend him in a heartbeat.
If you are looking for great documentary style photography work, Marlon is your man. THANK YOU MARLON!
