    Very talented, highly recommend!

    I have nothing but amazing things to say about our photographer Megan Gingrich Abramczyk! Before booking I was able to meet Megan in person and that made my decision even easier. She has a great personality and I felt like I had known her for years. I felt super comfortable with her and decided to book right after that. I did not regret my decision. Any time I had a question for Megan she would get back to me right away and was always helpful. Our venue canceled one month before our wedding and she was very flexible, which made my life so much easier. That was one less thing I had to worry about. Luckily we found another venue for the same date. Our engagement photos turned out perfect I was so happy with them. We included our dogs and she got so many great shots. We just got our wedding photos back and I am obsessed. I couldn't be happier with how they turned out, I can't stop looking at them! We got married 9/18/20 and got the photos back by 10/6/20 way earlier than expected. I HIGHLY recommend!!

    Thank you!!

    My husband and I are pretty goofy and tend to be a little awkward, but Thomas was able to turn all of that into some amazing photos! He has a great personality and sense of humor so he fit right in with us and calmed all of our nerves. He shot our engagement session as well as our wedding day and I can't even begin to describe how impressed I am with all of our pictures. Even while planning during a pandemic, Thomas was always professional and laid back which was a great stress relief for me! All of our friends and family commented on personable he was during the wedding and they were equally as impressed with his photos! Thanks for everything Thomas/Mr. T/ Tommy Boy/ Sir Thomas Beaman!!!!

    AmazIng photos

    Thomas was so easy to work with. He did our engagement photos, Private wedding ceremony, and actual wedding day that we had to reschedule Because of covid. He does amazing work! Him and his photographer partner made the day fun and captured so many memories. Will definitely hire him for future events.

    Amazing photographer

    Thomas was everything and more that we would have asked out of our wedding photographer. We received all our photos back a month after the wedding!! Thomas even remembered that I have a hard time posing for photos naturally from our engagement shoot a year prior!!! If you are looking for a photographer, stop looking, you've found Thomas!!!!

    Super-Megan!

    I hired Thomas Beaman for my wedding and had the great privilege of working with Megan Gingrich Abramczyk as my lead photographer, with Thomas as my second shooter. Megan was truly a godsend. We had already worked together on my engagement photos, so by the time my wedding day came around, it felt like we were friends. The day of my wedding started off a little rocky. My sister’s maid-of-honor dress had been snatched at the Atlanta airport two nights before, my DJ canceled 48 hours earlier due to medical issues, and my brother woke up the morning of the wedding with an exploding appendix. No joke. Needless to say, it was a little stressful. My first moment of relief came when the doorbell rang, and I saw beautiful Megan standing on my porch, camera in hand.
    Megan is a dynamo photographer, but that’s not even the best thing about her. I felt relieved to see Megan because of the presence she has. Megan takes initiative. She knows what it takes to make an event run smoothly, and she’s not afraid to get her hands dirty, jump into the thick of things, and help in any way she can. She was more than a photographer. She was like an impromptu day-of coordinator. When everything else seemed to be falling apart, it made me feel safe to see Megan at my door. I thought, “It’s okay! Megan’s here! Everything is going to be okay!” And it was!
    After taking gorgeous photos of my pre-wedding prep, Megan went to my in-law’s home to take pictures of my husband and his groomsmen. She showed up there to find a group of guys (minus my brother who was in the hospital at this point), red-faced and frustrated, attempting to master their bow ties. They had all but given up when Megan came to their rescue. Without ever having done it before, Megan figured out how to make the ties work. An hour later, when they were trying to pin boutonnieres to leather suspenders, it was Megan who came through for the win once again!
    The rest of the wedding went off without a hitch. I was shocked by how quickly Megan developed a rapport with my entire bridal party and family. Despite the earlier stressors and the fact that my brother was in surgery around the time we sat down for dinner, Megan kept us laughing the entire day. I actually had guests coming up to me throughout the event to tell me how much they loved her. Megan and Thomas captured incredible moment after incredible moment and provided me with photos that I’ll cherish forever. They even went above and beyond in offering to photoshop my brother into a family portrait, and to do a complimentary family session with my brother the next time we were all in town. As if that weren’t enough, Megan asked if she could accompany us to the hospital after the reception to capture a moment with my brother, post-surgery. I was simply blown away.
    The very next morning, my husband and I left for our honeymoon in Mexico. It hadn’t even been 24 hours since our wedding ended when I received an email from Megan and Thomas with the first sneak-peak at our wedding album, which included several dozen, fully-edited photos. I don’t think either of them sleeps.
    To wrap-up this long-winded gush-sesh, I would recommend Megan and Thomas to anyone in need of a professional photographer. And by the way, after our DJ canceled, we ended up using Mixed-Up Productions, which happens to be the company for which Megan’s brother works as a DJ. Total coincidence. They too were just amazing!

