About Malta Studio

Malta Studio

Head Photographer

A small studio in Union NJ with big plans! I have been a photographer for 6 years working as a freelancer. Like back in the day, learning on the field is the best way to learn everything about photography. Starting a Zola is the first step to branch from a freelancer to a business owner / photographer. I'm starting my own business for my baby, Xavier. Working at your wedding helps me be with my family longer.

I'll work with you financially, before your big day (engagement shoots), on your big day, and after ( photo editing). Not only do I provide the services needed to complete your vendor search but I also print your albums, cards, t-shirts and more so everything you need is in one place. This is a family business. I'm LGBTQ+ friendly.

  • The Camera Died and So Did My Patience

    •Verified review
    •Carol T.•Dec 15

    Our experience with Malta Studios after our wedding was extremely disappointing due to ongoing issues with communication and professionalism. Messages and calls routinely went unanswered, often being marked as read during normal business hours, yet we still had to follow up multiple times just to receive a response. This lack of consistency became frustrating and stressful. When our photos were finally delivered, we did receive every image taken, which we appreciated. However, there was no curation or quality control at all. Many photos included closed eyes, poor angles, or unusable shots, images that a professional is typically expected to filter out. Sorting through hundreds of unreviewed photos was overwhelming and far from the polished experience we anticipated. The video delivery was even more concerning. We granted additional time due to a personal injury, but weeks later the final product arrived with the wrong bride’s name, no aerial view which I mentioned numerous times, and most heartbreaking of all, our children’s speech was cut short. When we requested corrections, we were informed the rest of the speech could not be recovered because the camera died, meaning an irreplaceable moment was lost forever. Although we were eventually given the raw footage at no extra charge and our remaining balance, which was not due until we received the last footage, was voided and the corrected video was sent, the damage had already been done. The repeated lack of attention to detail overshadowed any attempts to make things right, and I say weak attempts because we extended his delivery time and, although I specifically told him we would not be calling to follow up like every other time, my husband still had to reach out at 6 PM when we had heard nothing, just to confirm he would actually deliver what was promised. Adding to our frustration was the vendor’s reaction to the review submitted by our wedding coordinator. She wrote it under her own name after witnessing the stress and frustration this process caused me. Instead of responding professionally, he insinuated that I had written the review using another person’s name and even called me childish. He also included both my name and my husband’s name in his response, surprisingly getting my name correct but not my husband’s. He has since gone back and edited his response to appear more polished yet still chose to leave false information claiming we owe him payment for three additional hours of work. Technically, if anyone is owed anything here, it is us, because he will never be able to provide the full footage of our children’s speech, which is exactly what he was paid to capture. This behavior was inappropriate, unprofessional, and further validated the communication issues and lack of professionalism we experienced from the start. The ongoing communication problems, preventable mistakes, lack of accountability, and now unprofessional public behavior caused unnecessary stress during a time that should have been joyful. Couples deserve reliability, care, and respect when trusting a vendor with memories that cannot be recreated. Unfortunately, we did not receive that, and we cannot recommend this vendor.

    Starting from the meeting they sounded like they knew what they were doing, they asked practically all the questions and even questions I should have brought up with the venue. What sold me was the payment plan. They didn't have to but they gave me a payment plan but when I was switching between jobs they didn't charge me any late fees and even changed the plan to make sure I took care of the family first by lowering the monthly payments. The big day: They came an hour early, but we were 30 minutes behind. They knew how to improvise. They were helpful all the way through. After big day: They said if it's not to busy they can get everything done in about 2 months but I usually just go by the contract. But ya they got everything done within a proper timeline. Pictures and video looks great and now I asked for a wedding album and thank you cards.

    We hired Malta Studio for our wedding photography and videography, and we couldn’t be happier. They made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process, and on our wedding day, they captured everything. They definitely have a sense of hummer!! They got along great with our family and guests, which made everyone feel at ease in front of the camera. Thank you Davide and Malta Studio.

    Malta Studio (Davide) was an absolute pleasure to work with for our wedding photography. From the very beginning, he was extremely communicative and prompt in responding to our inquiries. On the day of the wedding, he arrived on time and immediately put us at ease with his friendly and warm demeanor. Throughout the event, he was very invested in capturing as many high-quality photos as possible, and we felt comfortable the entire time. In addition to their excellent photography skills, they also helped us set up the catering, going above and beyond their duties. We are thrilled with the results and can't wait to see the final photos. Very friendly and kind!
