Chez Tobia Productions
Overview
I've been photographing events for over 10 years, covering everything from concerts and sports games to birthdays, graduations, and small, intimate weddings. My approach is candid. I'm there to catch what's actually happening: the laugh nobody staged, the moment nobody planned. Photos come back crisp and true to life, the kind that feel like being there again instead of just looking at a photo of it.
I'm easygoing to have around too, which matters more than people think when you're trying to enjoy your own event instead of managing a photographer. Send me a message and let's talk about yours.

March 3, 2024Excellent!
Great communication, accommodating of all my kids quirky requests starting with the location ( a cemetery). Everyone felt very at ease with her even though my eldest son doesn't like having his picture taken. Beautiful shots that I can't wait to treasure for years to come! Thank you Tobia!
Hired as: Photographer, Portrait Photographer

Tobia is incredible. Talented, professional, dedicated and lovely. I loved working with her. She took great photos of our immersive whiskey experience and sent us photos very quickly. She is a delight!

May 30, 2016Chez Tobia made my birthday special!
Tobia was very professional by asking what I expected and kept in touch until the day of the event. She was not only on time but early and was very patient when my group was regrettably late. Tobia got right to work, taking a few test shots and putting my friends and I at ease. She really tried to get the best of our personalities to come through and she captured it perfectly! Everyone was impressed with her artistic treatment of the photographs and some have said they would definitely contact her for their own events. Thank you Tobia!!

About
tobiastgermain dot com
I'm a freelance photographer with experience capturing a wide range of subjects, including events, fashion, lifestyle, and product photography.
To me, great photography is about more than simply taking a picture. It's about understanding the moment, the people, and the story behind it, then capturing it in a way that feels natural, polished, and memorable.
With a background that blends both artistic and commercial photography, I bring a strong mix of technical expertise, creativity, and attention to detail to every shoot. Whether I'm documenting an event, capturing candid moments, creating portraits, or producing imagery for a brand, my goal is to deliver high-quality photos that feel authentic and thoughtfully composed.
I'm easy to work with, adaptable, and focused on ensuring clients feel comfortable throughout the process, walking away with images they're excited to share and keep.

Influences and inspiration
I am heavily influenced by music that expresses the feelings too hard to confront on my own.
I am influenced by Basquiat, Warhol and local brooklyn creatives.
