Bobby is the one
Where to even begin? I saw Bobby in action at a previous wedding (a year before even getting engaged) and knew he was THE ONE. I wanted to work with him so badly that while we were booking our venue, I was texting him on the side to first confirm he was available that date!
Our engagement photos were beyond stunning, but more importantly, Bobby made it FUN. Both my husband and I are incredibly nervous and awkward when cameras come out, so we weren’t exactly looking forward to our session. But Bobby instantly put us at ease and reminded us to just be ourselves and the love would show. He’d lead us into the shots and capture the most beautiful candids along the way. We legit fell in love all over again during our engagement shoot, and the results were amazing.
On our wedding day itself, same story. Bobby did a casual prep session leading up to the wedding so he knew what was/wasn’t important to us going into it, and remembered things that I had totally forgotten about. We had a blast and the photos are unreal.
The next day my mom told me that her “favorite person at the wedding was Bobby” (haha thanks mom) and after getting photos and videos back my dad hit the group chat with “Bobby and video guy are the best talent I have seen. What a treasure.”
If he’s available during your date, don’t give it a second thought. Consider yourself lucky and lock him down.-

Best Wedding Photographer! Santa Cruz
Bobby was incredible to work with. He truly went above and beyond, capturing our special day in the most beautiful way. He walked with us through the Santa Cruz redwoods to find the most magical, scenic, fairy-like spots. The results were the most epic, dreamy photos we could have ever imagined — completely true to us and the setting. He understood the vision and exceeded our expectations, creating a calm and positive environment for us. Thank you so much! -

The chillest photographer ever
Bobby is the best, we booked very last minute due to adverse circumstances and he still made it all an absolute dream. Our photos are not only beautiful but adventurous just like us! Bobby was great to work with and we highly recommend.-

The chillest photographer
Bobby is a true artist! Such a talented guy. He brings such a relaxed, mellow vibe to the photoshoot, even though he had us climbing around on rocks and cliffs. He was truly awesome. We have definitely had a few people see our photographs and wish they had found him for their own weddings.

The best experience
We absolutely loved working with Bobby. From the beginning, they brought an extremely calm, chill presence that made the entire experience feel natural and fun. We knew from looking at their portfolio that they were the one, and they were the very first vendor we chose for our wedding. What stood out most was how fully they embraced our untraditional vision. Both our engagement session and our non-traditional wedding timeline required creativity, flexibility, and a willingness to step outside the usual formula. They not only supported that but they elevated it. It truly felt like we were co-creating art together. Bobby's ability to listen, adapt, and capture the authentic energy of our day was exceptional. If you’re looking for someone who will honor your ideas, meet you where you are, and help you bring something unique to life, we cannot recommend them highly enough. -

Wedding & Engagement photographer
Bobby shot both our engagement photos and wedding day photos. We are so thrilled with how they turned out. His presence behind the camera made all the difference in making us both comfortable in front of it. Turnaround time for our gallery deliverable was insanely fast. Unheard of in this industry! -

Top Freaking Tier Photographer
Bobby was exactly what we wanted in our wedding photographer - his aesthetic was on point, he was super easy going, responsive, and was able to meet our budget. The places he took us for our engagement shoot were also so special and really felt like the environment captured us, which we appreciate. And lastly, he was able to spot the right instances on our wedding day to capture the moment through his lens without us telling him, letting us remember it forever. -

Beyond grateful
Hiring Bobby as our photographer for our wedding was the best decision we made! He's the kindest, most genuine guy and you, along with everyone else will feel it during your time with him.
He captured everything. From the tiny details, to the big emotional moments, the laughter, the tears, and all the chaos in between! Looking through our gallery feels like reliving the day over and over again, and the way he was able to tell our story through his lens is nothing short of incredible.
What impressed us, and our guests the most was how seamlessly he balanced being present and supportive while also blending into the background. He never missed a shot, yet we never felt like the day was being staged or interrupted. Our photos feel natural, timeless, and so authentically "us".
Our friends and family were raving about him the entire night, how can you not when he brings the best energy along with him. If you're looking for a photographer that goes above and beyond, who truly cares about his couples, and who delivers breathtaking photos, Bobby is your guy!
Words can't thank him enough, we love ya Bobby!!-

Not Your Average Joe
We cannot recommend Bobby enough! We were fortunate to work with him as our wedding photographer (he did our engagement photos too) and he was freakin amazing through and through. He has the perfect mix of professionalism, creative energy, and peaceful calm that will put any nervous bride/ groom/ wedding party member at ease on the wedding day. He made my husband and I feel comfortable in front of the camera somehow and captured the days beautiful, natural moments. He really emphasized enjoying the day and not taking up too much time on the posed/ curated photos. Bobby did the damn thing and we love love LOVE how our photos came out! If you want your wedding photos to incite a feeling that life has never seemed as beautiful as it does at this very moment, of summer nights, and belly laughs, then Bobby is your guy! -

Hands down the best photographer you could ask for
I cannot even express how grateful I am for Bobby. From our engagement photos to the wedding, it was so smooth and so chill. It felt like hanging out with an old friend who just happened to also take INCREDIBLE pictures. You will receive the kind of pictures you thought only existed in museums. He captures love and light in ways that are never forced and always absolutely gorgeous. He picks up on your vibes immediately and goes with the flow, and as someone who had a very lowkey non traditional wedding that was HUGE. He is responsive, so easy to work with, and genuinely cares about what he creates. I hope everyone who wants both a friend and an amazing photographer will find Bobby!!!

