“Had our family photos taken today by a wonderful family friend, Marlena Aakjar, who also happens to be a type 1 diabetic herself and $50 of her photography session today was donated towards JDRF. A wonderful cause that as most of you know by now is near and dear to our hearts. Thank you so much Photos by Marlena. Can't wait to see how the rest turned out. You always capture our family perfectly.”

“Marlena's been my photographer since my engagement in 2014. She captured the most heartfelt moments, including my wedding and both my babies as newborns! I love how she captures my kids personalities in her pictures!”

“Everywhere in town when there is an event going on, I see this young lady who's wonderful and professional with a great personality taking photos. She is so dedicated to the town and to her clients. I recently had fall photos taken with her and it was very fun and Marlena Aakjar made us feel so comfortable. We all know, that's the key to a great photo shoot! When Andy and I get married, you will be our photographer! P.S. It's going to be in Hawaii, pack your bags!”

“We just had our second family photo session shot by Marlena. She is incredibly patient with children, and captures their personalities perfectly (and her trusty sidekick knows how to make them laugh!). She absolutely has a great eye in photography. We can't wait to have more pictures done in the future.”
