Testimonials
Madeline began her interest in flamenco taking classes and progressed to taking photos of performances and classes. She has an amazing keen eye for the elements necessary to take gorgeous photography of live dance action, something that is rare and wonderful in a photographer. She is an artist!

We’ve worked with Madeline Oaklander for two live dance and acrobatic performances and have been thrilled with the photos. She has an incredible ability to capture the beauty, movement, and artistry of dance, even in fast-paced performance settings. Madeline is professional, easy to work with, and delivers stunning images. I highly recommend her for performance, event, and dance photography.

Madeline is passionate about her work and always puts forth her best effort to ensure her clients are satisfied. She is also an excellent communicator who creates a comfortable and relaxed environment throughout the process. I hired Madeline to photograph my live concert and archival photographs. I was truly impressed by the care, and dedication she brought to the project.

I’ve been an actor for 50 some years, on stage, television, and film. For the past 25 years i’ve been making films, and in all that time you’re dealing with photographers of all different levels and sorts to either shoot the movies, stills or publicity, for whatever venture you were involved in, and I have to say that with Madeline, it was just top-of-the-line working with her. She knew what she wanted. She was open to the possibilities that could happen and when she had what she wanted, she was done. She also has a great eye for composition. Almost all the great ‘shooters’ I’ve ever worked with, have these attributes in common. Understanding what they want, being open to what happens in the moment and knowing when they have it. She was a delight to work with and I would refer her to anybody looking for her Talent.