Engagement/Wedding!
If you want standard posed pictures, Bobby is not your guy! If you want moments captured naturally by one of the most genuine people, Bobby is the man! He shot our engagement session and introduced some creative ideas—like a beach bonfire—that made for an amazing experience, and the photos turned out unreal! When he recently shot our wedding, my husband and I were surprised by how few pictures we felt we had
taken during the day. But when we saw the sneak peeks, we were blown away! Bobby is not only incredibly talented, but he also has a unique way of making you feel comfortable in front of the camera, which was huge for us since we’re not picture people. We’d highly recommend Bobby for anyone looking for timeless, candid photos! -

Amazing experience with a photographer that put us immediately at ease!
Bobby was a preferred vendor for our venue (Sequoia Retreat Center), and we contacted him for our wedding photos. As part of that, Bobby included an engagement photo shoot, and we met him in the redwoods near the beach north of Santa Cruz.
Bobby was absolutely amazing to work with. He made shooting the photographs for our engagement shoot and our wedding a fun time, not at all a chore or a stressful situation. Instead, we were immediately put at ease by Bobby’s fun attitude and eye for catching great pictures with a minimum of fuss. He got us the engagement photos very quickly and they were fantastic. The wedding went similarly – he was on site and ready, caught a bunch of good shots of us before, during, and after the ceremony, attended to all of the set photos we wanted quickly, and was able to get a bunch of photos of all the guests and venue. The day went extremely easily and a lot of that was due to Bobby. We recommend him equivocally for anyone wanting a fantastic wedding photographer. Thanks Bobby!!

Bobby is your guy!
We recently had the pleasure of working with Bobby for my wedding, and I couldn't be happier with the experience and the results. From our initial consultation to the final delivery of our photos, he was professional, creative, and incredibly easy to work with. Bobby took the time to understand our vision and preferences, which made us feel comfortable and confident on our big day. He captured every special moment beautifully, from the candid laughter during the ceremony to the intimate details of our reception. What stood out the most was his ability to blend into the background while still capturing stunning shots. The final photos are a perfect mix of posed portraits and candid moments, showcasing the genuine emotions of the day. I also appreciated the quick turnaround time for receiving our photos, and the quality exceeded our expectations. Bobby has a remarkable talent for storytelling through his lens, and we are so grateful to have these memories preserved. I highly recommend Bobby to any couple looking for a dedicated and skilled photographer for their wedding. Thank you for making our day so special!-

Incredible Photographer!
Bobby was the perfect photographer for our wedding last month! We instantly clicked with him from the initial consultation and we knew he would deliver on the big day and boy did he!! He completely understood our vision for capturing our wedding day and made the whole photography part feel so seamless and stress free. I am someone who is very awkward in front of the camera and he made the whole thing feel so chill and he captured the day perfectly. Weeks later and I am still in awe of our wedding pictures! -

The best photographer!!
It was an absolute pleasure working with Bobby for both our engagement shoot and our wedding day. Bobby brought an air of ease and calm wherever he walked, and it was delightful to watch him blend in with the crowd or nature to get the perfect shot (a friend asked if he ever worked for National Geographic after witnessing Bobby crouch down in the tall grass during our ceremony). He made my husband and I feel so comfortable during our engagement shoot, and the photos reflected it. He was super responsive throughout the entire process and knew just how to arrange the two of us to get some incredible, natural-looking photographs. He delivered photos quickly and efficiently as well. We are so grateful to Bobby for capturing such a special day! -

1000000/10 highly recommend!
From the initial phone call (which we got about an hour after inquiring), my fiancé and I knew that we had found our wedding photographer. However, we did not know that Bobby would pretty much end up as a part of the family by the end of our small wedding of close family and friends. He is simply a super rad and kind human being and we feel very lucky to have been able to connect with him. Another plus: he was extremely responsive every step of the way. For both the engagement and wedding photos, we were given sneak peeks shortly after shooting and timelines were provided for the final albums. We loved our images for both shoots and are so grateful to have these beautiful memories forever. Bobby has a superb talent for catching all the right moments and will put you at ease while doing so. -