    INCREDIBLE photographer with talent AND personality!!

    WOW. Honestly I do not even know where to start. Our venue (The Star Barn) recommended Thomas Beaman Photography and when we saw their work we were sold. We met with Megan and Thomas and they gave us an idea of what the day would look like if we booked them and did not pressure us to make a decision. They didn't need to...we booked that day. The positive and fun energy that these two gave off was exactly what we needed for our wedding day. Megan was our head photographer and I cannot say enough how amazing she was. We hit it off with her the first day we met her! Not only was she my photographer that day, but she treated me like a friend that I have known for years! She even helped some of my girls out with their makeup to make sure it looked perfect in photos! I had multiple family members/friends coming up to me telling me how incredible she was! She made sure that she captured every moment and busted her butt that day! Her passion for photography is so evident and it shines through the photos that she took. We were so incredibly happy with all of our photos! The only hard thing about this entire experience is going to be picking our photos for our album! I HIGHLY recommend Megan to anyone. She MADE our wedding day. She kept our crazy family together and made sure that we took pictures in all of the locations that we had spoken about prior to the wedding day. The day that you have been planning for years flies by in the blink of an eye, we are able to re-live that day through looking at our photos. If you want a photographer who has great energy and passion, who will make you laugh, who will rally your family together, work her butt off to make your day perfect and easier for YOU and most importantly take INCREDIBLE photos...do NOT look any further, Megan is your girl!

    Engagement Pictures

    I had my engagement pictures done by Megan and they are absolutely amazing! She made my fiancé and I feel so comfortable in front of the camera and our pictures really do show that! I can’t wait until November for our wedding photos!

    Easy going, flexible, incredibly talented photographer

    We had the most wonderful experience with Thomas through the planning process to the wedding day to receiving the incredible images and moments he captured! Thomas was so easy to work with and very professional. He is very responsive, offers useful advice on the timeline of the wedding day and is extremely talented in his work! We loved working with him and his co-photographer, Megan! They were so flexible, encouraging and made the day so easy and stress-free. They captured every amazing moment and their incredible eye for lighting and shadows is just breathtaking! We couldn’t be more amazed and more happy with our experience!! We highly recommend working with Thomas on your special day!

    Couldn't be any better!

    Having some experience with photography myself, I looked at a ton of photographers and kept going back to Thomas Beaman. To say I am glad I chose him is an understatement - his work is INCREDIBLE. Not only am I in love with all my photos, I've had endless comments from family and friends about how amazing they are. I truly believe finding a great photographer should be a priority for anyone planning a wedding as they are the best way to preserve your memories and you will not be disappointed hiring Thomas. Beyond his work, he was so nice and great to work with - as was his assistant/second photographer. I received my preview photos so quickly, and so many more of them than I ever expected! I would hire them again in a heartbeat and highly recommend Thomas Beaman Photography to anyone looking!

    Simply the greatest

    So I obsessively research, its who I am. I spent probably 20 hours researching every photographer in a 20 mile radius. Looking at their weddingwire, knot, Facebook and website. I've done the research for you- Thomas Beaman is the best. Meagan was an awesome surprise too! They complement each other well in this industry. I'm so grateful that he was available for my wedding day.

    Fantastic Experience!

    Thomas was the first vendor that I booked after picking my venue! I had ran into him at my venue the day I had my tour and they had 100% recommended that if I booked with them, I had to have him as my photographer. I grabbed his business card, and just hours after booking the Ranch, I had booked him to be my photographer. His work is FANTASTIC and I could tell that he had spent time at my venue finding the best shots. From day one. Thomas has proven that he is organized and prepared for everything on your wedding day. My wedding day was chaotic, and while we were behind several hours due to flooding and my guest not being able to attend, Thomas was flexible! NOT a SINGLE photo that I received from Thomas of that day looks like there is a flood in the area. They turned out beautiful and I will NEVER use another photographer!

    We were so happy with our decision to hire Thomas to photograph our wedding. He was quick to respond to all our questions and emails. On the day of our wedding, Megan and Thomas were so organized and made sure we got all the pictures we wanted. They seriously went above and beyond, at one point during our reception there was a lag in our timeline, Megan jumped in and requested moving up the Father/Daughter dance and I am so glad she did because that meant we had more time to dance with our family and friends. The photo booth that was included in our package was a hit with a guests and the props were so fun! We received our pictures back from him so quickly and seriously fell in love with every single one so we printed out all 1,300 photos because we could not narrow it down.

