    Joffoto was one of the best parts of our wedding!

    I truly mean it when I saw that having Joff as our photographer turned out to be one of the best parts of our wedding and we are SO grateful for him. From the first contact we made with him, to the pre-wedding discussions, to the actual wedding day, to receiving our finished photos, every interaction was just so positive. He was so easy to work with, truly and genuinely cared about making our day as special and perfect as possible, really gave us that personal touch and attention. He was flexible with any changes we wanted/needed to make, even on the day of, but was also professional and knowledgeable enough to know when/how to lead us to get the best pics and poses. We had a wedding at a small church in the middle of farm land, he got the perfect lighting, great with both the indoor and outdoor shots. Just really can't recommend him enough as a professional photographer, I promise you'll be so grateful!

    BEST photographer!

    BEST photographer out there! I am SO happy with our decision to hire Jof as our photographer. He did an amazing job with our engagement shoot and the sneak peeks of our wedding are fabulous so far. We can't wait to see the full gallery! He does a great job directing you into poses and makes you feel comfortable and not awkward at all. He also captures your vision perfectly (i had a few specific shoots I wanted). He is very organized and kept us on schedule on the wedding day. He's also GREAT with dogs and even brought a bag of treats to the engagement shoot and wedding day! I could go on and on about how great Jof is!

    Highly recommended!

    Jof is an incredible photographer. My sister used to be in the wedding business, and when I told her we were thinking about hiring Jof, she said "OMG YOU HAVE TO DO IT; HE IS THE BEST." And we are so glad that we did! Jof was amazing throughout the whole process. He was flexible with us when we scheduled our engagement session; it was raining so we decided to opt for a different day. He also gave us a questionnaire to fill out before the wedding to make sure we were all on the same page. Jof also put together a timeline to help make sure we stayed on schedule the day-of and captured all of the wedding pictures we wanted. On the day-of our wedding, Jof and his assistant arrived at the venue right on time and got straight to work. They were amazing and so attentive. We got ALL of the pictures we wanted. They were so sweet - they also made sure we were comfortable the whole day - including taking breaks when needed. I so appreciated their flexibility when we had to shift some of the timeline around. We got the sneak peeks less than 24 hours after our wedding day and the full album looked spectacular. Bottom line: BEST WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER EVER.

    Best Photographer in DMV

    As a wedding planner, I have had the pleasure of collaborating with various photographers, but my experience with JOFFOTO, owned by Jof, has been truly exceptional. Jof and I have worked together on numerous weddings. He demonstrates a remarkable understanding of the wedding industry and the importance of capturing those fleeting moments that make each event unique.

    Jof's professionalism is evident in every interaction. He is punctual, well-prepared, and has a calming presence that puts both the couple and their guests at ease. I receive nothing but positive feedback from my clients who have worked with him.

    I recommend JOFFOTO for any couple looking to capture their wedding day in a beautiful and authentic way. Jof is not just a photographer; he is an artist who truly cares about his clients and their love stories. I look forward to working with him on many more weddings in the future!

    Gorgeous Photos from Jof!

    We couldn't be happier with our decision to hire Joff as our wedding photographer. From our engagement photo sessions to the big day itself, Joff was absolutely phenomenal!

    What truly set Joff apart was how he made us feel at ease during every photo session. Neither of us is particularly comfortable in front of the camera, but Joff's friendly and calming presence helped us relax and enjoy the experience. He was incredibly patient, guiding us through different poses with ease and making sure we felt comfortable and natural.

    He took the time to understand exactly what we wanted, and his creativity in choosing beautiful locations made our photos truly unique and stunning. Every spot he selected added a special touch to our memories, and his eye for detail was impeccable.

    The end result? Absolutely stunning photos that perfectly captured the essence of our love and joy. Joff's talent and dedication are evident in every shot. We now have a collection of beautiful memories that we will cherish forever.

    If you're looking for a photographer who is not only talented but also a pleasure to work with, Joff is the one.

    excellent service

    I highly recommend Jof for wedding photography. I found him from the preferred vendor list at my venue. Since he regularly works there, he knew all the best photo spots and how to take advantage of the lighting.