You won’t find a better photographer!
Bobby freaking Harding is an absolute artist, but more than that he’s an incredible human. We first worked with Bobby for our engagement shoot. He happily drove up the coast so we could take photos where my fiancé proposed in Pacifica. We had initially booked him as our photographer for a wedding in Santa Cruz. But we ended up making a big shift in our wedding plans, changing our venue from La Selva Beach to Northern Ireland. We asked Bobby if he’d be willing to travel to Ireland for our wedding and he gave us a resounding yes. Our wedding would not have been the same without Bobby. He truly made it even more special with his big smile, positive attitude and camera skills. We had some pretty intense rain during our ceremony, but he didn’t flinch and he still managed to get all of our photos accomplished once the rain stopped. He got every shot we wanted and more, the photos truly bring me to tears and captured our day so wonderfully and he made it all look so stunning. I cannot wait to share them with our future children. Bobby, you know we all fell in love with you those few days. Thank you for being such a wonderful addition to our celebration and becoming a lifelong homie. -

Incredibly talented and great to work with!
We are so happy with our experience working with Bobby. The photos he took of our Big Sur elopement are stunning. We sent him inspiration photos prior to our wedding day to share our ideas about setting, color, and light. Bobby also made sure to call us and discuss these ideas and any questions we had, and he was immediately warm and helpful. He executed on the vision we had for our photos flawlessly and was so fun, comfortable, and easy to work with. We can’t thank and recommend him enough! -

Positively amazing!
Bobby was a pleasure to work with throughout our engagement and wedding. Bobby’s playful attitude and contagious positivity makes every photo shoot full of smiles and laughter. He helped us throughout the process with planning logistics when we asked for advice, yet was extremely open to our ideas when we had a vision for particular shots. Bobby didn’t flinch when last minute changes during our wedding day were made. We threw him blindly into many situations, and he captured them beautifully. It truly felt like he wanted to capture the moments we were most interested in. And he somehow did it singlehandedly, running around all day to be in just the right places without us even noticing.
Bobby is someone who makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera and gives just enough direction for a great shot that does not feel stiff or posed. And he’s always down for the adventure—scaling rocks and wading through water to capture the best angle and lighting.
Oh and did we mention his eye for light? Even with our wedding being full of difficult lighting situations for photos (which another photographer we talked to made us feel uncomfortable about, saying we wouldn’t get good pictures at our chosen venues), between dappled lighting under trees, bright reflections on the beach, and a mixture of cloudy/bright direct light/back light/dark tent at the reception venue, Bobby found a way to capture each setting beautifully, each with their own different quality of light. The color and lighting he is able to capture is stunning; bright, saturated, moody and always artistically framed—not the typical washed out wedding photos you too often see. We would love to say we would hire Bobby at our next wedding, but the best we can do is give him 5/5 stars and tell you to hire him for yours!-

Capturing Moments with Artistry and Professionalism: A Stellar Wedding Photographer
From the beginning to the end, our experience with Bobby was nothing short of extraordinary. His keen eye for capturing the innate beauty of the venue and the authentic moments of our special day left us utterly speechless. Every photo is imbued with the natural elegance and romance that surrounded us, turning simple moments into stunning visual narratives.
His approachability and friendliness were truly delightful, adding a wonderfully positive energy to the atmosphere. He seamlessly blended into the festivities, engaging with guests and subjects with a warm and genuine demeanor, making everyone feel comfortable and at ease in front of the camera.
In terms of professionalism, he truly exceeded our expectations. Communication was impeccably clear and consistent throughout the entire process. He was receptive to our ideas and preferences, and his organized manner of working gave us confidence that every detail would be handled with care and precision.
In the crowded field of wedding photography, his work stands out as a testament to his exceptional talent and dedication. He didn’t just take photos; he told our love story through beautiful imagery, capturing the essence and emotion of each passing moment. We are deeply grateful for his contribution to making our wedding day extraordinary and highly recommend his services to any couple seeking a photographer who combines artistic brilliance with the highest levels of professionalism and friendliness. -

Incredible experience working with Bobby! Incredible photographs and an amazing personality to set you at ease
Bobby is nothing short of amazing. Looking at his portfolio you can see his unique ability to incorporate the beauty of natural landscapes without losing focus on the subjects, which makes for absolutely stunning photographs. From the first phone call I knew his calm and positive energy was exactly what we wanted to be surrounded by on our wedding day and sure enough he completely put us at ease on our big day, and on our calls leading up to it. He goes all out to get incredible shots of genuine moments. The lighting in our photos is pure magic, beautifully capturing the enchanting essence of our day. We absolutely loved working with Bobby!! -

Wavy AF, totally rad, super fun times
Cannot recommend choosing Bobby as your photographer enough!! His photography skills are absolutely on point (there was not a single photo we did not love between both our engagement shoot and wedding album), and his friendly and fun and laid back vibes will definitely make sure that working with him is nothing but fun and joy. -

