We truly cannot say enough amazing things about Joe Tobiason, our elopement photographer. From start to finish, he went so far above and beyond anything we could have imagined.
Not only did he help us coordinate our elopement from a different time zone and state — making everything feel seamless, calm, and intentional — but he also drove all the way from Seattle after Memorial Day weekend to capture our sunset photos during golden hour. Every detail was thoughtfully handled, and we never once felt stressed or unsure. Joe truly cared about our experience just as much as the photos.
He even picked up Hood Famous cheesecakes for us! That alone speaks volumes....read full review
We love Joe! 10/10 for both our hiking elopement and our celebration in California. His style perfectly captures the environment, the energy, and our personalities. He also throws in old film and black & white shots. Calm, kind, professional, and on top of it. Would book him again for any event ever.
We booked Joe for our wedding for the full day and some engagement photos. We had our wedding last month and were blown away by the photos he captured of the day! A great cross-section of us throughout the day and great candids of our friends and family.
Joe was very attentive to our preferences and needs in the lead up to our wedding and was able to blend in his own style. We'll be looking at these photos often over the next days and years--they just make us so happy!
