    Engagement shoot

    I had my engagement shoot with Tom this weekend and I can definitely say I was impressed. Tom had very clear communication since the beginning and is open to your own ideas. We went to Pasadena City Hall and he knew every spot with great photo options. He also sent us all of our pictures back within just 2 days of the shoot.

    Scenes from a movie

    Tom captured photos so beautiful that they take me back that moment in time when I look at them. I highly recommend him! He’s very kind and made everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera.

    Look No Further!

    Tom was absolutely amazing! Not only did he have the best energy and a great sense of humor, but he was also incredibly nice to work with. It was evident that he knew exactly what he was doing, and his expertise showed in the stunning photos we received.

    Our pictures turned out beyond awesome; they captured every special moment beautifully. His direction during the photoshoots ensured that we got the best shots possible, and he made us feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the day.

    I couldn't have asked for a better photographer to capture our wedding memories. If you're looking for someone talented, fun, and professional, look no further! Thank you for your fantastic work and for giving us photos we'll cherish forever.

    Hire Tom Keene now

    From the first click to the last, Tom was nothing short of extraordinary. His ability to capture the essence of our special day was truly remarkable. The diligence he showed in documenting each intimate moment, with natural lighting and professional angles, made our photos look spectacular.

    Tom kept our minds at ease amidst the whirlwind of the day. He arrived early, stayed until we were satisfied, took countless pictures, and he was able to phase in and out of his photographer-friend zone, journalizing the day unobtrusively. We were pleasantly surprised to see ourselves in the candid shots. It’s a testament to his skill and professionalism that he could blend into the background seamlessly, yet not miss a single important moment.

    We are beyond grateful for the memories Tom has provided us, memories that we will cherish for a lifetime. Thank you, Tom, for immortalizing our special day with your lens.

    Dual Events!

    Tom was patient, kind, and professional. He was with us for two separate events: a court ceremony and a reception party. As the bride, I was overwhelmed. He helped come up with ideas for shots and was quick to respond to impromptu requests. Overall. the pictures tell a beautiful story of both our events.

    5/5 Compassionate, empathetic, professional, top notch

    Working with Tom Keene for our wedding photography was like having a BEST friend behind the lens. And Tom IS a professional photographer friend. Trust Tom, don't trust your-amateur-friend-behind-the-camera-friend to take the same pro quality shots. Let your amateur down gently: you can tell them, "thanks for offering but we hired someone, friend." From the start, he was communicative and able to work with our budget.

    Tom captured our family moments and the ceremony by the Pasadena City Hall fountain with familiarity and ease. We gave him a shotlist and he knew exactly what we were trying to do and lent his professional skills toward our vision. This is so crucial because we felt like we were actually collaborating together. The pacing of his work was perfect, never rushed, yet efficient.

    His experience, particularly at Pasadena City Hall, was evident as he guided us through various beautiful shots, from playful bubble photos to elegant poses with a Porsche. He knew the place, the lighting, the timing, and the passerby behavior like the back of his hand. We didn't skip a beat, there was no downtime, every moment was used wisely and seamlessly as we scooted from one spot to another.

    Our entourage worked so well with Tom that it felt like they've been friends for years. Having been in makeup & hair since 3am for a 9am shoot, I was tired, but this photoshoot energized me and kept the excitement going for the rest of the day.

    I also had some bra issues and Tom gave me a single pro-tip that saved me from any wardrobe malfunctions. If only Janet Jackson had Tom on her team.

    We had a hater intrude at one point, she heckled us and told us about how her god prefers things one way or another, in stereotypical bigoted (lack of) fashion. Without hesitation, Tom stood up for us and called security promptly while he shielded us--"love is love," he said as he stepped in front of her. These security services weren't listed as part of the photo package, but I felt as safe as Taylor Swift in a sea of fans--because Tom went above-and-beyond.

    5/5 Compassionate, empathetic, professional, top notch...are words that I would use to describe him. Would love to work with Tom again. And you would too.

    Vogue, hunnnaaaayyyyyy!!!!!

    Tom did such an amazing job capturing our wedding!
    From the start, he showed up and went straight to work. He took pictures of the venue set-up before the celebration started. I love this. It brought to life the vision we had in planning our wedding.
    Next, he took photos of my husband and I getting ready. He even helped me fix my dress and vail. He's always got your best looks in mind :)
    Our ceremony pictures came out beautifully. He is very talented.
    Moving into our reception, he took such great pictures of our guests! We have timeless photos of the fun we had that night.
    Also, we loved that he was more than willing to snap pictures at our request. It was so nice to know he would help capture special memories.
    All of our guests could not stop complimenting Tom's work. Even the young kids wanted to get in front of Tom's camera for a pic! It was great!
    On top of it all, Tom is superrrr affordable. You cant beat his price for services. And for the pictures you get in return, it is totally worth it!!
    10000/10. Would recommend!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Best photographer

    Let me start by saying my wedding day was so perfect. The best part is having it all captured into beautiful pictures that I will always get to look at to remember my magical day. Tom Keene was so easy to work with. He made me feel so comfortable on what should be a stressful day. I never had to worry about anything and proof of that was when I saw all the amazing photos that were taken. My entire wedding also got to enjoy the pictures instantly on an app that Tom set up for everyone. I had all my pictures edited and sent to me within a week of my wedding. That is very unheard of, sometimes it takes months before you receive your final prints. I would highly recommend his photo service. So glad we found him.