Amazing photos, wonderful presence
Bobby was a fantastic photographer during all stages of our wedding! He has several hidden gem locations in the Santa Cruz area that were a great choice for our engagement shoot. He did a wonderful job at making us feel relaxed and comfortable and was able to capture some wonderful moments with stellar lighting that day.
We were so glad to have Bobby there for our very full wedding day. From the early morning of the wedding, our first look, the ceremony, and all the way through the reception to when we left at night, Bobby was able to capture every moment perfectly. He has a talent for getting people to relax and look natural, we came away with drop dead gorgeous “magic hour” photos and he also made sure it was a fun and memorable time for us to get away from the bustle of the reception and enjoy time on our wedding day together.
We wanted to have a good selection of candid photos as well as our posed shots to make sure we really remembered everything, this is definitely something Bobby excels at, he captured so much love and joy in our photos, every time we look at them we can’t stop smiling (seriously our faces hurt).
As much as we enjoyed our photos taken by Bobby we also were so grateful to have him there with us. He knew our timeline and was wonderful about checking in with us when it was time for cake cutting or our first dance etc. He also did a great job of reminding us that this was our day and that we could enjoy it however we wanted. He ran interception to give us space when we needed and helped keep us calm and everything moving smoothly.
We had sneak peaks in the first week for both our wedding and engagement shoot. The final selection for both took a few months, but we were busy in the throws of wedding planning/honeymooning so it felt like we got back from our honeymoon and got to re-live our wedding day with the final photos. Bobby had also been really wonderful with keeping us updated on progress so we never felt stuck not knowing when we would get everything.
We feel incredibly lucky to have had Bobby as our photographer and would definitely recommend him. Especially if you’re a bit anxious in front of the camera. -

1000% yes!
1000% yes!
If you want responsiveness, authenticity, and endless positivity, Bobby is your photographer. Not only will he have you feeling like an old friend within minutes of your first phone call, but he'll do the most important thing you want from a photographer: he'll listen to your needs.
Bobby makes it very apparent that he'll go above and beyond for his clients, making himself available any time to answer your questions or simply share ideas of how you envision your wedding day photos. The unanimous five-star reviews are a testament to his skill, and you'd be a fool not to book him! -

Epic photography created with ease
Bobby is absolutely the best! We chose him as our photographer for our wedding and engagement photos. He did a fantastic job. His dramatic style and play on lighting was exactly what we were looking for. We did an engagement shoot in Big Sur and had such a fun day with him. He really put us at ease. A great photographer is able to create a relaxed and comfortable environment for their subjects, and Bobby does just that! When we got our photos back, we were blown away. They were so beautiful. One of our goals was to have some truly epic photos, and we got them. We were so excited to later get our redwood forest wedding photos and again, Bobby did not disappoint. We are so happy with both sets of photos. He is a pleasure to work with. He was great at calming nerves on our big day. All our guests loved him. His communication is great, his contract is reasonable and he goes above and beyond with his deliverables. We hope to work with him again someday. -

Bruh, just hire Bobby
We can't recommend Bobby enough. From start to finish we not only trusted him as our wedding photographer but we had tons of fun along the way. He has such a good eye for setting up unique shots, especially in beautiful scenery and will bring out authentic moments. Nothing corny or too posed. We did our engagement shoot along the cliffs of Big Sur and had our wedding in the redwoods and Bobby's photos are drop dead gorgeous, we serious would have been happy with just 25-50 incredible photos but we got over 1000. He provided solid advice and guidance and lots of laughs. This guy will do handstands or hang off the side of a cliff to get the perfect shot. He's easy to get along with, our guests loved him, and by the end of it we felt like friends. His prices were also extremely affordable in comparison to others, and his value is top knotch. -

Best Photographer We Could Have Ever Asked For
There is a reason Bobby is listed as one of the best reviewed on Wedding Wire, The Knot, and wherever else he has stellar reviews on. He is, without a doubt, the best photographer we could have ever dreamed of hiring. Not only is his eye incredible, he is one of the coolest humans on this planet. My husband and I knew from our first phone call with Bobby that he was who we wanted to share this experience with, from engagements photos to the wedding itself. He made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera immediately, and he just lets you do your thing and brings out the best in you. Photographing with Bobby was the most fun we could have ever had.
All of our guests at the wedding raved about how cool, calm, and collected Bobby was and were stunned even more once they saw the photos he took of the day. His work is like an editorial from a magazine! You can tell that he really loves what he does for work, and you feel like you are his only client when he is working with you. He even photographed our 200 person wedding by himself and he never once looked tired or worn out!
100/10 would recommend Bobby for all of your photography needs. You will absolutely not regret it.-

Absolutely Amazing!!
We had a wonderful experience working with Bobby! He communicated well and was highly professional! I had no idea what I wanted in regards to my wedding photos but Bobby made it happen! Our wedding party and guests loved Bobby we got so many compliments on the photographer. He fit in to the wedding well and got even more photos than we thought we would. We will definitely be booking Bobby again for any future photography needs in the future. -

Absolutely Incredible
I can't say enough good things about Bobby. He is so responsive end the way he captured both our engagement shoot and our wedding left nothing to be desired. It was all we could have hoped for. To quote my wife when we first saw the photos of the wedding, "Oh my god, I'm obsessed." That should speak volumes about the work Bobby does. If you have the opportunity to have Bobby be your photographer, don't hesitate at all. -

