My wife and I had an ambitious and complicated wedding plan: a one hundred thirty-guest, multicultural (Hindu/Jewish) destination wedding with two separate ceremonies and lunch, cocktails, and dinner. Not only was Cole more than up to the challenge of capturing our wedding, he was able to make everything easier, smoother, and more efficient, helping us be fully present on our big day and helping guide us on our journey there.From the first time we contacted him, Cole was incredibly kind and helpful. Aside from being an amazing photographer, he is also a highly respected and connected member of the Calgary wedding industry. He helped point us to other vendors offered us tips on how to navigate the ones we had already hired.Our engagement shoot with Cole sealed the deal, and we booked him for our wedding not long after. When our wedding day came, Cole turned it up to eleven. He was completely unobtrusive - I don’t recall seeing him during either of our ceremonies, but stepped in immediately when needed to round up our families once it was time to take photos. Just like on our engagement shoot, Cole found some gorgeous backgrounds for our photos. With his help, we ran ahead of schedule, even with our tight windows for group photos. Cole even has an amazing trick to get babies to smile at the camera - it works on adults just as well!Most amazingly, Cole delivered a huge set of stunning pictures within a week of our wedding. I would never have believed my wedding could have looked so beautiful, and I only believe it because I was there! More...

Absolute pleasure working with Cole through our Engagement and wedding experience. We had a last minute weather bomb hit Canmore on our wedding day. Cole had backup plans already scouted and went above and beyond to reassure us the weather was only going to add to our experience. He was correct. The photos are spectacular and we could not be more pleased. 5 Stars. More...

Cole photographed our wedding in Lethbridge on November 2nd and he was an absolute pleasure to work with! Not only is he an absolute master of his craft, but he also kept things fun and light the whole time. He brought amazing ideas for shots and provided us direction, which we definitely needed as a couple. Cole’s personality kept us laughing and smiling the whole day. We couldn’t be happier with our choice in a photographer and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for someone to capture their wedding. 10/10 - Chris and Karlyn More...

Cole is the BEST wedding decision I made (aside from marrying my husband)! We eloped without friends or family, so having great photos to share was incredibly important. I don't have words to describe how blown away we've been by Cole's work. My husband and I are not super comfortable being photographed, but Cole immediately felt like a friend and we had so much fun with him. He captured the emotion of the day perfectly, and was willing to literally lie in the dirt to get the best shot. He planned ahead and fit so many amazing moments into a 2 hour shoot. We've gotten endless compliments on our photos--I've lost track of how many times I've heard "These look like they should be in a magazine!" Cole is a beautiful artist, wonderful person, and an absolute professional. If you need a photographer, just book him and don't look back. You'll be so glad you did. More...

If you are searching for a wedding photographer, look no further. We cannot stress enough what an amazing experience Cole provided for us. From our initial meet and greet over a beer, to engagement photos, our wedding day, and beyond - Cole was responsive, attentive, professional, and above all, fun! He'll immediately put you at ease and joke that he can get all the best angles being a head taller than the crowd. All of our wedding guests kept asking how we met Cole, as many assumed he was a long-time friend of ours due to how he interacted with our guests. I have never seen a photographer get so low to the ground on "shake" that he was dancing on his back... cameras and all! This guy just doesn't run out of energy. My family loved him so much we tried to book him again for my brother's wedding, but he was already in high demand. After the wedding, Cole gave us a handful of sneak peek photos the next day, and had all of our photos to us within three months. There were so many amazing shots it took me FOREVER to go through them all. It's impossible to choose! What I liked the best after our wedding was the incredible candid shots Cole was able to get of our friends and family... those are truly the pictures we will cherish forever. Thank you Cole!

He shot both of our wedding and engagement photos. The pictures turned out absolutely amazing! Both my wife and I hate having our picture taken and he made it easy and dare I say fun. During the wedding day he was a calming force, helping us to stay on track and removing stress. He was highly efficient, able to get a six hour session out of two hours. I give him the highest praise. There is literally no one else I would trust for such an important day in my life. More...

Hiring Cole to take our wedding and engagement photos was easily one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. In addition to taking absolutely stunning pictures, Cole was a complete professional, very easygoing, and just so much fun to work with. We're both kind of nervous around cameras, and my husband was especially dreading the process, but Cole joked around with us and helped us relax, which not only made for some beautiful and unique photos, but we even ended up thoroughly enjoying ourselves. Our portraits with our numerous large groups of family and friends went off without a hitch, thanks largely to his efficiency and patience working with everyone. I also never had to worry about him getting back to us, as he returned all our messages promptly and without fail. Cole is a complete gem and we would 100% recommend him to anyone and would work with him again! More...

