He clearly has been doing this a long time, takes great pride and care in his work, he is flexible, he is fun to work with, you can trust him to capture your story the way you want him to, he knows the best angles, he gives your pics a very unique artistic flare... Now to elaborate on those reasons I'd recommend Tom Ellis...

Looking back at our wedding photos reminds me of old hollywood glamour with a twist of quirky modern...Which is exactly what we described to him when he first asked us about who we are as a couple.

I think that is most important. The trust that a photographer will understand exactly what you want. He took our love story (met swing dancing at an old ballroom in seattle. got married at that same ballroom!) and upon our request put his own modern twist into it and told our story with his pictures. It wasnt just a mere collage of gorgeous pictures.

Also, he's an expert! Or more an encyclopedia of creative photo ideas, really! He came up with almost all our best shots, so if you as a bride feel overwhelmed and don't exactly know what types of photos you want, just tell him to do his thing and it will turn out beautifully! he's a pro!!

Also, he knows all the angles to make a bride and groom look beautiful, and gave direction and managed our large wedding party so gracefully for the "party shots." Overall great quality for your money in my opinion. Hope that helps, God bless!