Choose this guy!!!
Seriously, hire Bobby. You will not regret it! Not only are his pictures phenomenal (I had friends describe them as 'dreamy', 'looks like a magazine spread' etc) but he is a genuinely kind and fun person. It felt like working with an old friend by the time our wedding rolled around. Thank you thank you!!-

Stunning Photos, Great Vibes
As soon as my now-husband and I saw Bobby’s work we knew we had to have him as our wedding photographer. As owners of Brothers Ranch, a tropical garden wedding venue, we knew he would be able to capture not only us and our guests, but also do justice the the landscape in the background. He didn’t disappoint!! He was a pleasure to work with, discussing with us exactly what we were looking for prior to our wedding day and coming out to see the property. He made us feel super comfortable in front of the camera and was a positive, supportive, friendly (and fun!!) presence throughout the day. We definitely plan on working with him again in the future. -

The BEST experience!!
Bobby was the absolute best to work with! He made us feel super comfortable during our engagement shoot and we knew we were in good hands. His technique is stunning and you will not be disappointed with the end results. Very natural and romantic lighting. Definitely not the cookie cutter wedding photos you see everywhere. We could not be happier! -

Bobby was an amazing person and meshed perfectly with both families at my wedding. Everyone loved him and asked for his info. Would 100% use his skills again. The photos came out wonderfully and he has great communication.-

He'll go above and beyond to get the awesome shots!
My husband and I do not like being in front of the camera. Well, we don't like being in front of the camera for boring, posed, stuffy, forced photos. And that's why we hired Bobby. He is super personable and made us feel at ease and natural in front of the camera. He quickly got our vibe and leaned into it. Very intuitive and talented - his photos convey this great harmony of lighting, composition, storytelling, and emotion. And we love that he's into candid shots because we really didn't want to be stopped all the time for posed photos. We didn't even know Bobby was there most of the time - it was perfect. His pricing is reasonable, great quality, great communication, and overall just an awesome guy. Thanks for getting us to have fun and enjoy being in front of the camera! -

The BEST photographer!!
Bobby is AMAZING!
My husband and I hired Bobby to take our photos for our elopement that we planned in less than a week. I happened to find him on Instagram last minute. His communication from the start was great! He checked in with me to finalize details, making sure he knew what we wanted. When we met Bobby on our wedding day, he was extremely friendly and had such a fun but calm demeanor. We took photos at the chapel we got married in and then at Pebble Beach afterward. Bobby went ABOVE & BEYOND and took so much time with us. Our photos are absolutely amazing-we get comments all the time about them.
We are so thankful to Bobby and his incredible talent to capture beautiful photos that we will have forever! Working with him was the best experience!!! You will not be disappointed!!-

Bobby is a Gem!
Bobby should be your #1 choice if you have a wedding or need epic photos. He was easy and fun to work with, was a calm voice amidst what can normally be wedding chaos, and is a genuinely great human. We’re so thankful we found this Santa Cruz gem (I’m sure he’ll travel too if you aren’t local ;) We’ve just received our sneak peek and we can’t wait for all of our photos! -

The Best in the Business
We hired Bobby to do both our engagement and wedding photos, and he is an absolute pro. From the minute you meet him, you’re going to notice that he’s experienced, prepared, and has a great attitude. Throughout the process, Bobby made sure to keep in touch, and update us on the process of our photos. On the event days, Bobby had a plan and a vision, and was super flexible and quick thinking with any changes that came up. Everyone at our wedding loved his energy and presence. We couldn’t recommend him enough, and we’ll definitely be using him with any events we have in the future.-

Amazing photographer and human being
The best thing you could ever do for your wedding is invest in a great photographer. My family and I still speak of Bobby. An amazing photographer with a good soul. He is such a cool person. You’ll understand when you meet him. Bobby WORKED from the moment he arrived till the very end. He brings incredible energy and manages to tame the chaotic wedding energy. His photos are great for a reason. He’s mastered his environment and molds you in it. I’ve never felt so comfortable in front of a camera.
It’s not just a beautiful location with a great angle. It’s emotion. He creates a space for you to be vulnerable.
Bobby I can’t tell you enough how much I love these photos but the experience you created made them, and our wedding, that much more. Thank you thank you so much.
We paid and still somehow feel indebted to you 🤣 -

Cool, calm, & natural
What an epic experience! Bobby made us feel comfortable to be ourselves and captured genuine memories of our proposal. I was hesitant to do our engagement photos and the proposal together. However, Bobby reacted quickly in order to achieve many looks, moods, and special moments. Highly recommend for epic photos that are outside of the box. The styling is far superior in comparison to all the other cookie cutter photographers. Would recommend!-

