Bob and his team are an outstanding group of people. It was an incredible pleasure to work with them. Bob is the sweetest and did an awesome job providing any and all information I needed in our first meeting. I wasnt quite sure what questions to ask and he was so helpful! Our engagement shoot went perfectly, even after weather issues Bob was very accomodating. The pictures were breath taking!!! Thelma was a pleasure to work with as well, she did a perfect job on communicating and following up with me. Day of the wedding, Bob and his team were all there with perfect timing. It was so much fun interacting with them and brought me so much joy. Bob is truly a master of his craft and we consider ourselves extremely lucky to have the opportunity to work with him. It was easy and stress free to trust him with our photopgraphy and videopgraphy and I continue to be blown away with every picture we receive. Bob and his team are a rare find, his work is miles ahead of the rest. WORTH EVERY SINGLE PENNY!!! We cant thank Bob and his team enough for the unparalleled work and experince they provided. -

We love our wedding photos! Bob was incredibly professional and is a seasoned pro! The photography team made sure to get every photo we requested and many, many more. They streamlined the process so both planning for the wedding, and taking photos the day-of, were easy and stress-free! There are both great stills and action-shots from the dance floor! With pricing and package options that can meet every budget/wedding vision, we highly recommend Bob Hoffman Photography!Bob Hoffman Photography & Video's reply:

Bob is truly amazing!! Photography was very important to us, so we researched extensively and we're so grateful we found Bob. He did both our engagement session and wedding, which was really spectacular as we were able to get a practice run in and learn how to pose. All of the photos turned out beautifully, and Bob was such a professional and calming presence at the wedding. I truly think that Bob was the best decision that we made throughout our entire wedding planning process!!!!! -

Amazing Amazing!
This team is FANTASTIC. We used them for our engagement photos and wedding photos and all I can say is wow. We were so impressed with the photos from the engagement shoot that we last min decided to also book videography. (do it! 100% worth the money, it's the one thing we always refer back to)
Natalie and Bob are so personable and friendly and during the wedding we didn't even notice them once the ceremony was in place. They were on time and had everything in control the whole time. If you are looking for the best of the best this is it. Thank you all for making our wedding even more special and for capturing all of the amazing moments -

Best day ever!
We were married in June and were lucky enough to have Bob as our photographer. When it was time for the photos of the wedding party and family, he and Tara were great! They posed us to make us look amazing and take some very flattering photos! Very friendly and helpful! Photos during the reception were so fun. We had the Photo Booth and it was so wonderful! When the wedding was winding down, Bob took some unbelievable photos of my husband and I. We have some great memories of that day with some AWESOME photos to remind us of our special day. I cannot recommend Bob enough! -

David and I are extremely happy with Bob Hoffman and team . They delivered exactly what we discussed and desired for our very special day and they delivered. There is no better way to immortalize such a spectacular day full of entertainment as we did , the best part is looking back as often as we like and sparing no moment recorded as Bob Hoffman and team did . We relive it all the time thanks to the great work they did with the video and photos. I cannot express how professional and experienced the team is . I didn’t worry before during and after thanks to their capacity and flexibility to understand your needs.Bob Hoffman Photography & Video's reply:

Jocelyn Sent on 05/17/2023Professional eye for capturing all the love!!!
We are very happy with the work of Bob and his team! We started our journey with BH Photography back in 2017 when they took our engagement pictures at Balboa Park. We originally had our wedding planned for December of that year, but we had some setbacks and had to postpone. Little did we know that the postponement would be stretched out (after covid and having two babies) until 2023. When we had finally set a date, they were very receptive and and honored our deposits.
We love how they captured the special moments with our two older kids from our previous relationships and our two younger babies.
We highly recommend them for capturing your special day! -

Attentive, fun, easy going!
I cannot recommend this amazing company enough! They were with us for almost the entire day, and made it so much fun and stress free! They captured every moment we asked for, plus some of their own ideas. The most amazing part was that they put up with all of our shenanigans all day long, never questioning anything we wanted to do. They went with the flow, but kept us on track to be sure to have the best day possible. We will cherish the memories they've captured for us forever! If I could give more than 5 stars I would! -

We had the BEST experience with Bob as our photographer for both our engagement photos and wedding. He was an absolute pleasure to work with, so kind, flexible, and thoughtful. He ensured we got a variety of shots, captured all our special moments, and beautiful backdrops. Our pictures are wonderful and I could not be more thrilled with Bob Hoffman Photography. -

Lisa Sent on 09/16/2022Excellent in every way
Bob and his office staff had excellent communication leading up to our wedding day. Bob had several helpful phone discussions to help with planning and answering our questions and met with us the week before at the venue site to walk through photo locations and timelines. Bob had great suggestions of where to take our group shots. On the day of, he and his assistant photographer were very flexible and helpful when, in spite of all our planning, the morning got off schedule and first look was late. With their guidance, we were still able to get all the shots we wanted and get the timeline back on track. Bob was great to work with and we absolutely love all of our wedding photos!!! -

Amaya F. Sent on 08/12/2022Best Photography Team Ever!
I can't say enough about Bob and his lovely team! We met Bob at the Bridal Bazaar in May 2021 and we immediately fell in love with the pictures he had displayed at his booth. Adding to that, with his major experience we knew we would be in great hands on our special day! When it came to our wedding day, Bob showed up early and we even (unexpectedly) had a second photographer, which made it so much easier to capture our huge photo list. Thelma was super awesome and so informative. She answered all the questions I had via email and made me feel relaxed and ready to take pictures. I hope Bob never retires, because he is super great at what he does!! -

Angelia O. Sent on 10/04/2022Complete Package and Wonderful Team
My husband and I were so excited to have Bob’s team capture our wedding event. My parents had them as photographers and videographers at their wedding as well as my grandparents’ golden anniversary. At our initial meeting with Bob and Thelma, they showed us samples of the work that the photographer assigned to us had done, took the time to get to know us, and cater to what we were looking for. Throughout the planning process, Thelma always kept an open communication with us through email.
We had the pleasure of having Darryn as our photographer for our engagement session and our wedding day. We were unsure of how to pose, but he gave us clear and easy to follow directions while making us feel at ease. Our ceremony took place at our family’s church and the reception at the Japanese Friendship Garden. On our wedding day we had Monika as the second photographer, Alberto and Raphe for the videographers, and Andi for managing the photo booth. They were all a joy to work with, very clear with directions and not missing details that would affect their shots. They had wonderful suggestions for shots they wanted to capture that we did not think of. All were kind to our guests with their sudden photo requests and still able to fulfill our shot list as well. Everyone enjoyed the photo booth and when they had trouble thinking of poses he gave them fun ideas.
The entirety of the team was very kind and fun to work with. Our wedding day was beautifully eternalized while keeping the solemnity of the ceremony and capturing how much fun everyone was having at the reception. We are so very happy and honored to have them for our event and hope to be able to work with them again for future big events! -

I just want to start by saying thank you to Bob and Thelma for being a part of our special day. They corresponded with us before the wedding and made sure they understood what we wanted and even asked us about those must-have shots that with everything that was going on we were not even thinking about. We got everything we wanted and so much more and our guests are loving the candids as well. If you are looking for a photographer look no further Bob is your dude. -
