Penn State Photography
Celebrating Penn State's legacy through fine art photography. We capture iconic landmarks like Old Main and the historic elm trees with fresh perspectives.

Relaxed, personalized sessions that document your unique relationship. These sessions build rapport before the wedding day while creating versatile images for save-the-dates, websites, and displays.

From the first phone call with Bob, we knew he was the photographer for our wedding. On our very first phone call before we even confirmed hiring him, Bob helped me plan the entire day by working with me to create our timeline. This showed us that he really cared about making sure our day was perfect. Our original wedding date was planned for the summer of 2020, Bob stuck by our side through 3 date changes and even a venue change.
When it came time to finally capture our wedding day, Bob was so professional and payed close attention to details. He met us at our desired photo location and was so patient and organized. He knew exactly how to pose everybody. Bob sent us our sneak peek of 70 photos 5 days after our wedding! They are beautiful and will bring us a lifetime of smiles!

Bob Lambert and Mike Pazmino shot the photos for our wedding, and we couldn't be happier with how they did. From our first phone call, we knew we were in good hands - for example, Bob had a Plan B for everything in case of bad weather. Regardless, everything turned out beautifully and we would absolutely recommend Bob and his team to everyone! We are forever grateful!

Bob was a professional during our entire wedding experience, even when some of our vendors really dropped the ball. And most importantly, his photographs were amazing and really captured our day. Highly recommend.