Our 2020 Wedding
We had to change our plans a couple times due to the global pandemic and our timeline gave us 2 weeks to find a photographer. I reached out to Bobby and he replied promptly saying he was available for our date. We spoke with Bobby on the phone a week before to go over the event and our expectations, he was very flexible and easy to talk to. We had a small gathering of friends and family and Bobby captured the day perfectly! All our friends and family love the photos and so do we! It was our first time being professionally photographed and he gave guidence but also captured all the organic moments inbetween. Thank you for the memories!-

The best photographer you will ever experience
We knew right off the bat that Bobby was going to be the best photographer for our wedding. As soon as you talk to him on the phone you can tell just how easy going and hilarious he is, and that is made EVEN more clear when you meet him in person. His photography speaks for itself with how incredibly beautiful his photos are. Each one looks like it was pulled from a magazine. The weekend we wanted to take our engagement photos ended up being a huge storm in Santa Cruz but Bobby picked the gap in the storm to try to get our photos in, and they turned out absolutely incredible. Having him as our wedding photographer was like having an old friend at our wedding. I cannot even express in words what a huge difference it makes to have such an amazing photographer that you vibe with for your wedding, and it makes the photos look so natural. The wedding day is already stressful enough and not having to worry about the photographer or the photos was such a blessing. We prioritized our wedding photos and I am so glad that we did. Having an incredible experience with Bobby and now having all of the amazing photos to remember that day is truly priceless. If you are on the fence at all please do it, I promise you will not regret it. We definitely did not. We will be going to Bobby for all of our future photography needs for the years to come.-

Excellent, relaxed photographer
Bobby did a great job photographing our backyard elopement. We had to postpone the engagement session a few times (for weather and Covid related reasons) and he was super flexible and laid back about the changes, which we really appreciated. We were so glad we did the engagement session since we got a sense of his style and some amazing photos. The photos of our wedding were wonderful, despite somewhat harsh lighting in our backyard, and he did a great job capturing candid moments of our small family gathering. -

Great experience and photos!
I highly recommend Bobby to anyone looking for a wedding photographer! Bobby was so flexible with our changing plans. We had planned a May 30th wedding and changed it to a small beach ceremony June 1st due to Covid. Bobby was so supportive and easygoing about the change of date and location and really made us feel comfortable. He took beautiful photos of the ceremony, nice family photos, and then went with my husband and me to another beach setting for more photos of the two of us which turned out amazing! We are so happy with the way they came out and we're so glad to have these photos of our special day. Working with Bobby was the best experience and his flexibility made our day stress-free.-

Bobbie made my husband and I so comfortable and delivered even better photos than imagined! We had a little mishap with timing but he was so easy-going and willing to work with us. I would recommend Bobbie without hesitation to anyone and everyone that needs a photographer. We chose him for our small elopement and it was everything we could have ever imagined. If you want a photographer that really brings the magic and is able to make you feel comfortable, this is it for you! -

Could not ask for more!
Amazing, amazing, amazing!!!
Bobby was wonderful from the get-go, right from when we asked for a quotation for a pre-wedding shoot + wedding/reception shoot. He gave us sound advice to separate the 2 shoots, provided us with a bunch of ideas, sample photos, and reference points so that we could pick the kind of venue/vibe we liked best for our pre-wedding/elopement shoot, then brought us to a gorgeous stretch of untouched beach during sunset for it. Being somewhat awkward individuals, Bobby made us feel so comfortable throughout the shoot with minimal directing, and captured so many beautiful moments of us. Ditto for our actual wedding shoot a couple weeks after at La Playa Carmel - He was professional, so friendly, and took so many candid shots that we absolutely LOVED. Bobby killed it for us and we're so grateful to have found him. If there's one thing you need to do for your special day(s), you need to hire Bobby as your photographer!!-

Easy to work with and wonderful results!
Bobby was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. Planning a wedding is never going to be stress free, but he made sure that he and his team never added any to the process. His portfolio likely speaks better to his artistic abilities and technical skills as a photographer than a written review ever will, but we were absolutely thrilled with the results from both our wedding and the rehearsal dinner! His disarming demeanor brings a genuine sense of calm to a day that will undoubtedly be busy, and his nack for putting people at ease shines through in his work - I honestly can’t believe how relaxed, natural and happy some of these shots came out as we scrambled to put on our dream wedding. We couldn’t recommend him more highly, both for wedding and just general portrait and lifestyle photography as well. My sister ended up hiring him for a family photoshoot because she liked him so much, and her shots came out beautiful! -

Best photographer/photographs!
Bobby was amazing to work with from the very start! We were referred by a friend and after taking a look at his portfolio, Bobby became our first choice.
I was blown away by how he communicated through email, it was easy to get a feel for what kind of person he is and what it would be like to work with him. Walking through the contract and communicating was easy, Bobby's enthusiasm is infectious.
We did an engagement shoot and it totally blew out minds! Bobby's easy going attitude put us at ease and we ended up having a lot of fun, not to mention the photos were amazing. We knew then that we definitely hired the right person to shoot our wedding.
Our wedding photos turned out incredible! Bobby really captured the important moments but also caught a lot of candid moments as well. 100% would hire Bobby again for any special occasion.

