About this vendor
Bobbi Phelps is an experienced wedding photographer based in Carlisle, PA. Bobbi focuses on candid moments filled with emotion.
Memories are never exact. They're imperfect and blurry, but you can always remember how they felt. The euphoria as you two throw your fists into the air as you walk back down the aisle as a couple for the first time, the pit in your stomach as tears are rolling down your cheek while your partner dances with their grandparent, the pure joy as your friends drunkenly scream-sing Sweet Caroline to each other, and all the tiny ones you thought you wouldn't remember. These moments are yours, and your photos should tell your story perfectly.

Bobbi is BEYOND AMAZING. From our first phone call to the day of the wedding she answered any and every question I had, sent us information on timelines, recommendations on what to wear for engagement pictures, asked us detailed questions in a portal to gauge what we wanted out of our wedding photos and more. On top of the stunning photos, incredible talent and pristine editing, Bobbi is as friendly and sweet as they come. She made us feel so calm in front of the camera and truly added to our day. We had tons of compliments on how nice our photographer was and how she was always in the right place at the right time. Her assistant, Nick, was raved about as well. He hung out with the groomsmen before the wedding and all throughout pictures they were talking about how much fun they had with him. If you’re thinking about booking with Bobbi, let this be your sign. You will have the most incredible photos and experience AND get your photos back so quickly!
Bobbi was absolutely AMAZING! We can not say it enough! She has a special way of making people feel comfortable in front of the camera while capturing every emotion and all the beautiful details of the day! Thank you Bobbi, we love you!
Bobbi Phelps is an absolutely incredible wedding photographer! She did our engagement photos, which turned out beautifully, and we knew it really helped us get really comfortable with her prior to our big day. She was so easy to work with, and she took the time to get to know us and understand our vision for the day. She worked so well with us to capture every special moment, and genuinely went above and beyond what we expected. She was always there to capture the perfect shot, and we were blown away by how many incredible photos she was able to take. She made sure to capture all of the big moments, as well as the little details that we wanted to remember. We are absolutely thrilled with the photos, and we can't thank Bobbi enough for all of her hard work and for capturing our special day so perfectly. We highly recommend Bobbi Phelps to anyone in need of a talented and dedicated wedding photographer. She truly exceeded our expectations, and we are so grateful to have these beautiful photos to look back on and cherish forever.
Wedding photography was really important to me, and Bobbi exceeded every expectation. Her work is STUNNING - she captured the warmth and magic we felt throughout our entire wedding day, and we are obsessed with our gallery. While we aren't typically comfortable in front of the camera, Bobbi made us feel at ease for both our engagement shoot and throughout our wedding day. Our friends and family still refer to her by name as if she is an old friend - she is that kind and friendly.
She delivered the galleries from our engagement shoot and wedding day quickly and well within the timeline outlined in her contract. The sneak peaks from both also came super quick and were INCREDIBLE.
As someone who took a lot of time, thought and research when finding a wedding photographer, I would 100% hire Bobbi again and again and again.
WOW WOW WOW! We have no words to describe Bobbi's talent other than that. Our photos are absolutely incredible, we love every single one. From the ceremony photos to the portraits to the reception party, we feel like we are reliving every moment of the day. My husband and I are not really photo people so we were of course nervous about that aspect of the day, but Bobbi is such an incredible talent and caught the most special moments. Every time we look at our album we find a new photo that becomes our favorite.
On the personal/professional side, Bobbi was awesome to work with. She was organized, on time, and very responsive. At the wedding she was a very calming presence throughout the day, while still taking charge and getting through what she needed to. We feel she matched our energy and we really enjoyed have her around. I cannot recommend her enough for your photos. She will fulfill your every expectation and then some.
Bobbi was hands-down one of the best parts of our wedding. From our engagement shoot to wedding day, Bobbi was so communicative and helpful. She asked us specific questions about our needs, wants, and vision for the day and captured our love so authentically. 5 stars and big hugs and love to Bobbi for being the best! ♥️
Bobbi is a complete dream to work with. As an artist myself I was extremely picky when searching for the perfect wedding photographer. When I came across Bobbi’s work I knew instantly she was the one. She truly creates magic behind her lens. I love the way Bobbi captures emotions in all her photos. You can truly sense the feelings when you look at her images. She also picks up on small details of the day that makes the day so special. These small details are wrapped up in such emotion and heart.
