We honestly cannot say enough good things. There aren't enough words, truly.
Our hunt for a wedding photographer was REAL. We looked at 40+ photographers in the province of BC. While others had certain things we were looking for, no one seemed to have the whole package. We weren’t big on the ‘status quo’ wedding photos. While we absolutely wanted photos of the entirety of our day, we didn’t need the stock standard rings, dress hanging, people standing around smiling, etc. We wanted the 'dream,' photographer. One who could capture the raw emotion and vibe of the day, one who would capture those swoon worthy images, one who would capture all the ‘status quo’ things but in a...Bobbi Barbarich's reply:
Gulp. I'm not sure how to respond through these happy tears. This is everything I dream people will feel when they're looking for, and choose me as, their wedding photographer. Thank you for your trust, and knowing what you wanted. Thank you for wanting to feel what was in your photos, for wanting an authentic connection but most of all, for being absolutely you and welcoming me into your experience. I'm so grateful you searched far and wide! -

Cannot recommend enough!
When searching for a wedding photographer:
Bobbi's artistry was miles (oops, kilometers) ahead of anyone else in capturing the moments… Yes, we could have hired someone that took photos of us, our families, group shots but we didn’t see humanity and emotion in it. This was a queer wedding. By definition, if there is one, it’s not typical and we don’t need to fit the mold of tradition. We wanted to feel and relive the moments and feel the emotion of the day. We felt that Bobbi understood this and could deliver on it like no one else could!
The experience of working with Bobbi:
One of us really, really does not like photos of themselves and...Bobbi Barbarich's reply:
Jake and Josh, I am delighted you sided with feeling the emotion and humanity rather than sticking with tradition and portraits. Your wedding was incredibly full of character and love and relish, I'm so grateful my work stood out to you as the person to capture the essence of your relationship and the people in it. You put so much care and intention into everything, styling things so you could truly connect with your people, but still keeping it casual and flowy. Perfectly suited to my vibe. Eternally thankful I got to be there for you!! -

Bobbi was amazing to work with from the very start! She made sure we both understood what we were getting out of her style of photography to make sure our day was captured the way we wanted it to. She has a great way of making the photo sessions feel natural by getting us to pose in ways without making it feel fake and made us laugh tons. She was easy to get in touch with and set up meetings with as well. The photos are also all gorgeous and so professionally done. Couldn't be happier with our choice in Bobbi! 100% recommend.Bobbi Barbarich's reply:
Yes, Morgan! Thank you! Sharing how you felt about keeping it natural allowed me to fully present to make the most honest and beautiful photos for you. Such a beautiful day!!! You're both amazing. -

Emily Sent on 16/10/2023Bobbi is the GOAT
We chose Bobbi to document our wedding because we appreciated her candid style that captures the silly, wild and intimate moments of a wedding in a way that is not "super posed." Bobbi was very thoughtful in the lead-up to the event and took time to get to know us and our vibe. We appreciated her experience and insights working with our venue and how she helped make sure we had some time as a couple to connect during such a hectic day. Our family and friends all praised her warm professionalism and her ability to just blend into the background. Her photos are gorgeous and capture the joy and closeness we felt at our wedding. Bobbi is an absolute pro and worth every penny. -

Mikayla Sent on 12/09/2023The Best Story Telling Photography
Wow where do we even begin. Bobbi was incredible!! She was able to capture our day in a way we didn’t even know was possible. The photos we have received are absolutely breathtaking! You can feel the emotions in each photo as a story is unfolding. Bobbi’s photography isn’t standard, you are buying an experience that lasts a lifetime. Her photography is a documentary that tells a story from start to finish with everything in between. As we watch the slide show over and over again, we time travel back to being on top of Mt. Crawford, exchanging our vows in the most love filled intimate ceremony. Our day wasn’t posing in front of a camera being models, we...Bobbi Barbarich's reply:
Wow, I am SO GRATEFUL to have had this experience with you. You being open to whatever the day threw at us was the first step in helping me give you the welcoming, very real, very you, love story you share. You trusted me in your midst and this collaboration is the why and how behind your photographs that you will enjoy your whole lives through. Thank you for being who you are, and for sharing that together. It's incredibly beautiful to witness a relationship in its truest form.
I'm so thrilled to call you a friend, and I can't wait for what's in store for you. Much love!! -

