Tony these look amazing!! You both did such a wonderful job!! :)
-
These photos are fantastic! So beautiful!
-
Wow! I love the outdoor silhouette of Sarah and Jeff. There is another silhouette that is awesome, indoors, I think. The wedding cake with the lights behind is incredible! You captured a special moment with the groom and his mother dancing and Sarah looking on. The little girl photos are precious. And I love the laughter captured to enjoy once again. They are wonderful photos. Thank you, Tony & Amy. I was glad to get to meet you.

AMMMYY!! Killer shot of him kissing her forehead. Woohoo! Awesome. Oh and the rest are great too :)
-
Amy! Awesome job! Tony, how’d you luck out with such a talented wife who compliments you so nicely?!
-
Hi Tony! Where’s the 3 ring shot?? That is always one of my favorite pictures from your weddings! Other than that – AWESOME job!
-
Thanks Amber. I got a really good one, but it didn’t make the cut. I like the others too much :)
-
All very nice. I especially like the group shots. Too cool, man.

-
Amazing! I love your work and style it shows what an amazing soul you must have!
-
Wow. Now excuse me while I wipe up this puddle of drool off my desk. :-D
-
Love it tony! You never cease to amaze me!
-
What a wonderfull Capture of Romance!!! My eternal respect ;-)
Nice soundtrack btw, what songs do we hear? -
It was great shooting with you this past year Tony. Having been there for some of these shots makes them that much more enjoyable to me, regardless of how many times I see them. Your work is top notch, and your clients are pretty darn awesome too! Good luck in the coming season!

It is incredible that you did 44 weddings in one year. Blows my mind. You must be tired. Anyways, I’m so happy for the success and love of your work you have found in life. You deserve it old friend.
-
Congratulations Tony! You are a constant source of inspiration. 2009 was truly a breakout year for you, and I’m sure 2010 won’t be any different.
-
LOVE IT! You should put the slide show on DVDs and give it to prospective clients, that’s a very impressive group of photos!
-
There has to be a different job title for you because “Photographer” just doesn’t do justice to the kind of work you do. You put your heart in every picture you take and that’s not something you see too often. You and Amy have done an amazing job. Congratulations to you both on your achievements throughout the year(s)! …p.s…warm weather is overrated…no moving!
-
Wow! What an impressive slideshow!
-
What an awesome year in review! There were so many wonderful and truly artistic shots in there…including all 118! You have such a great eye for the perfect shot! Many of them made me smile or laugh even without even knowing the people in the picture, and to be able to capture that kind of emotion, character, and personality in a photograph is a truly God given talent! Hope this next year is more mind-blowing for you than last year! You deserve it! :)
-
What a fantastic slideshow! You had an awesome year in 2009! I can’t wait to see what amazing things you do in 2010!
-
And my favorite photo of 2009 is 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21…. Well you get the point by now. They are all so special that I would have a hard time picking a favorite. Tony & Amy you are so amazing and have been blessed with a wonderful God given talent. Thanks for sharing your masterpieces with us blog stalkers and making many of our days bright and beautiful.

I remember a very young Tony Hoffer and his sister making a “Sesame Street/Grover” video. You know, the “NEAR…..FAR” one.
You’ve come a long way. I look at your blog every day, because it’s beautiful, and it makes me happy. Your Mom and Dad must be so proud. Keep up the fantastic work!
(Jessi T’s Mom) -
Woo-hoo 6:38!
-
Wow totally awesome
-
I just love the one at 2:04, it has been my favorite all year!
Keep up the good work.