Beyond being extremely talented she is so kind and such a joy. She also truly goes above and beyond. I was floored when I received such a beautifully designed gift from her when we first booked her and floored again meeting her for the first time while we trekked through the dunes of Montauk and she started playing a playlist full of the songs that meant the most to me and my husband while she took our photos. (The music and playlist was such a surprise and meant the world to us as avid music lovers!) She was also just so friendly, warm and easy to be around.
I’m so happy I booked Bobbi and grateful she was there to capture these special moments. I am going to cherish her photographs and work for a lifetime <3
Bobbi was absolutely incredible. We booked her for our engagement shoot in NYC and she delivered the most beautiful photos. 100% true to us. We will cherish them forever! She made us feel comfortable and was extremely personal, friendly, and professional. Had our wedding not been out west we 100000% would have had her for our wedding!
I cannot recommend Bobbi enough as a wedding photographer! from our first contact to engagement photos and finally our wedding she was amazing every step of the way. She was so accommodating and helpful, she made sure we got every shot we wanted. After our wedding we had multiple guests come up and let us know how great she was. With both our engagement and wedding photos, she made sure we had a sneak peak of our pictures the very next day and not just 1 or 2 pictures but a few from every aspect of the day, which is a great surprise!
Bobbi did the most incredible job with our photos! Her editing style makes me feel as if I'm "there" if that makes sense, it's truly timeless!
Despite it being one of the busiest years for weddings, Bobbi was also incredibly responsive and really flexible when we had to postpone our wedding from 2020.
We loved working with her!
I have never RUSHED to my computer to google how to leave a review for someone until I met Bobbi. This woman is an absolute saving grace. Last year, we were supposed to have our larger ceremony (like many other couples) and we had to cancel it due to the pandemic. Not only was Bobbi the most understanding but she even offered all of her couples a free session if they were doing something small on their same date. I was in absolute awe when I read those words on my phone screen. With this smaller ceremony, I planned it all. I was the Bride, DJ, coordinator, florist, if you can think it, I was it. And with that came tremendous stress and anxiety. Bobbi arrived the morning of the small ceremony and I was instantly at peace. She navigated all of the last minute chaos with absolute grace. Never ONCE did I feel like a hinderance. When I couldn't find my mom, she ran and got her. When my dress was dragging in the twigs, she was there picking it up for me. When I needed something from my husband, she ran to tell him. All of the things that I needed, Bobbi was. I can never thank her enough.
Flash forward to this years larger ceremony...Bobbi showed up and it felt like an old friend was there. Another quick thing to note: every wedding package you book comes with a complimentary engagement session. My husband and I never got to do that last year and were lucky enough to still do it this year. Now for most people that seems silly, but for us it was something we missed. In a year of absolute uncertainty, it was those little moments that we really yearned for. When I reached out to Bobbi about it I was reluctant. I thought, "This woman has done enough. You're already married and this seems silly." But when I reached out I was immediately met with, "Let's do it! When and where?!" And that meant the world.
Now back to this year...Bobbi showed up and took control in the best way. Keep in mind, I am an absolute control freak so please know that the fact that I felt so secure in letting go entirely is a FEAT. She adjusted the timeline as she needed in order to maximize our time together. In every photo we felt confident and most importantly we were having FUN. We never felt more comfortable in front of the camera and it was because we felt like we had a friend on the other side of the lense.
If you're on the fence with vendors or think that these prices are too high, I IMPLORE you to flash forward to your wedding day. What is it you want? Your not just paying for photos. You're paying for peace of mind, for trust and for this moment to be captured as you remember it. Bobbi offers that and so much more. I could never thank her enough. Now, book book book & happy trails!
I don’t think there’s any one word that could describe how amazing Bobbi was on our wedding day! She went above and beyond and made sure to capture every possible moment throughout our day, she truly made it special for not only us but our guests as well. We now have beautiful pictures to look back on thanks to her!!
Bobbi went above and beyond our expectations. I came across her work on a bride group on Facebook and I was in awe. She’s based a few hours from me so normally I wouldn’t choose a vendor that far but I knew when I saw her work that we needed her to photograph our wedding. We ended up booking her for our wedding (not until next April) but we just had our engagement photoshoot with her last week and we had the BEST time! She made it so fun and she really thought of everything - from having some music on that we both like to being thorough and telling me when to fix my necklace if the chain turned. She also got there early to scope out good places for our pictures which was nice. My fiancé and I figured it was going to be an awkward experience but it really felt like we were just hanging out with a friend! She delivered our full pictures quickly and sneak peaks in less than 24 hours and they all turned out AMAZING. We seriously feel like models. Now comes the difficult decision of which one to put on our save the dates LOL
Bobbi was an absolute pleasure to work with! She made our engagement shoot so much fun and she sent us a sneak peak of the photos that evening! Our wedding day had so many beautiful details and Bobbi captured them perfectly! She was so sweet, organized and fun to work with. So many of our vendors and bridal party members even came and said how much they loved her. Our wedding photos are breathtaking and will be treasured for many years to come! Throughout the wedding process, Bobbi was there to answer questions about photos or just other wedding details too! She has a lot of knowledge and experience and couldn't be happier with our choice!
