Toby Ogden

I am Toby Ogden Photography and I photograph and film weddings, commercial, and lifestyle events. I've been a photographer and film maker for over 25 years.

Wherever I go, I have a camera in my hand to capture the moment. Tobias grew up in North County San Diego and has spent most of his life in the ocean surfing as he still does today. He started his photography career after transitioning from a professional surfer athlete to becoming an athlete marketing manager and then finally landing the job as a staff photographer with a major lifestyle brand. W

hile honing in on his technical skills Tobias was able to do a variety of photography from underwater, action, commercial and high fashion all while contributing to different magazines and websites where he has had much of his work published. His passion for photography would develop into more than a job but just a way of life. Tobias takes much pride in capturing peoples most treasured memories.

A beautiful day celebrating Lindsay and Michael at The Crossings in Carlsbad.

Every wedding is so much more than a timeline — it’s the real moments, the small glances, the laughter with family, and the feeling you never want to forget.

Honored to tell their story through images that will live on for generations.

If you’re dreaming up your day, I’d love to connect and hear your vision!

Just got the sweetest email from one of my wedding couples, and wow—it totally made my day. 🥹

Hearing how much the video meant to them and how it brought back all the emotions of their day… that’s why I do this.

Every time a client takes the time to send a kind note like that, it means the world. I put so much heart into these films, and knowing they’re truly felt on the other side is everything. ❤️🎥

Feeling extra grateful today.

Digital & Film—The Best of Both Worlds 🎞📸

There’s something special about the way film photography preserves a moment—the texture, the depth, the nostalgia. While I use digital photography to capture every detail of a wedding day with precision, I also bring along my trusty Pentax K1000 to capture a few frames in a way that feels raw, timeless, and intentional.

The Pentax K1000, once toted by Ringo Starr to document life, has stood the test of time, and I love incorporating it into wedding days. With only 36 frames per roll, every shot requires thought, patience, and a deep appreciation for the art of storytelling.

Read more about how I blend digital & film photography to create wedding galleries that are both modern and nostalgic. ✨
