I'm SO glad you're here! I'm Abby, a photographer born and raised in the heart of the Finger Lakes (and will never let anyone forget it- proud Keuka girl for life!) currently living in Rochester, NY.

What can I possibly express with words alone about Abby Arnold and her team? Abby is an exceptional human being and professional. She feels simultaneously like an unknowable entity and a long time friend or family member. She makes her clients feel extremely comfortable while also being so well-organized and accommodating. She has excellent artistic direction. I barely had to do anything, and when I look at my photos I feel like I don't know myself. I have never looked so beautiful, I didn't know I could even take pictures like this! She and her team worked overtime to make all my dreams come true, and I will be forever grateful for their hard work and dedication. These photos of my family and friends, who are from all over the country, finally all together in one place, will be cherished for the rest of my life. I would hire Abby and her team a million zillion times over, and I think you should too. Give her the opportunity to read your late night emails with all your pinterest inspiration attached. Allow her to soothe your anxieties about not looking tall enough or not knowing how to pose. Watch in awe as she wrangles your unpredictable family members into one beautiful photo you will value for the rest of your days. She is amazingly talented and a great person to be around in general. I will be forever thankful!

Hey there! I got our USB! This is the coolest USB I’ve ever seen! Thank you so much! I wanted to reach out again to tell you that you and Jed are two of the most amazing people I’ve ever met. From the moment you messaged me on Facebook, you’ve been one of the most genuinely kind people I’ve ever had the pleasure to meet and I’m so thankful that I got the pleasure to have you photograph such a milestone in Greg and I’s lifetime. You both were incredibly patient and intuitive to our feelings and needs during the wedding which surpassed any expectations I could have set for a photographer. It’s apparent that you both genuinely love what you do and you both put your entire soul into each client(s) you take on. I received so many compliments from my guests regarding how professional you both were as well. I can’t begin to describe how beautiful these photos are. You put life into all of my visions for the wedding and made them into such pieces of art. Thank you again for not only providing us with great customer service and beautiful photos, but being truly wonderful people.

I started working as a photographer because I'm passionate about helping people showcase who they are and what they have to offer. I work to remove myself from the equation and let my clients take the spotlight. It's thrilling to jump into a session and come out on the other side having learned beautiful new things about a person. When behind the camera I'm coaching you ever step of the way - helping you feel comfortable enough to let your true self emerge.

Hi I'm Hannah and I'm from tiny fishing village in Cornwall, England but moved here to North Carolina in 2017. Fun fact, they actually filmed some of scenes for the Game of Thrones spin off, House of the dragon there! It's hard to pick favorites but if your wedding includes a dog in the bridal party, a dress with pockets and the cupid shuffle....COUNT ME IN! Among my never-ending list of dream sessions is of course a wedding at Disneyworld and the ultimate outdoorsy engagement session with the wild horses at Shackleford Banks. Don't be surprised when I ask you to add me to your pinterest boards so I can fangirl over your wedding plans.

Hey there, I'm Jordany Almonte, but you can call me "Jordan" – a friendly guy based in the state of New Jersey with a passion for life and a big heart for family. I take immense pride in being a devoted husband and a proud father; they are the driving force behind everything I do. To me, photography is more than just capturing images; it's a way of feeling, touching, and loving the world around me. What I capture in the film holds the essence of the moment, preserving memories that we can cherish forever. Those little things, often overlooked, can bring floods of emotions long after our other memories have faded.

From the moment we reached out to The Hobbyist Studio, their communication was excellent and highly professional. They were a pleasure to work with, and their expertise and passion for their craft was evident in the stunning photos they captured of our wedding day. The Hobbyist Studio truly went above and beyond, ensuring they documented every special moment seamlessly.

Hello, I'm Margaret. It's so nice to have you. I love to see love & take pictures. Perfect match to be an engagement and wedding photographer. I'm a lover of fine art and candid moments. My editing style is filled with true color photography to bring your photos to life.

Awarded Best of Zola
I seriously can’t put into words how amazing she was and cannot recommend her enough. She was great to have around on our wedding day and I am so happy with our photos. The groomsmen didn't have their act together, even though she provides a detailed schedule, and she was totally chill about it and was like no biggie I'll be back in 30. My fiancé commented on how awesome she was (didn't comment on any other vendors) and one of his groomsmen did too (see first pic). This was before we even saw the pics and they turned out better than I could have imagined. At one point I told her I was done taking pics I wanted to go talked to people and dance, so was a little worried if we got enough shots, but was blown away with the results. I also told her I didn't care that much about getting ready pics but wanted a lot of guest candids and she delivered. She also got way more getting ready pics than I even expected. We didn't want to spend money on a second photographer and she was fine with that and got all the pics we wanted on her own. She truly listened to what we wanted and was incredible at communication and organization. On top of that, she is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met, and truly a calming presence during all of the chaos on wedding day. I feel sooo lucky we found her.

One of the most important aspects of a photo is the emotion it conveys. While I have years of training and experience, photographing love cannot be reduced to lighting and angles. ​ Well before your special day. I hear my client's love story. This helps me create eye-catching images that portray the kind of affection that is unique to each couple. I pride myself in being a storyteller-photographer.

Anj did our surprise proposal, engagement shoot, and wedding and we couldn’t be happier with how it turned out and the experience it was working with her! She had no problem traveling to our destinations (nyc and Boston area) and was on time and professional. She was wonderful working with special requests to craft a perfect experience. You can tell she really enjoys her job which made it really fun for us and allowed us to soak up some of our biggest moments. I highly recommend working with her as she will make you feel comfortable, craft your event to your liking, and execute the product beautifully!

I pride myself on being able to work with couples of all backgrounds and cultures. I am outgoing, energetic and have a true passion for documenting your day. Each wedding tells a unique story and it is my job to tell your story. I have been photographing weddings for over 6 years . Prior to that I worked weddings as a 2nd photographer and an assistant to several regional photographers. I felt that by working with several different companies I was able to gather experience from several perspectives. I shoot with the Nikon series of cameras and Lens. During the "off season" you can catch me photographing local High school sporting events.

Cassie was a treasure to work with! She made me feel so comfortable! She makes you feel like you’ve been friends your entire life. I never like getting my photos done, and I thought about not getting any photos for my wedding, but I knew I might regret that decision later in life. She made me feel excited to be getting them done! She gave great recommendations and ideas for our photos and they turned out beautifully! My favorite picture was taken at night and the way she set up the cameras with the lighting - it was just gorgeous. Highly recommend her and her services!