    Fabulous Photographer!

    Tom is the the absolute best! I got married in the fall of 2023 and our families were so impressed with how professional he was- communicating well, sharing what we needed to do in pics, how to access our photos online, etc. Everything was easy to set up- I went to his website where packages are clearly presented and then communicated through there and got quick, clear and kind responses. Easiest part of the whole wedding was working with him… He was fantastic and the pictures all came out so amazing!!!

    Tom is amazing! We were so lucky to have him photograph our wedding. The shots are exactly what we wanted - some of them very unique. He is easy to work with and very accommodating. And our gallery of photos was on Facebook in a matter of days. I cant wait to see the rest!

    Totally Worth It!

    We saw LA Digital Photography at one of the vendor events at the La Canada Flintridge Country Club before the pandemic hit. We were so impressed with the portfolios of the photographers. When we got home, we looked into their website and saw how organized and professional it all looked. We originally had our wedding planned for October of 2020 but had to postpone our wedding due to the pandemic, and Tom was super accommodating in moving up the date. He was also very responsive with any questions we had. He set us up with Tiffany (who has worked with our day-of coordinator and our venue) for photography and Christian for videography. They both were wonderful and knew when and where to take the best shots. We absolutely love the photos and we can't wait to see the video of our wedding. Thank you Tom, Tiffany, and Christian for helping us capture the beautiful moments of our day!

    Tom did our engagement photos and they turned out AMAZING! He went above and beyond to make sure we were happy and got all the shots we wanted. Photo shoots can be a little awkward, posing and smiling the whole time, but Tom made us feel comfortable and at ease the whole time. He's friendly, accommodating, and super professional. Highly recommend him!

    Epic Talent!

    Tom captured our little wedding. He drove all the way out from LA to Palm Desert, no travel fees. He was so professional and easy going. Made us feel so comfortable and my husband hates getting his picture taken but Tom worked his magic and got him comfortable! The photos turned out absolutely amazing! There is a reason his company was voted best of the best. Epic talent! He will definitely be my 1st recommendation and #1 go to for any future photography needs. 100% recommend! Thank you thank you!

    Engagement pictures

    Tom & Cindy were the photographers for our engagement pictures. They were both great, very friendly, nice and professional. Tom made us feel very comfortable and took beyond awesome and magnificent pictures. We received the pictures within 24 hrs of the photo shot, most of the pictures were edited. My fiance and I were in love with Tom's & Cindy's talent.
    Thank you for being awesome photographers and being patient with us. We enjoyed our time and had a blast.

    Excellent all around

    Tom is fantastic! We found him through friends who were using him for their wedding as well. From the start, Tom was a pleasure to work with. He was flexible and his pricing was amazing. Much like everyone else these days, we had to postpone our wedding. During the last 6 months we had to change out date twice and location once, through it all Tom was happy to make changes as needed.

    We got our wedding pictures back within a week and they are perfect! He captured so many details and everyone loved him! The more I look through them the more gems I find. I can't recommend Tom and LAdigital enough and I can't wait to use him again for our next big life event.

    Amazing photographer

    Tom was amazing! He captured every moment so beautifully on camera. Not only did my husband and I enjoy working with him, but our guests could not stop raving about Tom! Tom was professional and has a calm sense to him and makes you genuinely laugh (perfect for the pictures). We absolutely loved being able to readily have all our photos right on the spot and share with our guests right away. We highly recommend Tom for all your photography needs!!

    Absolutely amazing!

    Tom was the photographer for my wedding, this guy was awesome! He’s funny, down to earth, and professional. When he did my engagement photos he actually drove my fiancé and I to the photo location. He was such a sport when the hotel where my fiancé and I had our first date would not allow us to take photos on their premises. He came up with a wonderful alternative that still captured what the venue meant to us, and the photos were absolutely beautiful. On our wedding day, he astutely figured out that we had a unique family dynamic and he managed the whole situation splendidly. Our wedding photos are so beautiful and Keith and I are so happy that we went with LA Digital Photo! Thank you so much Tom!!!!

    Sheridan and Keith,

    thank you for this. I'm glad I kept you laughing and smiling. Weddings can be a very stressful day and I'm glad to hear you remembered a lot of the day from laughing with me... or at me. I can't wait to be able to capture another life event with you and your friends and family.

    Tom did an awesome job doing our post- wedding shoot..It was sad to say that he did not able to do our wedding shoots due to unforseen natural calamities, from the start I went to look for a wedding photographer in wedding wire and thumbtack, he was the 1st one who said , yes...He is very professional, awesome personality that's why I choose him, he is one of the best in his craft...It was just sad that he was not our photographer that wedding day but, he did a great job in doing our post wedding shoots...and I loved all the pictures he'd taken..If I will get to have another marriage...lol 😂 I
    hope not...and given another 10 or 20 more years, and will have renewal of vows, I wouldn't think twice, I will still get him as our wedding photographer...than you Tom for a nice , well done pictures...
