Hello!
Hi! We are Hoffer Photography, a boutique studio founded by husband and wife team Amy and Tony Hoffer. We’re based outside Philadelphia. Since 2007, we’ve been capturing both Philly weddings and destination weddings around the world with a focus on authentic, original images.
Our team consists of us, Amy & Tony Hoffer, our studio manager Lindsay Banecker, and our Associate Photographer Jim Heine. We’re friends who have traveled, laughed, and grown together through our shared love of photography. With over a decade of working as wedding photographers in Philadelphia and beyond, we’re proud to bring both experience and a level of service towards the thing we’re most passionate about: You.
We’ve been honored to be recognized as “among the best wedding photographers in the country*”, with our work featured internationally in outlets like The Guardian, HuffPost, and Professional Photographer. Locally, we’ve been in publications such as Philadelphia Magazine and Main Line Today and many more. Our photography style blends thoughtful composition and authentic emotion to create images that reflect the unique personalities of our clients.

Amy + Tony
Hoffer
We’ve been wedding photographers nearly as long as we’ve been together. Our photography style came organically. Amy’s mom volunteered Tony to shoot a coworker’s wedding and within a year we had 35 more! We didn’t know it at the time, but our focus on personalization resonated quickly. Within a few years, we went from shooting Philly weddings to getting work all over the world! Eventually, we started building a team that values the same thing that we do: People.
We live in Chester County, PA (outside of Philadelphia) in our little cabin in the woods. We’re obsessed with our two dogs, traveling and food. We’re into fitness and sitting our fireplace. Amy is an excellent cook and has a ‘competition’ chili that is unreal. Tony thinks he’s a professional athlete despite most evidence to the contrary.
Aside from wedding photography, we have a studio attached to our home where Tony shoots Commercial work like headshots, products and much more. Amy teams up with Lindsay and shoots Boudoir on-location. If there’s something you’re looking for, hit us up! The answer is usually ‘Yes.’
Jim
Heine
You know how good it feels when you make someone laugh? That’s what it’s like to be around Jim… all the time. Years before Jim was shooting for us, he was helping out wherever he could. He’s so hungry to learn, grow, and embrace new experiences and people. We’re completely honored to call him part of the HoffSquad and to have his amazing body of work be a part of our team. Jim captures emotion like almost no one else can. His laid back nature perfectly suits his documentary style. It’ll help you feel completely comfortable and allows him to make extraordinary images. You might never notice Jim while he’s shooting, but when you do, you’ll see a smile on his face.
Lindsay
Banecker
Our lives all changed for the better when Lindsay came into them. So did the lives of our clients. If you’ve ever been around creative people, then you already know why Lindsay is so important. Lindsay runs the show. She makes sure all our clients are getting their images as quickly as possible (very fast), keeping us on track behind-the-scenes and keeping up with our clients over email. We get so much great feedback from people about how easy and efficient things are and Lindsay gets the credit for that. Aside from running much of our day-to-day, Lindsay also shoots Boudoir sessions with Amy, second shoots many weddings with Jim and is our assistant/digital tech for Tony’s commercial work.