    Communication with Jof was excellent – he responded to messages very quickly and answered all my questions clearly.

    Leading up to the wedding, he was extremely organized in collecting the information he needed to prepare. He sent a helpful questionnaire to make sure we covered all details.

    On the wedding day, Jof arrived early with a friendly yet professional demeanor that put me at ease. Despite the rain, he captured gorgeous, romantic photos that felt unique to us. He was also great at working with our diverse cultural traditions.

    I'm thrilled with how my photos turned out – Jof skillfully told the emotional story of our wedding day. His photographic talents combined with his friendly, professional manner made him a joy to work with. I enthusiastically recommend Jof to any engaged couple looking for a talented wedding photographer.

    Amazing photoshoot experience

    My husband and I got married during the pandemic and moved to Maryland right after so we’ve had a crazy few years. We’re finally settled and decided to take wedding photos in DC. I found Jof and he is absolutely amazing. He knew how to capture the moment and directed us so clearly. My husband and I are super awkward posers but Jof really helped us feel comfortable and we had a great time. The time went by so fast and the lighting in the photos are absolutely beautiful. Jof is soo personable and has amazing communication, he was determined to make sure we had the best time possible. The day we took our photos I had a hair malfunction but he was able to beautifully cover it up and we didn’t even notice it in the pictures! We were able to tell how passionate he is about his photography and it really made us feel like we were in good hands. We will be definitely coming back for mini photo shoots!

    Joffoto - Highly Recommend

    Joffoto is the best! I love the romantic style Jof brings to his photos. He is also great at the day of event getting all the shots we wanted. Very professional and very personable. We were so happy with Joffoto for my older son's wedding that we hired him for our second son's wedding and our company's anniversary party! They are great for corporate events too!

    Jof is amazing!

    We just had our engagement shoot with Jof and he did a terrific job. It was so difficult to pick just one photo to use for our save the dates! He was kind, professional and turned our pictures around in just a couple of hours! We can't wait to see the magic he creates at the wedding!

    Your Search is Over!!

    We were absolutely thrilled with our choice of Joffoto to capture our special day!! Our wedding photos are beyond what we could have hoped for. From the moment we met, they exuded positivity and professionalism. They went above and beyond to make sure every perfect moment was immortalized. He even helped with posing and outfit ideas! The photos were not just pictures; they were pieces of art. The editing was simply breathtaking, enhancing the beauty of the day.

    What truly stood out was their extremely fast communication. Any question or concern we had was addressed promptly, making the whole process seamless. On the wedding day, they brought such positive vibes, making everyone feel at ease. It felt like having a dear friend capturing our day.

    If you're searching for a wedding photographer who not only captures moments but also adds magic to them, look no further than Jof. We can't thank them enough for making our day even more special!! Thank you, Jof!!

    Wedding Day Perfection!

    Married July 29th 2023 - An absolutely magical day from start to finish! Jof was an incredible member of my wedding day team. From our early start at 8:30 AM to my second ceremony at 4:30 PM (yes, we had 2 ceremonies), and through the start of our dance party (like 9 PM) - Jof was top notch! I have worked with Jof as a planner, and I knew from day 1 that I wanted him on my vendor team. Our photos from the engagement shoot and the teasers from wedding day are incredible. I can't thank you enough, Jof! I look forward to working with you soon for another bride's special day - but know, you will forever be MY wedding photographer! P.S. Our impromptu bridal suite shoot between ceremonies was one of my most favorite things - I have never felt more beautiful.

    Jof’s work is amazing!

    We worked with Jof for our engagement and wedding photos. He did such an amazing job capturing all the details and making us feel comfortable in front of the camera. His photos are always beautiful and especially at our wedding, captured moments that we wouldn’t have remembered otherwise. Jof is easy to talk to, takes time to understand your vision, and always goes the extra mile to make sure we are happy with our photos. If will 100% work with Jof again for any future photos for our family.