Cole made the day Having little experience with wedding planning and all that goes with it, my wife and I were totally overwhelmed and really had no idea what we wanted. We googled questions to ask photographers, looked at countless albums, and finally booked a meeting with Cole. After 5 minutes of chatting with him, there was no doubt that he was the perfect choice. His approachable attitude made it easy to talk to him and we were blown away with his professionalism. Before we even had a chance to look down at our questions, he had patiently walked us through his working style, put all of our worries to rest, and gotten us incredibly excited about our wedding pictures to come. During the engagement shoot, we were able to see Cole in action and we definitely not disappointing. We had described what we were looking for, and he helped us choose the perfect location. Despite the freezing weather, we had a great time running around in the snow, laughing, and taking pictures (which was surprising because I normally hate having pictures taken). On the day of our wedding, Cole was a rockstar from he showed up in the morning. He helped to calm both of our wedding day nerves and his ability to wrangle all of our parties took a huge weight off our shoulders. Whether it was setting up fun, amazing group shots or sneakily stealing us away for some romantic, intimate ones, Cole helped us make the most of our wedding day. Even during the dinner, the guests at his table couldn't stop raving about how amazing he was. On top of being a blast at the wedding, Cole was one of the first emails in our inbox the next day, wishing us congratulations and giving us a preview of some of the most beautiful shots you could imagine. In just those few preview shots that he shared, he captured everything we could have imagined and more. Needless to say, there were a few happy tears as we went through those pictures. Looking back on the wedding, we were lucky and most of our vendors did an great. That being said, there was no one there (even counting our maid of honor/best man) who was able to anticipate our needs, fix problems before we saw them, and put our minds to ease, more than Cole. @Cole- If you see this, you were truly the highlight of our wedding and our entire wedding party will be calling you when they get married. :) More...

Cole was such a huge part in making our big day a success. His fun, friendly and outgoing personality makes everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. He loves what he does and this is apparent in the way he runs his business. Cole arrived early, scoped out potential locations, and helped us stay on track of time. He ensured we got all the shots that were important to us. He is willing to go the extra mile in order to get that "picture perfect" moment.

Cole Hofstra has done a number of our friends weddings now - and I am constantly blown away at the energy he brings to the events and the passion he puts into his photos. We all love the mountains, and he genuinely brings to life not only the couples he is taking photos of, but also the backdrop where the photos are being taken.

For our engagement session we went on a hike, and his eye for when to take a shot is incredible. Photos while we were just wandering along ended up being some of my favorites. Though the epic vistas are totally worth it too. We had an absolute blast together, but I think what makes Cole so great at the mountain photos is how truly happy he is while wandering along the path himself.

When it came to our wedding, I realized just how hard he works. Somehow always being professional, but also able to kick back, relax and enjoy the party too. He had pre-selected a bunch of sites he thought would fit us well. Which was very helpful when it ended up raining on our wedding day (which was in winter... so very unexpected) and we had to make a bunch of last minute changes on photo sites. We were driving along and the rain stopped - so he immediately kicked in a back-up plan and we pulled over to an absolutely stunning spot he knew of and took advantage of the moments it was clear to capture photos I am totally thrilled with.

Would certainly recommend Cole - having a photographer who is fun, but also puts forth a great product is worth every penny.

Cole was an amazing photographer! My husband and I got the pleasure of doing our engagement and wedding photos with Cole. The first time we met I knew that this was the person I wanted to photograph the most important day of our lives . Both my husband and I were slightly nervous about getting our photos taken but Cole made it so easy! He made us laugh and feel so comfortable while telling us silly jokes and singing. This made the photos looks amazing with natural smiles. We got married at Heritage Park and there were lots of different options and locations for photos. Cole has a very creative imagination and was able to think of the perfect spots in the park to get the most amazing photos! We would highly recommended Cole to anyone looking for a photographer.