Chris:
Excellent images and beautifully post processed.
Emma:
beautiful model+one bada$$ photographer=awesome shoot.
i enjoy the slideshow/gallery…it’s a new year, try something new!
:o)
Aron Goss:
Beautiful work Tony. Love the new Blog and the slideshow was a great idea, perfect tempo to the image changes as well. Any slower and I would prefer to scroll.
Kevin Sherman:
Very nice. 24TS-E? Stellar work as always and Kate sure did great as well!
As for the slideshow… First, they need to stay up longer. Like another one or two seconds. I know it can also be controlled.. I sorta like having them all listed out, even if it might make your pages very long. I like to scroll through images personally. Probably the biggest disadvantage is that you have to use flash for the slideshow. If someone were to come by on a mobile device, there could be issues.
Otherwise, I think its a very nice player and blends very nicely into your site. Which slideshow player are you using?
Tony Hoffer:
What about showing a few of my favorites, then having the rest below in a slideshow?
Valerie:
Love the ones taken outside in the gray dress and adore the last shot with her dog.
Alex Firmani Photography:
I look at far more images when they are all displayed for me to scroll through so I am anti-slideshow. I don’t want to wait for the load time plus I use ClickToFlash because Flash is so poorly done on the Mac so by default I don’t even see the gallery.
I’m guessing 45 TS/E?
Kristina:
I see you had to ditch ffffff as the bg color of the slideshow as well… mine was turning turquoise. I was told fffffe was closest, you may want to try that. I would say increase the time by .5 sec, it’s a bit fast especially when viewing two verticals together. I also wanted to ask where you got the share buttons underneath, I want to do something like that on my blog. Come over and leave your comment for me, too! :) Cheers, Kristina
Jonathan Fletcher:
Watch out world, Tony got a new toy! I think the ones like #4 where the out of focus areas are used more subtly are strongest. Awesome work as usual.
Jeff Ambrose:
I prefer to scroll. Looks like you had some fun with the new toy.
Lindsay:
Oh, tilt shift. (right?) These are just lovely. The tops of the trees in that one diptych are mesmerizing. What’s interesting is b/c I subscribe to your blog via google reader, they always come out for me to scroll through. The slide show apparently doesn’t translate into Reader. Interesting.
Amanda Sharp:
I have the biggest smile on my face! I LOVE the photos of my sissy! I have soooo many favorites.
In regard to the slideshow, I always skip past them on blogs. I am just very impatient and like to be able to scroll through images…
Adrianna DiMartino:
She is GORGEOUS!! You are lucky to have such good looking friends ;) As for the slideshow, I think I prefer to scroll through. Great work Tony!
tamara:
Hey Tony,
This is my first time commenting, but I am always looking for your posts on Fred and get excited when I see your name. I love your style. I have been shooting for a year and have learnt so much from you and others and I want to take that opportunity to thank you for sharing with other artists. I really enjoyed the slide show, sometimes I scroll through pictures too quickly and I miss things. So this way really makes you savour every image.
Nice!
Andrea:
I do like the slideshow, especially if the speed is able to be controlled by the viewer. Great shots & she is beautiful!
My only other question is….why didn’t you choose Nate?? ;)
Vanessa Charles:
a really lovely shoot… beautiful images & subject! i prefer to scroll
Ryan Thompson:
Beautiful!
SCROLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!
Haley Kruse:
you are awesome. Love the slideshow but only saw it on the desktop not on the iphone…..that would be my ONLY complaint….these are just beautiful!
danielle:
I had to leave my google reader blog stalking to come post. I was going to say that I wouldn’t be able to view the slideshow on google reader, but all the pictures showed up in my google reader as individual pictures. So now that I’m at your site on my iPhone, i can’t view all the photos. I am not a fan of the slideshows myself. I rarely look at them on other photography blogs.
Resa:
Love your work! I prefer to scroll through all of the images. I can’t view them one the iphone with a slideshow. Personally I would like to scroll through all instead of just favorites.
Ruggero:
Beautiful slide…and work. :)
Paul Charette:
Srolling for me Tony! Keep up the killer work man.
Juan Rojo:
Great slideshow Tony! However, I’d suggest you do the hybrid: favorites in large images and the rest in a slideshow. The reason being that Google will have an easier time finding the images and indexing them when people do a local images-based search.
Emily:
Definitely prefer scroll. Great pictures!
Emil:
What a fierce set of photos. Your model is gorgeous…hard to believe she is an amateur!!! I dig a combo of scroll and then slideshow. I have to admit though I rarely sit throw the slideshow on other photogs websites; BUT I do dig this slideshow set up.
Tony Hoffer:
Thanks everybody! I guess the conclusion is that everyone likes the photos and hates the slideshow… Hahaha. Noted!
Sarah Bateman:
Love them! Particularly numbers 4 & 11 – the light and the color are so brilliant together.
Georgeous model!
Lisa:
Tony! I actually prefer the slideshow. Scrolling is ok but everytime I try to scroll and the pictures aren’t done loading it keeps pushing the page up and I lose my spot! But if you keep it scrolling, I won’t stop stalking so do what you like best! Also, if you’re ever looking to do an experiment shoot like this again and need somebody, let me know. Always nice to update my pictures!
Amy:
I know Nate, and I have pictures (and video) of him in that Speedo! You made a good choice.