    Truly Fantastic, Highly Recommended

    Jof and his team did an amazing job with our wedding... He is very easy to work with, has great attention to detail, is creative, responsive, always has a positive attitude, and has a real talent working with light. He took fantastic photos of our somewhat-complicated cultural fusion wedding with a lot of moving parts, getting great shots but always being unobtrusive. He's a joy to work with, we couldn't have been happier with his services.

    Absolutely Amazing!

    When I first saw Jof’s work, I knew he was the photographer I wanted for our wedding. I am thrilled to say, although not surprised, that my expectations were more than exceeded. The photos Jof took were absolutely exquisite- he both “captured our joy” and the beauty of the day. We look natural and relaxed, and the lighting is beautiful. Plus, Jof has the most fun personality to make sure everyone is having a good time- this is obviously very important when choosing a photographer since they are with you for so much of the day! He is great at thinking on his feet, especially when the weather was being questionable- he truly makes the best out of any situation! I cannot recommend Jof enough!

    Simply the BEST

    Jof was such a joy to work with. We knew right away that he would be our wedding photographer from our first introduction Facetime with him as he immediately tried to get to know us and lay out his style while considering our dream wedding photo style as well. From start to finish of the wedding day, he was punctual, attentive, and worked his hardest to get the most incredible shots. We now have HUNDREDS of gorgeous photos that came in a very timely manner after the wedding -- my guests and family can't stop complementing them. The photographer is the person you spend the most time with on your wedding day, so I would HIGHLY recommend spending your best day with Jof and his crew! xoxo

    Beautiful photos with so much fun!!

    We've never met a more energetic and talented photographer. You can see and feel how much Jof loves what he does and how focused he is. He has a vision and was able to guide us in the photo-taking sessions without over staging it. He listens and truly gets to you know as a couple so that he can further ensure capturing and building the perfect photos for your big day. His energy is contagious and feeds into the naturalness between the couple and fun of the photo session. It's almost like he thrives from the love between the couples that he photographs. His energy and his enthusiasm bring out the naturalness of the couple. We never found it awkward thanks to Jof's style.

    Jof is also incredibly responses, efficient, and so on top of everything. He had so many recommendations that he connected me for hair and make-up and videographers, etc.. which helped tremendously because I wasn't even sure of where to start! He is very responsive and his photos are beautiful. he knows how to bring the best out of people -- especially when it's time for a photo. Thank you, JOF!

    breath of fresh air !!

    My fiance and I feel incredibly luck to have found Jof! WE met him at the crack of dawn to catch the sunrise and have an empty background in a popular area. He was so knowledgeable of the area, and made sure we got permits in time to take the photos in DC. He was in the best of spirits, brings the best energy, and turned the morning into so much fun! My fiance was not thrilled to be doing an engagement shoot (most men arent!) and by the end of it he was asking to do another with Jof. He truly responded to the type of photo we liked and did not push us to do poses/styles we don't. We got sample pics that day and the full deck in such quick turn around! His creativity and photo style (so light and airy) made our day look like a dream- and it truly was! you won't regret hiring Jof!

    Best Wedding Photography Experience!!

    Jof is the designated photographer at Raspberry Plains, which was where my wife and I had our wedding. We originally had a different photographer but decided to make a last minute adjustment and hired Jof and have zero regrets with our decision! I cannot imagine how our wedding would have turned out without Jof and his staff! Having him as our photographer made our wedding experience so much fun and made every process feel so natural! From the moment we met him until the end of our contract session, Jof was very professional yet so friendly to the point where we still keep in touch through social media! Best of all, when we received his sneak peek photos we were already in love and could not wait until we received the rest of the photos! When we received the remainder of our album, we were very impressed how he had organized all the pictures throughout the whole event! He is highly recommended because he will not disappoint with your experience and his wonderful work! Thank you so much Jof! We are excited to see you in the near future for all my friend's weddings coming ahead! =)