After searching for days for a good wedding photographer, I stumbled across Cole's website. As soon as I saw some of his photos, I knew he was the perfect photographer for us. He had that free spirited, adventurous indie flare that I was looking for, and it connected instantly with me. I got really excited to hire him, and immediately emailed and asked for packages and prices. He emailed back quickly, and was very accomadating when I explained to him that we are on a budget.
After emailing back and forth for months, we finally got to meet him the week before the wedding. His easy-going, fun personality made the meeting less intimidating, and more like grabbing coffee with a friend. He pays attention to what you want, and ensuring that he doesn't miss any important details.
On the day, he made everyone laugh and feel comfortable, and just had fun the entire time while being professional. He joined in on the dance floor, conversed with my guests, and took the best photos of things I didn't even think of. The sample photos that he sent us that night made us cry and laugh, and I turned to my husband and said, "he's worth every penny."
Overall, the quality of his photos is unbeatable, and his personality makes the experience even better. He's a great guy, and a truly wonderful photographer.
I can't wait to see the rest of the photos!

Cole Hofstra is a magnificent photographer. We were fortunate enough to book Cole for both our engagement and wedding photos. During the engagement shoot we learned that, as Cole puts it, he simply loves love. Working with him, this sentiment really shines through. His photos captured all of the love, joy and warmth we felt on our wedding day, not to mention all the fun we had. Cole has the perfect mix of enthusiasm, professionalism, and humour, putting everyone at ease when they know the camera is focused on them which is no small feat. He just seemed to know all the right times for either encouraging people to keep hamming it up or when to step back and let the quiet moments play out, resulting in beautiful, candid shots. His level of experience really shone through when our day kept switching between rain and sunshine. While his style is relaxed and fun, his mind is 100% on task, quickly shifting directions to take advantage of a momentary sunbeam, noticing when a groomsman has his umbrella blocking a bridesmaid, or capturing your little nephew doing something adorable. Cole was amazing at taking our zany idea of going climbing and turning it into the most wonderful shots. Even while suspended several metres off the ground, Cole was still making us laugh and providing directions to make sure we looked beautiful and were having fun. This is stating the obvious but any wedding is a once in a lifetime event, so no do-overs on the photos; and is full of very intimate and personal moments. Who your photographer is matters as they will be part of all those moments and they have a big responsibility to capture them. Cole is an outstanding photographer and just a wonderful person to be around. Having him capture our wedding was the best decision we made. I cannot recommend Cole enough! More...

This was especially evident at the reception when Cole seamlessly fit into the party, camera in tow.We absolutely love our sneak peaks which we received early the following day and cannot wait to see the rest of the photos. Cole was an absolute pleasure to have as our wedding day photographer! More...

Cole was the first photographer that we met, and right away Daniel and I knew he was the one (cliche, no?). When Daniel and I met Cole for our engagement photos, we had no clue what we were doing. We were not ourselves and just felt silly the entire time. Cole instantly put us ease, telling us pretty lame but awesome jokes, and guiding us throughout the evening. I was hesitant that any photo would turn out okay, but was blown away with his skills to make us awkward folk actually look good. When he showed up into our room on our wedding day, singing and dancing, he made me feel that much more relaxed. He took us to a stunning picturesque spot in Canmore for photos, guided us, but also just let us be in the moment. You almost forget that he’s your photographer because he just seems like a friend. He fit in with everyone, and is up for anything. Cole is such an easy-going guy, but is so incredible at what he does. He has an eye for the beauty in the small things, and can capture intense emotions and feelings in the photographs that he takes. He continues to amaze me with his photos, and I can’t wait to see the finished ones from our day! More...

Cole was our photographer for our wedding a month ago and I am still absolutely blown away! Cole's photos always look amazing and I was so excited to have Cole do our engagement photos and our wedding photos! I am even more happy after the wedding, even after only seeing a couple of photos. My husband is not a person who does not love to have his photo taken but Cole was able to make him, and many other people, comfortable enough to take candid and fun photos of! Cole was able to find the most beautiful spaces in the spots that we were unsure of. Throughout the entire day it felt as though Cole was our friend and having a good time with us rather than our photographer who was there to take some pictures and then get out. Many times throughout the night, and in the month after the wedding, our guests have told us home much they loved our photographer because he was so much fun and still captured fun and beautiful photos! Cole is a fun and professional person who loves what he does! I would recommend him again and again! More...

Cole was our photographer at our wedding in February 2018 in Banff. He really captured our wedding perfectly and our photographs are gorgeous. Cole has a wonderful personality and is a talented photographer. I found Cole through reading reviews online and I am glad I chose him to be our photographer. He communicated with us very well and arrived to our location very early on our wedding day to scout out the area. It had snowed overnight and he found several beautiful scenic locations. Several of our guests and family commented on how wonderful Cole is and we enjoyed having him at our wedding. The photos we have seen so far, are just amazing and elegant. I could not be happier! Thank you Cole so much for these special memories, I will cherish them forever. More...