Bobbi was absolutely amazing to work with. We went through two postponements together and when our wedding day finally came she did not disappoint. She is extremely welcoming and makes you feel comfortable immediately. She captured so many great moments throughout the entire day. She is extremely talented. I knew immediately that I could put my trust in her 100% during our wedding. I could not thank her enough and look forward to working with her in the future!
I wish there were more than five star ratings to give because Bobbi deserves a million stars!!!!! She was PHENOMENAL and more than we could have ever asked for in a photographer for our wedding! She made us feel comfortable all day with pictures, had tons of great photo ideas, and did it all by herself! She captured everything we wanted and even more than we could have hoped for! She was such a fun person to be around all day- I even hugged her throughout the night because she felt like that old friend who always has your back. She is sweet, real, and a genuinely great person who loves what she does and it shows! I had no doubts that she could take insanely magical pictures, but when she sent us a few sneak peeks later in the evening after the wedding, we were just blown away! If you are looking for a perfect photographer, then Bobbi is the one for you! We cannot thank her enough for capturing the beautiful moments and making it our best day ever!!!
The most amazing photography session we have ever had! Bobbi made us feel comfortable, natural, and just really a memorable experience. Even though she had only met my fiancé for the first time that day, she got the most natural pictures and managed to capture both of our personalities in them! I loved having such a quick turnaround on the pictures as well! We can’t wait for Bobbi to take pictures on our wedding day!!!
Bobbi is absolutely terrific in every way! She makes you feel so comfortable and relaxed even if you're entirely new to having photos taken, and works with you each step of the way to make sure you leave with the best possible photos. When my fiance and I first got engaged, literally the first decision we made was to have Bobbi as our photographer - and our engagement pictures turned out so incredible, we can't wait to see her shots of the wedding day! The gallery was also massive, so we have TONS of great options to choose from - and the edited sneak peek photos of our shoot were sent over less than 3 hours after we got home which made us SO excited!
We picked Bobbi for our wedding next year because we trusted her experience and our vision for our church wedding! After talking to Bobbi and meeting her for the first time, we are 100 % so ecstatic with our decision. She took engagement photos of us and not only did they turn out amazing, but Bobbi made the whole shoot fun. She helped me surprise my Fiancé during the photoshoot and I am so happy we have that moment to look back on!!
I can’t wait for June!
Bobbi was FANTASTIC! she really took the time to get everything the bride and groom wanted! getting the sparkler shots aren't always easy, but she gave great instructions and made all the guest feel like they were included! great job!!
I was attracted to working with Bobbi initially because of her style and I thought she captured feeling really well. She was quick to reply and provided helpful tips in preparation for our engagement session. During the session, she had a light and cheerful demeanor and made us feel so comfortable. She also got us our photos back within hours!!! We were thrilled with what she sent us and felt she really captured our love and light-hearted dynamic. We could not be more excited for Bobbi to shoot our wedding later this year! She also has the most adorable golden retriever!
Where to even begin. Bobbi is an absolutely amazing photographer and person all around. She was punctual to the shoot, made me fiancé and I feel comfortable in front of the camera, and made the whole experience so much fun. We had tons of laughs because of her which made for very genuine pictures. Bobbi was accommodating to where we wanted pictures taken and all of our needs.
Within hours she had sneak peaks for us to enjoy. She also had the full album to us in no time. The photographs were phenomenal and we love them! I cannot wait for her to shoot our wedding day because I know the photographs will be absolutely perfect. If anyone is in need of a photographer, she’s your girl.
I’m so thankful I found Bobbi and was able to secure her for our wedding day. She was a delight to work with for the whole process.
We received a beautiful engagement shoot and our wedding photos were absolutely stunning: so much so that people remarked they could be featured in The Knot magazine.
She has an amazing personality, which set everyone at ease. We did not request a second photographer, and we didn’t need one: Bobbi got all the shots.
I was so impressed by her. Our big day was well documented and I could not be happier. Her work speaks for itself. You will not be disappointed.