    Utter perfection

    I cannot describe how impressed we are in Jof and his work. He is the in-house photographer for Raspberry Plain Manor, and we are so lucky they discovered him before another venue did! We booked an engagement session with him and he suggested a beautiful and private winery for our shoot. It was freezing during our sunrise session, but Jof offered breaks to warm up and little jokes to make us laugh through our teeth chatters. The results were magnificent and we still can't stop sharing them on social media. Our wedding day quickly approached and Jof was on top of it with a questionnaire asking for any small details we wanted to capture as well as formal family shots and silly ones too. On the big day, Jof was early and eager to get going with the detail photos as I requested. We got every photo we wanted (and more!) and he stuck to a timeline that helped keep the bridal party in line. Just days later, Jof sent us 56 sneak peak photos that we are over the moon about, and subsequently sent us 1211 final photos of our perfect day. We had SUCH a hard time choosing what to put in our photo album and share on social media!! The natural lighting that he is so gifted at using is so flattering and ethereal. Jof, thank you for making our day timeless and memorable, and for your beautiful work!

    Thank you, joffoto!

    The entire process- from intro call, to engagement shoot, to wedding day- was perfect. It was perfect because Jof clearly cares SO much about his art and documenting every detail of the day. Jof is so friendly and personable, he instantly made us and our family and friends feel so at ease and comfortable- you can see it in the photos. I don't even know how he and his team did it - but every single shot I imagined (both on and off our shotlist) was captured, and captured beautifully. Every emotion and memory is there- frozen in time. I'm still in awe at how incredible our engagement and wedding photos turned out- it's impossible to pick favorites! I hope we have the opportunity to work with Jof again soon :)

    I have not stopped getting compliments on our wedding photos. I'm a perfectionist and not always the easiest to please. Jof was amazing and his pictures are super high quality. Best vendor decision we made.

    Jof is an AMAZING photographer. My sister-in-law is in the wedding business, and when I told her we were thinking about hiring Jof, she said "OMG YOU HAVE TO DO IT; HE IS THE BEST." And we are so glad that we did! Jof was amazing throughout the whole process. He was flexible with us when we scheduled our engagement session; it was raining so we decided to opt for a different day. He also gave us a questionnaire to fill out before the wedding to make sure we were all on the same page. Jof also put together a timeline to help make sure we stayed on schedule the day-of and captured all of the wedding pictures we wanted. On the day-of our wedding, Jof and his assistant (Karina) arrived at the venue right on time and got straight to work. They were amazing and so attentive. We got ALL of the pictures we wanted. Karina and Jof were so sweet - they also made sure I was comfortable the whole day - including taking breaks when I needed them. I so appreciated their flexibility when we had to shift some of the timeline around. We haven't seen all the wedding pictures yet, but Jof already shared the sneak peeks with us (less than 24 hours after our wedding!) and they look amazing. Bottom line: BEST WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER EVER. Brides: spend the money on a good photographer. It's worth it.

    Wonderful experience, wonderful photographer. Jof's style is light, airy and magical; we knew after he shot our engagement photos that he was 'the one'. He was an absolute pleasure to work with, and was able to accommodate our schedule and desires with regard to how we wanted our wedding photographed.

    Jof is AMAZING! From our initial consultation to our engagement photos and finally to our wedding, Jof was incredible. He is super responsive and really listens to your desires or concerns. Josh and I can't imagine anyone else capturing these special moments in our lives. We are extremely pleased and thankful to have had Jof a part of our wedding!

    Oh my gosh, Jof is so wonderful! He shot our engagement session in DC and from the first email to receiving the photos, Jof was so easy to work with. Guys, he sends out a style guide with outfit tips and suggestions! He'll provide contact information for local stylists! Who does that?! I also really appreciated that he gave us suggestions for locations, but was so willing to work with us to shoot somewhere that was special and meaningful to us. When we arrived on location, Jof made us feel more comfortable immediately. Looking at the photos he took, we are laughing or REALLY smiling in all of them - which is so rare for two people who are not typically fans of taking photos. We can't thank you enough, Jof!

