These are beautiful! You guys look great…and great job Tony and Amy!
amazing job guys!!
Glad you mentioned the blog again on FB as I sometimes forget as I scan the amazing photos you post.
I am without words to accurately describe the feelings that so many of your photos cause me to experience.
I have smiled, wiped my eyes and laughed out loud. I have been left wishing that I could be half as happy as you portray these wonderfully generous young lovers in your photos.
I have come to understand that the subject in the photo doesn’t have to take up 90% of the viewing space, and some of the most touching of the photos make me feel as though I am looking through a break in the shrubbery or glancing through an open door.
Your shots cause me to stop and take in everything as my eye moves to the intended subject.
I also look at everyday things and scenarios differently now.
Hard to believe after all these years, and for the first time I am “seeing” what makes the photo special.
Thanks for allowing me this spot to verbalize what I have been thinking about since I first saw your work online.
Kudos to Hoffer Photography…and thank you again.
Allison – you look so happy and beautiful! You & Jon look like such a happy couple! Congrats! Tony & Amy, the pictures are beautiful, and I especially love the one with all the bright multi-colored flowers! Stunning!
Thanks Amy and Tony!!! Love the pics!! They are wonderful :-) You guys are awesome!
Thanks so much everybody! Kim, that really means a lot… THANK YOU!
Love the Flower shot Tony. It’s so colorful and happy. One of my favorites.
These are absolutely gorgeous! Bright flowers are my favorite!
Love the frame ones. great idea!
Very nice once again. Every shoot there is some new effect.
Thanks for my daily fix.
you two always make my friends look so pretty =) thank you again for your awesome talent!
beautiful, creative pictures! the first picture of the ring is stunning. great work
Gorgeous work Hoffers! I love the frame :)
Leaf + Ring = Art. It’s almost like an oil based painting. Good job.
Did you use your 100 2.8 for that? I have a hard time with Macros on my 5DII I think because there’s no native magnification factor on the body and I can’t get ‘as close’ to the subject as with other cameras.
Fabulous action shots! Love those.
Another stunning set from you!
you guys take some great pictures together. they are awesome!
I am Rachel’s Dad, and fellow 5D owner. You have an outstanding eye for composition, and a great Lightroom preset. I agree, it does take hours and hours to get it right. Love the use of the Radio Poppers for flash. Great exposure choices.
We are looking forward to meeting you at the wedding, and I probably should just leave my camera at home!
Kirk Reed
Fun — exciting — AWESOME!!!! You guys are ab fab — i absolutely love your style!
Ron – Friend of the Reed’s. Agree, Kirk leave all your camera’s home!!!
WOOW. these are absolutely georgeous !!
These are incredible! You have an amazing eye! No wonder Rachel planned her wedding date according to when you were available! The wedding photos are going to be awesome! And yeah, Uncle Kirk, leave your camera at home! Enjoy your daughters wedding! :-)
these really are fantastic. i love the action shots, they definitely capture rachel and nate. i can’t wait to see the pictures from the wedding!
Great pictures, I love when you are “one with nature”! You look great, Rachel and Nate. Nice to see you out of uniform!
Ooh. That karate kick looks way cool. I don’t know karate whatsoever but I’ll have to get my wife to lay down in the grass so I can give it a try. Great pics.
I agree that these are great shots. I know how important photography is to you, Rachel. I think you made an excellent choice of photographers. Will you be doing any action shots in your wedding dress?
I’m Nate’s Dad- These are fantastic shots. Lighting is awesome. Subjects are awesome. Action is awesome. Couple is awesome too. Ok, so I’m a bit prejudiced, but its still true. A great example of PROFESSIONAL photography.
I’m Nathan’s mom. I work for Longwood, so I’m thrilled that’s where Nate and Rachel had their pictures taken. Two beautiful people, in a beautiful setting, with an obviously gifted photographer….it doesn’t get any better! Carla

Hey Tony .. Great Shots. I’ve always been curious about shooting at Longwood. How are they about working with small light setups around the property? Need special permission?
Brian:
As usual, incredible shots, Tony! I absolutely love the ring shot on the leaf, and appreciate your use of lighting in the last two. Great work!
Feuza:
a friend of mine in Brazil had told me about your work and the incredible shots you get, and he was not kidding, loving this
Rachel:
That ring shot? TO DIE FOR!! Ahhhh, it’s so good!
And what a cute family!
Drew Oliver:
OMG – What gorgeous pictures of such a beautiful family! I absolutely looooove them, they should be in a magazine they look that good.
Dave Barnum:
Tony/Amy,
Blog-stalker Dave here.. My wife and I both enjoy photography as well and yea – we both stalk you. I had to comment on the ring shot.. Absolutely stunning!! You are officially my favorite photographers and an inspiration!
PS: First noticed you were at Longwood because of those arches (after the ring shot) – great use of the place.
Carolyn Richardson:
Totally agree. That ring shot is one of the best I have ever seen.
Tiffany:
Thank you so much for these beautiful pictures. You were able to capture our family in so many wonderful ways. We are forever grateful. Cannot wait for the wedding. John, Tiff & Rocco
Erika:
looooove love love that ring shot! SWEET.
Dennis Bullock:
Looks like a blast of a session!
Bryan:
Wow, amazing set.
Darlene:
I have never been interested in photography, nor have I ever stalked a website or facebook. My daughter has been looking at your work and just got engaged and showed me. Wow, incredible stuff here. I guess I am an official stalker now. I called her tonight and told her to call you asap for a date in 2012. We are just starting the whole venue picking process and didn’t know who to call first. Great stuff!! Hope to meet you soon