I’m so glad that I chose Bobbi Phelps as my wedding day photographer. Bobbi is so chill and sweet! I feel like got to know her before the wedding day through her Instagram stories, which are a mix of her personal life and work (and her dog!!) My husband and I were very comfortable being photographed and Bobbi took such beautiful pictures of the whole day. We love them so much!
3500 characters is not enough for me to tell you why you need to hire Bobbi Phelps right this very second to be your photographer.
My fiance' (now husband) and I are so incredibly awkward in front of the camera. You know all of the amazing wedding shots you see in Instagram? I so badly wanted to feel and look that amazing on my wedding day, but just didn't think it would happen, if only because you put a camera in front of my face and the strangest expressions appear.
Bobbi created pictures for us that will last a lifetime. I look at them, and I cry, because she made the day so incredible, she made the pictures look so incredibly, and she made us feel so unbelievable.
She jokes around with you to make you feel at ease and comfortable. She has the magical ability to make your true selves come out, even with the camera there.
During my wedding day, I spent some of the most intimate moments of my life with Bobbi, and to say that she was an absolute all-star, is the under statement of the year.
She captured the perfect shots, her editing is beautiful, and she also managed to get pictures of us with every.single.guest. Don't ask me how she did it.
She blew us away. She is priced SO reasonably, but to be honest, I would have paid 3x the amount she asks.
She made the most amazing day of our lives even more amazing, and I could not be more grateful.
Bobbi is the most amazing photographer I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with! I honestly am having such a hard time writing this review because I know that no matter what I say, it won’t do her justice. Her talent, professionalism, and energy are unmatched! She shot our wedding (176 guests) solo, and executed it so flawlessly! I’m still getting compliments from my guests saying “how did she manage your wedding alone” “she’s so young she’s going to have a big future” “she was EVERYWHERE”!!! But I do have to say, my favorite part about Bobbi is that you can just tell that she is so passionate about capturing the essence of your relationship rather than just ‘getting the good shot’.
I’m so happy that the knot lead me to finding Bobbi! Sean and I picked our wedding date 6 months out, so we were crunched for time with finding vendors. I reached out to so many people that were already booked, and let me tell you.. I’m SO glad that they were! They all seemed wonderful, but the experience I had after choosing Bobbi was nothing short of incredible!!! She takes care of you from the start and makes you feel like you’re her only clients.
Bobbi, you’re amazing, we love you!! Thank you for EVERYTHING!
Where to begin with this woman? Bobbi is absolutely 10000% amazing, the best and sweetest photographer. I came across her work from The Knot and seriously was the best desicion. She is professional without coming across as overly stuffy or unpersonable. She’s relatable, real, and an amazing photographer. We booked her for our engagement photos and instantly knew we were in good hands. Our engagement photos came out phenomenal and she was willing to explore the city and try new locations with us. Then came our wedding day, which the heavens unleashed and rained like crazy. She came in good spirits and captured incredible moments for us. The photos are moody, sultry and stunning. She captured the moment without letting the rain get in the way, people can barely tell what a down pour we had.
Also, her turn around time is excellent. My family loved her work and loved her as well, no one has anything but amazing things to say. Thank you, Bobbi!
Bobbi was absolutely amazing to work with! We had a few mishaps during our wedding day but Bobbi was calm and collected and helped us to make the best of our day. I am so thankful we went with Bobbi because our sneak peaks are to die for, I cannot wait to see the rest of our pictures. She is just overall a great person and I am so happy with her services! 10/10 would recommend!
There isn’t enough room in this review to share how absolutely wonderful Bobbi is! I am simply amazed at her talent, creative skill, and upbeat personality. Bobbi was able to capture the most important day of our lives in such a way, that I’ll never forget a single moment of our day! So many people reached out to me afterwards to tell me how impressed they were with her. From her ability to be everywhere in the room, to making sure that she caught the most special moments, and even that she took the time to interact with the guests and to go out of her way to make them feel comfortable in photos. I cannot thank her enough for the superior quality of our photos and for her genuine kindness. I’d rate her ten stars if I could, because five is not enough!
After stalking instagram for SEVERAL hours I stumbled across some of Bobbi's pictures and fell in love! I loved her ability to capture multiple styles and I could tell all her pictures were personal and properly showcased those in them. I was worried before our engagement shoot because of recent rain at our location but the photos still turned out amazing and Bobbi did everything she could to get the perfect angle. Even in lots of mud on an overcast day. My fiancé and I were nervous about being in the spotlight, but she made us feel very comfortable and got shots that genuinely represented who we are (silly faces and all). We cannot wait to have her capture our wedding in May! And just like I do with our engagement photos, I look forward to looking at our wedding photos everyday in the future. You will not be disappointed in choosing Bobbi as your photographer!!