    After seeing the beautiful photos Jof took of some friends of mine, I knew I had to work with him. He has an incredible eye for light and scenery, and he captured stunning photos of my fiancé and I during our engagement session at Meadowlark Botanical Gardens. Neither of us had done a professional shoot before, but he guided us through the session and made us feel completely comfortable so that we looked our best. He is such a dedicated and kind photographer to work with and his experience and expertise make his photos shine. We are thrilled with how the photos turned out (and so are our family and friends!). We will cherish them forever!

    There aren't enough words to describe the kind of photographer Jof is. I was given a sweet present by my cousin to have engagement pictures done by him. I was so taken back by Jof's easy going character and down to earth heart. He's attentive to our likes, to details, and goes beyond all expectations. He made me very comfortable, even my husband who doesn't like pictures so much. You can see his passion for photography from the very start! He has photographed our two engagement shoots and our wedding. It rained for our wedding and Jof was there supporting us, even with the crazy idea to keep the ceremony outside. The pictures came out so romantic, stunning and looked like it didn't rain. He's so amazing! We love Jof! I highly recomend him to anyone; you will not be disappointed.

    Jof was absolutely amazing!!! He photographed our wedding in March and it was so wonderful! First, he is so personable, we felt like he was an old friend after our first meeting. That was so important because we spent so much time with him on one of the biggest days of our lives. Jof is also so organized and prepared for anything. The crazy weather kept changing the week of our wedding and it ended up raining/snowing. I called Jof first thing the day of the wedding and I'll never forget what he told me to calm all of my worries. He said, " Not everyone gets to have rain on their wedding day; we will make it great!" And he did! We have some of the most memorable pictures from our wedding because of Jof's creativity, skill, and flexibility. The quality of his work is amazing and we got our pictures back within a short amount of time.It was truly an amazing experience having Jof as our photographer.

    Jof is one of the most talented photographers I know! He has shot my senior photos from college, our engagement session, and now our wedding! Both myself and my husband aren't the most comfortable with someone else taking our photos but Jof has the ability and personality to make us feel completely comfortable the entire shoot, which made our photos look so natural. Jof is such a great person to work with and delivered our photos in a very timely manner. Highly recommend!

    SUPER HIGHLY recommend Jof for any photography needs. He was very professional to work with and he made us feel like we are always his priority. He was the one that was always reminding us with texts like "Hey, 3 more weeks till the wedding....are you ready? :)" That really made us feel like he was just as excited for the wedding as we were!

    We worked with Jof for our engagement photo shoot, and are so happy with how the photos turned out! We wanted to do our photos on the Mall, and he was super accommodating by doing a sunrise photo shoot with us in multiple locations. It was our first time doing professional photos, and Jof was really great in making us feel comfortable with one another and directing us through the shoot. He even sent us an style guide before hand and answered questions I had about our outfits which was super great in making sure we were prepared. He sent us our photos in a timely manner, and they are so beautiful! I would definitely recommend working with Jof, and would use his services again in the future!

    Jof took our engagement photos and we had a great time with him! He's so nice and made us feel at ease. He also did a great job directing us and telling us how to look our best. He covered everything from outfit suggestions to location for the photo background to "posing" during the photo shoot. Although we did very little actual posing which helped make the photos look very natural and not cheesy. His photos have a light, romantic vibe and he is very creative. He's a natural talent and a great photographer. He's the best I've worked with and I would recommend him to all of my friends and family. We love how our photos turned out.

    We have known Jof for a long time. He and his family are very dear to us. He has captured every significant memory in our lives, up to this very day. We started experiencing his talent as a photographer at our wedding day. He was full of energy, creativity and professionalism. From that day on, we knew his unique style and originality will do a lot of wonders and will go beyond imaginable. We have witnessed how his talent blossoms into an intricate trademark that no other photographers possess. His use of natural lighting, techniques and simply pure passion into his work is what makes him different from the rest out there. He makes you feel comfortable with every poses, shots and smiles. In addition, we also have experienced his art in our maternity, newborn and 1st birthday cake smash of our first born daughter. This shows not only his flexibility of any type of photography he is able to do, but also confirms how he could practically do anything. He has an eye, with collaboration of his beautiful wife, Riza, to create an experience and photos to last a lifetime. He creates shots and photos that you can always look back and replay certain events, feeling like it just happened yesterday. We will definitely continue to have Jof as our family photographer as long as he take us as his clients. We are more than thankful and blessed to have known Jof! We love Joffoto! <3