    Thomas and Megan were, and we cant say it enough, PHENOMENAL. They knew exactly where to grab the best shots and were very organized in doing so. They are extremely friendly, funny, & their personalities went very well with ours, all while remaining professional! Those aspects are important, of course, but what is MOST important is how they capture every single moment on film, so if and when the memories start to fade, you can look back at the pictures and it honestly plays the entire story of the day. Going through our pictures, we can't even recall how many times we said "when the heck did they get that photo.. and how?!?!?" They are all over the place getting the best pictures, yet you don't even see them! Magic!! haha Not to mention the QUALITY of the photos -- AMAZING. We loved how Thomas sends all the photos in color and in black & white! We have gotten countless compliments on our photos and you can tell just by looking at them that they deserve all the compliments in the world. Supposed to rain on your wedding day? No worries.. Thomas embraces mother nature, and one of our most beloved and favorite pictures of our night was after it started raining (thankfully right after the reception began!) and he took the most perfect picture of us in the rain. We really cannot say enough to praise them and their work. And we cannot thank them enough for their time, passion, professionalism, and just all over genuine desire to capture the best of the best of your wedding day, as if it were their own. You will NOT be disappointed! :) :) :)

    Thomas is absolutely incredible. His easygoing personality, friendliness and pure talent make him truly the best! When we toured our venue, they said we had to get Thomas for our photographer. They were right! Thomas took our engagement photos first and despite our fear of being uncomfortable taking the photos, we had an absolute blast and really enjoyed it! It felt so natural and easy, and Thomas captured incredible photos of us, which now hang all throughout our home. On our wedding day, Thomas and Megan (who was fantastic) perfectly captured every meaningful and special moment of the day from the first look with my husband to the first look with my dad to the walk down the aisle and so on. We truly have the best photos from our wedding day and we are so grateful we were able to work with Thomas and Megan to capture the greatest day of our lives!

    We cannot say enough great things about Thomas and Megan! After viewing some of the pictures both Thomas and Megan have captured, there was no question that we were going to use them for our special day! The questionnaire and timeline forms that Thomas sent a few weeks before the wedding helped out a ton, because we were able to go through who we wanted pictures with and the day of, everything went so smooth and fast! I had expressed to Megan that we wanted to be able to get our party started right away, and she and Thomas wasted no time taking the family pictures and letting us enjoy our cocktail hour! We were able to see a few pictures right after they were taken the night of our wedding and are SO excited to see the rest! Thomas and Megan were so professional, very quick to respond, and are so talented. We were so pleased! If you're looking for a photographer in the Harrisburg area to capture any special moment, Thomas Beaman Photography should be your first choice! Totally top notch!

    I cannot say enough good things about Thomas and Megan!!! This team is literally amazing. From day one, they were incredible to work with. They are so personable, hilarious, talented, and organized! Their eye for photography and direction made every shoot flawless and easy!! I wouldn't recommend any other photographers other than Thomas Beaman Photography!!!

    Thomas's photos speak for themselves. He does the most amazing work. He told me he used to be a landscape photographer so I think that is why I love his photos so much. He just picks the most beautiful settings. We chose the package which included an engagement session. Thomas suggested using our venue to do the engagement shoot because the property has so many picture-perfect settings, which I'm really glad he did because we got to give our friends and family a sneak-peek of the venue. He is so friendly and so easy to work with. He's very laid back and doesn't make you do any stiff, uncomfortable poses. My fiance and I felt very relaxed with him. On the day of the wedding he was super accommodating and, judging from our teasers, did a great job of capturing all the special moments of the day. I would highly recommend Thomas to any one.

    Thomas was our favorite vendor for our wedding. He and his assistant were unbelievable. He met with me at our venue before the big day, always responded to me in a timely manner, and was so down-to-earth to work with on the day of. He stayed an extra hour at no charge. Our photos were UNBELIEVABLE. And we got them back only a month after our wedding!!! He went out of his way to make my day great and made me happy that I didn't get a videographer. We didn't even need one and didn't regret not having one once we saw our photos. The shots he got were magazine-esque. Thank you, Thomas and Meagan!