I knew Bobbi was going to do a good job on our engagement pictures going into the session since she has such an impressive portfolio, but when I got the pictures back I was totally blown away!!!! The lighting, poses, and colors were perfect and she captured our personalities and interactions so well. I honestly started tearing up when I first saw them and had to take a minute before continuing because they were so amazing. We also have her booked for our wedding day and it's very relaxing to know that we have such a great photographer on our team! Would 100% definitely recommend!!
In the land of infinite wedding vendors, stop what you're doing & look no further. While Bobbi is newer to the scene of wedding photography, do not let that deter you from hiring her. She is very professional, gave great direction at our engagement shoot, made our shoot fun (isn't that the whole point anyways?) and sent us a sneak peek that very same night. I know the whole "light & airy" photography may be "in" right now, but it's not forever. Bobbi Phelps photographs are classically beautiful, and will be treasured for years to come. Book her TODAY.
If I could give 6 stars I would. This girl is a master of her craft. We booked her with 4 months until the wedding and we were stressing like crazy. She was extremely patient, helpful and understanding of the fact that we were super busy planning everything and was not pushy in the slightest. She makes everything very easy on you throughout the process. On the day of the wedding, she was super chill and really just wanted us to be happy. Her skill is UNBELIEVABLE- not to mention her services are super affordable compared to a lot of big name photographers whose pictures are no better quality than Bobbi's. Everyone thought she was so adorable and sweet and I know all of our wedding party really enjoyed working with her. Her style is just absolutely awesome and I don't see how anyone would be unhappy with having her as a photographer for any occasion. I highly, highly recommend and fully plan on having her take pictures for every big event in my life :)
Bobbi provided a fantastic experience for my wife and I during our wedding. Between picking the most scenic venues and capturing our most priceless moments (staged & candid) we were amazed. Having known Bobbi for many years, I can vouch for her professionalism and superb ability. We can't recommend her enough!
Bobbi was such a wonderful choice. Her style was exactly what I wanted and she delivered 10-fold. Every time she updated us with more pictures I cried over ho amazingly beautiful they were.
Thank you, Bobbi, for taking care of us for our engagement shoot. We cannot wait to work with you again!
Bobbi stepped in as a second photographer for a wedding I shot this past April. She was wonderful to get to know. She is kind with a sense of humor. She has a way of making others feel comfortable which is super important on a wedding day! Since I have personally opted to no longer shoot weddings, I feel 100% comfortable sending any inquiries to her!
Bobbi has recently done our engagement photos and they turned out amazing. She was great at giving us direction since this was both of our first times getting professional pictures. I would 100% recommend her. I cannot wait until she does our wedding!
Bobbi is one of the best photographers! She’s so fun, loves getting to know who she’s taking pictures of, and she captures every moment flawlessly. I was a guest at a wedding and seeing how hard she was working the whole time, taking pictures of not just the bride but spending time taking pictures of all the guests was impressive. When I saw her pictures of the wedding I couldn’t believe how much emotion she captures from that day. It was almost as if she bottled up those feelings with her pictures. She has such amazing work!!!
Bobbi is very talented and was so patience with our dogs at our engagement shoot. She was funny and made our session run smooth. She captures all the feels and emotions. I highly recommend her!
The pictures speak for themselves, they are stunning. The part that you don't know, but will soon discover is that the photographer is amazing. She is kind, reliable and professional. She is a creative mastermind and you will not regret hiring her!
Bobbi exceeded all expectations for our wedding photos. She really captured the essence of our intimate wedding and was able to make the experience super easy and straight forward for us. She made us feel very comfortable, got the gorgeous photos to us very fast, and was such a pleasure to work with! Highly recommend!
She is so kind and a great photographer i gave her no directions cause i wanted to just have her decide and she did just that she let me just relax and do as she wanted and it was AMAZING my pictures are perfect and she will.do anything to get that perfect shot
Bobbi is a young and energetic photographer and her passion for capturing these special moments is evident in every shot. The experience is fun and natural. She has the ability to capture an action that may seem silly while doing it, but results in the most incredible image illustrating true happiness and love. We just did our engagement shoot and had the photos back in two days with full digital access for downloads and a direct link to a lab to make ordering prints easy! We cannot wait for her to photograph our wedding!
Bobbi did an absolutely beautiful job with my sister’s wedding. The photos were breathtaking! She has such a creative eye and captured shots that are truly unique!