Bobbi is an outstanding photographer.
We chose Bobbi because of her documentary style of photography. Her work seemed to tell a story rather than being a collection of posed shots. Looking through her site, we could tell she was talented at catching special moments, expressions, and emotions.
Bobbi made us feel comfortable, and like we were in good hands, right away. She had lots of time for us and had very helpful insights into the overall wedding planning process. The connection session was a wonderful bonus, and the photos from it are some of our most precious.
She has an artistic vision, and is energetic and charismatic. The photos she took have documented our wedding beautifully. We highly recommend her.Bobbi Barbarich's reply:
Kim and Gabe, I'm so thankful you trusted this day to me, that you felt comfortable and I got to use my decade of experience to help you along through some of the challenging bits of wedding planning.
But I'm MOST grateful that you took the time to comb through all of us wedding photographers out there, and choose the one who resonated with you the most. I'm very intent on giving my clients the space to naturally flow through their day and responding to the real moments, without me staging or directing moments to photograph--other than the wedding party portraits, of course!
You two have such a huge number of wonderful folks around you, it was... -

Ebonie Sent on 04/09/2023Amazing. Bobbi was so helpful.
We seen her photos and knew she was perfect for us. I had a lot of things go one before the wedding including my grandmother getting sick, so I did have to cancel and reschedule things with her and she was so understand. She made the whole process easier, and we could not be happier with our photos.Bobbi Barbarich's reply:
Ebonie and Greg, it was such an honour to be trusted by you to document your day and give you everything you wanted.
Beyond posed family portraits, we did virtually no posing and we can see in your images that you and Greg just got to fully be yourself--so much fun and ease and genuine experiences for you, and for everyone. I really appreciated being able to be part of the experience, not directing it, so you can genuinely experience what you felt at your wedding whenever you look at your photos.
It was an absolute joy to blend in with your people as you celebrated, and made for a really relaxed, totally authentic day. The first day of your marriage! How fun is that to say? -

Just truly incredible!!!!
I wish there were more than 5 stars!!!
For us going with Bobbi as our wedding photographer was a no brainer! We met her a few years earlier when she photographed my brothers wedding. At a time in my life where I didn’t feel the best about myself, she took a photo of me and my partner dancing that absolutely radiated our joy and love, and made us look INCREDIBLE even if our faces were silly and we had no idea the photo was evening happening.
When it was time for us to get married we just kept coming back to this photo, thinking if Bobbi managed to make us look this good, and take...Bobbi Barbarich's reply:
Jen! Levon! I feel incredibly lucky to have met you, and that you trusted me as the perfect person for your day. I knew the vibe was right as well, and that's probably the most important factor in choosing a wedding photographer. I will never tell you how I levitate but I am grateful you appreciate the ability ;-)
"All the smiles and joy, all the chaos and silliness, things we never got to see at the time, all of our most treasure family and friends are perfectly captured the way we love them." This is what I strive for, Jen and Levon! Thank you for giving me the trust and energy to do so. xoxoxo -

A photographer better than what you are looking for
If you are looking for someone to capture the day in the purest way possible, and to have photos that exceed your expectations, Bobbi is your person. Let us tell you about our journey looking for a photographer, and our days leading to and including our wedding.
We searched for photographers by all means; based on recommendations, we looked for photographers that captured wedding photos that we liked, we looked at various sites where photographers offered their services, and through Google searches.
We gravitated to Bobbi based on a checklist we had, then chose her based on our feelings. The “checklist” for our photographer consisted of these key points: timeless, authentic, and natural.
Timeless:...Bobbi Barbarich's reply:
Kevin and Jess, you were so intentional in choosing your photographer, and all your wedding vendors. And I'm exceedingly grateful for that... planning a wedding can be incredibly overwhelming... but when you truly know the experience you want to have, that guides who you hire. And it helps you prioritize so there is less overwhelm. AND it helps you attract the people who are perfect for you!
I say all this because it's what testimonials are for: to help the next person understand how to make the best choices for them. And you and Jess did it perfectly because you had the experience I hope all of not just my clients, but any photographer's clients, have. You... -

Alex Sent on 18/05/2023Just go for it!
Bobbi was so amazing to work with! She has such a lovely way about her. She is fun, talented, and so easy going. It made our day feel really relaxing. With her documentary style of photography, we got so many beautiful moments captured. I had complete trust that Bobbi would see and document the important stuff, but also some of the smaller moments. I am truly so thrilled with her work, and I could not be happier I chose her for our wedding day. If you are thinking about it, I HIGHLY recommend Bobbi for your wedding.Bobbi Barbarich's reply:
Thank you, Alex and Stewart!!!! Having your trust in my documentary approach, that I would see and document all of the things, gave me the confidence to do just that! Your day was so relaxed and lighthearted, the perfect reflection of your relationship. It was an absolute joy to be there for you. And I'm delighted you're so happy. Much love to you two!! -