    Thomas is a pleasure to work with, he is a talented photographer, and we highly recommend him. We worked with Thomas for our engagement photos as well as our wedding photos. We felt that this really helped establish a working relationship. This really was more for our comfort than his, as we learned from the engagement shoot what it was like to be in front of the camera. Thomas is professional. He is skilled, knowledgeable, organized, calm and collected, receptive, and willing to listen to desires and requests. On both occasions, he came prepared, got to work and knew just what to do. I should importantly note that on the big day, he arrived on time, followed our timeline with specifications to a tee (in the face of a demanding timeline), and accommodated all of our requests (within reason). Many guests from that day commented that he was everywhere, without being in the way, in addition to being very pleasant and kind. We even heard “If I was getting married I would hire him." We also really enjoyed working with his co-shooter on the day of the wedding, Megan. After the wedding, we had a few sneak peak photos within a few days and the final photos arrived within weeks in a digital version and on a flash drive. The photos are fantastic! Thomas literally fulfilled all of our requests from photos of the decorations and set-ups, to formal and bridal party shots, to photos of the guests at cocktail hour, dinner, and the party and even all of the candids! We couldn't have asked for more, honest. Thank you, Thomas!

    Thomas is one of the most down to earth and amazing photographers in the area. He took our engagement and wedding photos. He has such a gift. He captured so many great shots and knows how to use the light! He is prompt to respond to any questions and is very detailed. You won't be disappointed!!!

    Thomas Beaman is everything you could want in a photographer and more. The amount of compliments I receive on my wedding photos is still unreal to me. Thomas is efficient, kind, and pure talent. I had a large family and he made family pictures go by with ease. My family was astonished at how efficient and quick he was when taking photos. After receiving our photos my mother in law said "he could make dirt look like gold" and that is the truest statement. I had an end of April wedding, it poured that morning and was freezing cold. If you look at my wedding pictures you would never know. Thomas reassured me that day that I could still get my outdoor photos and that they would still look amazing and he couldn't have been more right. Lastly, Thomas had never been to our wedding venue therefore he came to view it one week prior (without my knowledge) to scope our perfect picture locations. I cannot say enough how important it was to me to book people who truly cared about me and my wedding not just about making money. Thomas is one of those people. I could write ten pages on how amazing he is but you need to find out for yourself, call him, book him!

    Thomas was great to work with from our first meeting with him at our engagement photoshoot in downtown Lancaster to our wedding day. He is also an all-around nice guy and helped put me and my husband at ease - neither of us are naturals in front of the camera! I honestly cannot stop looking at his blog post on our wedding (http://thomasbeaman.com/2015/09/wedding-at-the-farm-at-eagles-ridge-allison-and-alex/) - he captured the day so perfectly, from the little details and personal touches to the many fun candid moments during cocktail hour and on the dancefloor, and he even stuck around to the very end of our reception to capture our sparkler send-off. I cannot wait to see the full set of images once they are ready. I would describe Thomas and his assistant Megan as photography ninjas - we barely saw them during the reception yet they seem to have captured every moment we would have wanted - to me, that is the perfect style for a wedding photographer as there is nothing more awkward than someone in your face with a camera when you are trying to dance! I would 100% recommend Thomas Beaman Photography for your wedding photography! A+ vendor in my book.

    We quickly decided we NEEDED to have Thomas Beaman shoot our wedding after receiving numerous recommendations. After confirming these with online reviews, we were lucky enough to book Thomas for our date! For about a year, from booking until wedding day, Thomas quickly replied to any questions I (or my mother) had. He is as professional as they come and such a pleasure to work with. Even after the wedding, multiple party members commented on how great he was (or asked for his contact information). Thomas shot our engagement photos for us, and from that day forward we no longer worried about the wedding day because we knew we were in great hands. Our engagement photos turned out fantastic. Our wedding blog photos are breathtaking. Thomas is a photography angel… you don't even know he is around, but he captures everything! So many friends and family members have commented on our amazing photographer. I literally cannot say one bad or even mediocre thing about Thomas. One of my favorite things about hiring Thomas is that he is a one man show. He answers your questions, talks on the phone prior to, and actually takes the pictures himself! He won't send someone else in his place, but he may bring a second shooter to help out. He brought stephanie to ours, and she was very professional and helpful. Look no further than Thomas Beaman, you will not regret it! I can't imagine hiring another photographer for any even in the future!

    Thanks Thomas for making our wedding memories last a lifetime!!!! K&K
    Your a Rockstar!!!!