    One of a kind...
    Joff is a very professional and talented photographer! He brings out the best in you. His very creative mind comes out in his beautiful pictures. We had our couple pictures taken by him and our family picture. We have a big family and with the kids, it's very hard to capture good photos but he made it very easy for us and the kids to enjoy the whole pictorial. I would definitely recommend him to any of my family, friends and to anyone who wanted to get the best pictures of the special event in their life..

    Jof Panlaqui is an outstanding photographer! Initially, he took my brother’s family pictures. I saw the amazing quality of work in the family pictures and the passion that showed through his work so we hired Jof for our engagement and wedding photos. We were Jof’s first wedding in August 2012 and we trusted him and felt very comfortable with him taking out pictures. Joffoto’s prices are the best in the Northern Virginia area. Jof went above and beyond for us. At a last minute request, he even stopped by and took pictures for my Bridal Shower. He captured some amazing photo’s from our wedding and we have one above our fireplace and throughout the house. He is our family photographer and friend. We are so proud of how his business has grown! We recently referred Jof to our Cousin for their wedding in August 2016.

    Though I have worked with many professional photographers, our experience with Jof has undoubtedly set a new precedent - a standard that we will have a hard time finding again.

    Engagement photos can be a new experience for a couple, and nerves can ultimately take over. Not with Jof. From the moment we met, he was relaxed, positive, and made our time in front of the camera feel natural and authentic. Having taken engagement photos previously, we were more than aware of the awkward posing and bizarre staged photos that can sometimes take over a shoot. Jof created an environment where for the first time, I got lost in kissing my fiance - I enjoyed the moment I was creating WITH him, not for the purpose of a shot.
    Creatively speaking, Jof is a natural, and his camera is an extension of his vision. He knows how to capture an existing moment, and the angles and backdrops to our love only helped tell our story.
    Jof is the consummate professional, responding quickly and editing our photos withing hours/days of our shoot. In less than a week's time, I was able to share images with my family and friends - a huge plus.

    Photographers are a dime a dozen, but Jof is one of a kind. His abundant talent, his professional demeanor, and his easy-going personality make him a joy to work with. We will be recommending Jof to all of our friends for years to come!

    WOW! Let me just start by saying that we had such a wonderful experience with Joff! He is not only extremely personable and professional, but also brilliant and precise with his work. Every shot was artistic, thoughtful and beautiful. He took our themed engagement photos and my fiance and I could not be any happier with how they turned out! I'd recommend Joff to anyone for any reason. Thanks again for everything!

    Jof took incredible photos at my wedding. He was on time, stayed in constant communication with my husband leading up to the wedding, he was friendly, attentive and very professional. Plus, I'm not really one who likes being in front of a camera but he knew exactly how to have us pose and how to make us feel comfortable. He returned our photos to us within a few weeks and even sent us a few pictures advance so we could have a photo included on our thank you cards. Jof captured each and every guest at the wedding. He took a great mixture of photos from the ceremony, my husband and I, the guest, the cutting of the cake, the table arrangements and a lot of candid photos. I would recommend Jof to anyone who wants to be 100% sure their special day will be captured perfectly from start to finish :)

    My wife and I worked with Jof for our engagement photos. Jof is extremely talented, creative and has an eye for seeing things that will make the most perfect images. We expected to have a few nice photos from that day, but we loved all of them!

    We were a little nervous prior to our photo session, but Jof made us both feel completely calm and at ease. He was an absolute pleasure to work with. He is incredibly professional, attentive, creative, and accommodating. It is very clear that Jof loves what he does. He exceeded our expectations, and as a result we have many beautiful photos. We highly recommend him to any couple!

    P.S. We plan on using him again soon :)
