Toby is amazing! pls see my bio and the info I wrote about him. He is well worth the money and really represents what today's bride is looking for (no matter if your style is contemporary, classic, casual, etc).

Excellent service and photo package. The photos were amazing and really captured the spirit of the wedding.

Toby and Renee did such a fantastic job on our engagement photos here on The Big Island of Hawaii that we invited them to travel and photograph our destination wedding in New Mexico too! The quality and supply of the photos we received is priceless and we really feel that all the special moments of our wedding day were captured. Our guests commented on how friendly and unobtrusive Toby and Renee were but how incredibly hard they were working to get us the best possible shots from all angles and with all different lenses. I highly recommend them for any of your photography needs and plan to hire them again in the future!

Toby is brilliant. We talked a number of times about what we wanted and needed. We had a complete photo package. We also had his videographer Todd. Todd did a live feed for us. Our grandparents were not able to attend do to poor health. They were delighted to be able to watch the wedding as it happened. About a week later we were able to send the link to all our friends and family that could not see it live. They also really liked it. Toby arrived early and worked tirelessly. He has such a fun smile and manner. He was able to get all the people to cooperate as if it was their idea not his. He was unobtrusive and always caught the moment shots. He knows what he is doing and would be your best choice for a photographer. He deserves all of the awards he has earned.

Toby & his staff were total professionals and the end product reflects their love for what they do. My daughters wedding was held in Kona at a private residence and the pictures are simply beautiful. He captures so many moments that helped us recreate the wedding for those family members back home that were unable to attend. The video is totally awesome and the best part was that we were able to share a short video with everyone before we made it home. Toby Hoogs Photography is simply the best!




Toby was fantastic to work with and his photos are gorgeous. We wanted a photojournalistic feel to our wedding photos since we are not really into posed pictures. Toby was everywhere and his photos are like works of art. He’s been a little hard to get a hold of since the wedding. We waited over 6 weeks for our proofs after the wedding, I’ve emailed him about getting some photos printed through him without response and our we are in a holding pattern waiting for our CD of photos released from him. He's definintely one of the best photographers I've worked with and the lack of follow up after the wedding doesn't bother me that much now that I've seen the beyond amazing photos.