Won’t be dissapointed
Bobby was great. Super responsive and flexible. Great candid shots. He’s not afraid to get out in the dance floor to get those great shots either. He is also very aware of time and was able to remind us, which is must needed in your wedding day. Not cheesy at all. His ability to capture those intimate moments is a true gift. Great price for such good quality. He’s open to ideas and has some really great suggestions. You won’t be disappointed. -

The best wedding decision we made!
Bobby was absolutely wonderful to work with. He made both my husband and myself feel comfortable and accommodated everything we asked for. He was professional and he made the whole process easy and fun. Regarding our actual photos, we were thrilled. As my husband keeps saying, "It looks like these belong in a magazine!" I couldn't be happier.-

The perfect photographer!
I don't even know where to start when it comes to Bobby. Exceptionally flexible and great communication skills, but with the most amazing artistry! We booked an engagement shoot with our wedding package which really helped our comfort level as camera shy people. The results were breathtaking and received in a very timely manner! Bobby has an eye for romance and finding the beauty in all things. I am so, so proud of the images we have and credit them to Bobby completely. It's hard to believe it's us in the photos!
Fast forward 6 months later to our daytime wedding. While getting ready, Bobby was behind the camera and we held meaningful conversation about relationships and the meaning of true partnership and love. It really helped relax me and instilled confidence. Bobby is just so easy to talk to and is able to work with SO many different personality types!
When we received our images, they were exactly how I remembered the day - everything was captured so perfectly. Our focus was on our community of friends and family and there is so much genuine happiness, magic and human interaction to be seen. I cried! Our collection of pictures tells a story and we get so many compliments on the pictures. I need a bigger apartment to put every single print on my walls!
I implore anyone considering him to view his portfolio - it will arouse emotions, bring a smile, and take your breath away as well. I couldn't be happier and I don't think I would've been as excited with any other photographer.
You simply can't re-take wedding pictures and it would be such a shame to get pictures that just look like everyone else's. I hope to hire Bobby again for any other life events. Even if I'm just adopting a cat, Bobby will be hearing from me!-

Bobby is the best!!
I am extremely happy to have found Bobby for our engagement and wedding photos. I did a lot of research trying to find the right artist to capture our wedding. One of my most important parts of the “wedding wish list” was having amazing photos and I couldn’t be more happy with the results. I love his artistic style and his personality. He was wonderful to work with and made us feel very comfortable. I would recommend him to anyone!!-

Professional, personable, captured the moment
My wife and I spent weeks looking for the “perfect” photographer for our wedding. We knew the style we were going for and there were many websites we combed through. Upon finding Bobby’s website, we loved his style, and when we reached out to him, we liked his easy going, yet professional demeanor. After a few interactions and discussions about scope of work with several different photographers, we decided to go with Bobby. From our first in person meeting at the engagement shoot, to the end of the wedding dinner, Bobby was incredible. He captured the energy between my wife and I, and he flowed with the day, letting the wedding unfold as he captured so many intimate moments. I can’t say how much I recommend Bobby. He truly gave us a time capsule of our most special day. His is a sage with a camera, this is for sure! -

Beautiful wedding photos!
We are thrilled with our photos, everything turned out amazing, even better than we could have expected. Bobby is very easy to work with and professional. He captured what it was like to be there, and our whole ceremony, but stayed out of our way. We told him we didn’t want to spend too much time on our group shots and couple shoot and I can’t believe how many special photos in so little time! We really can’t recommend him highly enough. -

If you want an artistic eye coupled with a chill personality, Bobby is your photographer
We hired Bobby as our photographer for our wedding this October (2019) in the Santa Cruz mountains. From the first few emails we exchanged back in Feb he's immediately felt like a friend, not only easy but delightful to communicate and work with. We had our engagement shoot with him in May (I highly recommend doing this if you're feeling at all awkward about being photographed like my fiancee and I were, put us right at ease) and it was just the best experience-- totally fun and a great bonding moment for my fiancee and me. I went into the engagement shoot feeling that as long as it broke the ice for us and we got 1 or 2 usable pictures it would be a success. The outcome was 100 times better than my expectations. It's been hard to choose which engagement pictures to use for all our wedding invites/materials and associated events because there are so many gorgeous shots to choose from. Neither of us are exactly fitness models, but he made us look awesome! I feel really really lucky we found someone this talented and affordable for our wedding day (honestly I think Bobby is so good he could charge more than he does). Plus, besides your fiancee you're going to spend the most time on your wedding day with your photographer--you should feel completely comfortable around them. Bobby is just so easy going and lovely, I think almost everyone would find him as relaxing to be around as we did. He's a photographer who both knows how to fade into the background when needed, and can give you a laugh at other moments when you're hanging out. I don't write many reviews, but this one I had to write! He's the best. Book him! :)-

