about HOPE
(My VALUES)
YOU ARE SEEN + LOVED.
I fully understand that picking a photographer is no small decision. In the end, I not only want you to love your photos, but also know that you have a friend in me forever! I am here for you through the whole process.
i love my couples!
I care about what makes you — you!
Prioritizing the process to ensure you love the finished product. From beginning to end, my goal is to make sure that we're all on the same page so that I am capturing exactly what you want. Your newest bff is ready to serve you however you need ;)
I believe that your wedding day is meant to be just that- yours. Your love with your partner and your personalities should be what shines when you look back at your photos.
Photography has felt like an outlet for me for as long as I can remember. I have always loved getting to look back on my own memories and am so grateful to have them. Then, when the world seemed a little crazy in 2020, I finally decided to pick up a camera and never looked back!
Weddings quickly became my first love when a friend asked me to photograph hers. Since then I've done everything I can to make this precious experience perfect for my couples.

"Hope is incredible"
Hope photographed my wedding and was incredible! She was responsive and communicative up front, made us feel so comfortable and relaxed the day of, and was super flexible with the schedule since we weren’t sure if we were going to be able to fit in sunset photos and some other moments. Not to mention the pictures are incredible—we love them all.

"Hope was recommended to us for our civil ceremony and we couldn’t have asked for someone better. She was responsive, organized, timely, and very personable. We never felt uncomfortable or rushed during our photoshoot. She had cute tips and tricks to get just the right picture. Even her editing was amazing. We really cannot emphasize enough about how much we love our pictures and the quality, as well as working with Hope. We would use her again in a heartbeat!"

"We were lucky enough to have Hope as our engagement and wedding photographer and she could not have done a better job. As people who don’t take a lot of pictures we were apprehensive to do a photo shoot, but wanted pictures to document this time in our lives. Hope set everything up perfectly while putting us at ease and making it a fun experience, we couldn’t believe how amazing her pictures turned out. We cannot wait to use her again in the future!"
"Hope set us at ease"

"There are SO many good things that I could say about working with Hope! It was such a wonderful experience from the very beginning. We did 3 full sessions with her, an engagement session, our wedding, and then a post-wedding in the mountains...Hope went above and beyond to make sure that all these dreams came true! But what meant the most to us was that she knew we were working on a tight timeline and she turned our engagement pictures around so fast to make sure we could get our invitations out on time. This level of kindness and consideration meant so much to us in a season of chaos and busyness. Hope! You will be booking a kind, caring, talented photographer who truly is intentional about giving her clients the best possible experience <3"

"From the moment we met Hope, we knew she was the perfect photographer to capture our wedding day. Her communication style was incredibly responsive, upbeat, and comforting, which was so valuable during the stressful wedding planning process. Hope took the time to thoroughly understand our preferences and vision, then brought them to life with her high-quality, artistic photography. On the day of the wedding, Hope's calm presence was a welcome respite from the chaos, and she expertly captured all the special moments that made our celebration so unique and meaningful. We are thrilled with the final photos and would highly recommend Hope Hoggard Photo to any couple looking for an amazing wedding photography experience."