Best photographer ever!
We are so grateful for Bobby and him photographing our wedding. He responded quickly and was very professional. He was so much fun to work with and made everyone feel relaxed and at ease. My husband and I never had our pictures taken before and Bobby made us feel like naturals. He captured our big day in such a beautiful way. I highly recommend him and we will definitely get pictures taken with him again in the future!-

Exceptional experience with Bobby
Bobby was a sheer delight to work with on our wedding day. He was professional and so light-hearted and easy-going; we felt so comfortable around him and in front of the camera (which is not usually the case). He responded to messages within a day and our photos came back B-E-A-U-tifuly and in a timely manner. If you have Bobby photograph your day, you will not only have the raddest, most artistic photos, you will also have a blast working with him.-

Fun times with Bobby
We did an engagement shoot with Bobby in the Santa Cruz area, and he was great at putting us at ease. We're not the "selfie" types that practice our poses ;) but he was able to get some great shots that still capture our personalities. He also knows a lot of great isolated beaches in the area. -

Do yourself a favor; use The Deep Light Co. for your big day!
They say a picture is worth a thousand words; use the Deep Light Company for your wedding and Bobby will teach you a picture is worth ten thousand words! We recently received our pictures back and could not have been happier. Working with Bobby is a breeze; he is flexible, fun, and really knows how to work a camera. We decided to have our wedding at my family property and I’ve never seen it in the way he was able to capture it. He captured the true beauty of the moment and the property. Because of Bobby and the Deep light Company we will forever have these wonderful photos to remind us of how perfect our day truly was!!! Thank you so much Bobby :) do yourself a favor and allow Bobby to document one of the biggest days of your life the best way possible. It was a better experience than we could have ever imagined. Thanks again Bobby!-

We love Bobby!
I'm so happy we went with Bobby for our engagement and wedding. The photography was very important to me, and I was a little apprehensive because he didnt have as many reviews as the other photographers in my budget and his prices seemed too good to be true. If you're mulling that over like I was, take the leap! He is SO talented, easy to talk to and work with, and extremely flexible. (He found us a new location for the engagement shoot when the planned one fell through unexpectedly, and he found a second shooter without a problem when I asked for one a few weeks before the wedding.) He made an awkward couple like us look good and his photo editing took it to the next level. -

Professional, talented and easy-going.
Bobby was the best decision we could have made for our wedding. His willingness to get things done, and eye of creativity resulted in memories my wife and I will cherish forever.

I was a little bit concerned when I first contacted Bobby to be the photographer of our wedding. I had a friend of a friend recommend him, and what I had seen from his Instagram account.
I met with him few moments before our wedding ceremony at the beach and from the first click of his camera, I KNEW he was everything I wanted and expected from the photographer of our special day: he's calm, fun and extremely professional with some amazing ideas! I wanted a jumping picture and usually I get tired of it since I have to jump 20 times to get a decent picture, but he captured it on the very first jump and the result is speechless!! His photography skills continued to amaze me. We had 2 other photo shootswith him: skateboarding and surfing! He captured it so naturally and easy (even when Josh was skateboarding right above me) that is super fun to pose (and no pose) because he is always on top of every detail.
He became a friend and to be honest he's the name I think as a photographer for all important moments of our life: whenever our family grow, for example, he'll be the one to capture and make all the special moments unforgettable and forever register!
Thank you, Bobby!! -

Most unique pics ever!
When Bobby tells you he "knows a spot," trust him. You may go off-trail up a mountain in your heels & dress, or to a remote beach, but your pics will be so beautiful.
Out pictures were turned around fast and efficiently too! I loved being able to see my wedding pics so soon. -

Incredibly Talented and Amazing Professional!
Absolutely amazing and everything we could have ever hoped for!! We found Bobby through The Knot and couldn’t be more grateful to have met and worked with him! We booked Bobby for our engagement shoot and wedding day. I even booked him for a bridal boudoir shoot to surprise my husband with. Not only is he incredibly talented, but he made us feel confident and comfortable throughout all of our shoots. Our engagement, boudoir, and wedding photos came out better than we expected and made our jaws hit the floor! Bobby really has an eye for capturing the beautiful, genuine, candid moments that you cannot pose or plan for. We would book Bobby a hundred times over and plan on using him for family portraits one day.-

The most stoked!
Bobby was a dream photographer to capture our small wedding. His casual attitude masked his absolute professionalism. Bobby facilitated a conversation before the wedding to help us all better understand the expectations, and he assisted when our vision was lacking. My husband and I are not accustomed to doing photoshoots, but Bobby made us comfortable by being conversational in his disarming demeanor. He is also just an awesome guy and by the end, he felt like a dear guest and friend.
The quality of the photos are breathtaking, capturing the essence, authenticity, and joy from the day with Bobby’s signature backlit style. He is committed to getting the best shots, has a vision for your personal portfolio and executes to a high degree. Couldn’t have asked for more.