    Our experience with Thomas was so fantastic that it's hard to figure out exactly where to start singing his praises! From the very first time we got in touch with him via email, to our first phone conversation, and on through meeting with him in person and doing our engagement shots and wedding day photos, he put us completely at ease and gave us all the confidence in the world that our photos would be stunning (and they were!). Thomas is such a genuine, friendly, and kind person that you can't help but feel totally comfortable, and that shows in front of the camera. He and his assistant, Matt, were so accommodating to us, particularly since we live outside of the Pennsylvania area and were married in Princeton, New Jersey. They both drove hours to our home in NYC for our engagement shoot, and Thomas even met us in Princeton to show us samples of his albums live and tour the campus (where we got married) with us. On our wedding day, both Thomas and Matt were incredibly respectful of the Princeton Chapel and all of (very) strict requirements for photography inside, and our photos from both the chapel and our wedding at the Ashford Estate are truly remarkable. Everyone who sees them can't believe how beautiful they are, and it's not just one or two photos in the set that are outstanding -- it's hundreds. Thomas' understanding of light, landscape, composition, and angles, paired with his unique ability to capture just exactly the right, most genuine moments and facial expressions, make his product unparalleled and his photos absolutely timeless. If you're looking for the sort of photography that makes it into wedding magazines -- cinematic, beautiful, with perfect lighting, magical moments, and stunning composition -- look no further!

    AMAZING! I fell in love with Thomas's photography style over a year ago at a bridal show and knew that he would be the perfect photographer for our wedding. He was! He is a true professional, has a warm and friendly personality and was very responsive to our needs. On our wedding day, he captured the essence of our relationship and some beautiful shots of our wedding day, family and friends. If you want someone who can capture emotion and the uniqueness of the couple - he is it. He is also FAST and can get the shot very quickly. We would recommend him to anyone!

    I am so glad we booked Thomas so that we have beyond incredible photos of our SURPRISE wedding! Thomas captured the love, the sunset/sky, the celebration, and surprise in every photo. We also did another shoot with our families to get more photos in my dress, and my husband's suit - that extra day/shoot gave us memories to cherish forever! THANK YOU Thomas!

    WOW! We've loved Thomas since we met him many years ago and will continue to recommend and use him for years to come. His work speaks for itself and his professionalism, great personality, and talent are truly one-of-a-kind! He captured our love story at our SURPRISE wedding 10.3 and then for a photo session back in our dress/suit with our family 2 weeks later. This work is well above the rest and we are so pleased we chose him for our special day!

    I was in a wedding that Thomas was the photographer for. Having been in four weddings this summer alone, I have experienced the good, the bad and the ugly in this department. Thomas was amazing, you didn't even know he was there and he took some of the most beautiful photos I've seen. He was completely professional the entire time and truly captured the essence of the couple and the wedding. I would happily recommend him to others after being part of a wedding with him.

    Thank you Thomas for making our daughter's wedding so special. I appreciated your calming manner on wedding day as it helped to relax the mothers as well as the bridal party. Your pictures are our memories in the future and you bring the experience to find the wonderful backdrop -- the setting sun over the river!! Being a traditional family thank you for accommodating their request for not having a first look photo.

    Thomas was simply amazing! He was very professional and did such a great job capturing candid, yet beautiful moments from our big day on top of the shots that we wanted! He was great at remembering when to take us away for a few moments to get photos we wanted (that I would have forgot about) and was super quick so we were not away from our family and friends long. The images that he produced were stunning, and the wedding album that we received was breathtaking! We could not have asked for a better photographer! Altogether, I would definitely recommend Thomas for your big wedding day!

    The quality of Thomas' work is impeccable!! I could not ask for a better photographer!! I plan on using Thomas as my photographer for every event possible! The pictures he produces are stunning. Not to mention, when you're in the middle of your big day and are just trying to steal a second to eat, he remembers the shots you wanted to take but forgot. Simply amazing!

    Since before I was even engaged, I knew that I would use Thomas Beaman. I had been admiring his website blog for a very long time! Each one of his pictures tells a story and his talent blows me away. He is truly, hands down, the most talented photographer I have ever come across. He captures the amazing moments that you dont even know are happening! He is a great, fun, hilarous man who makes you feel comfortable INSTANTLY. The craziest part is that he gets all these fantastic pictures during the entire wedding and you NEVER EVEN SEE HIM! He is like Batman...he disappears in and out of the shadows to get you the pictures of your dreams. Amazing talent, amazing pictures, amazing personality....THOMAS BEAMAN IS THE MAN

    I won a free engagement session with Thomas at a bridal show. When my husband and I met him, we knew right away that we wanted him to be our wedding photographer. He was very personable and does beautiful work. He knew all the perfect spots for pictures at our venue. Our bridal party loved him and he complied with our every picture request. He really has fun and it is apparent that he loves his job. He was unobtrusive yet still got all the pictures we wanted. I can't stop looking at our pictures. His pictures tell a story and he captured every moment beautifully. He also put together a lovely slideshow (with music) of our wedding day for us that brought tears to my eyes. We have gotten so many compliments on our wedding pictures. I would definitely recommend Thomas Beaman if you are looking for a kick-ass wedding photographer. Great guy and very talented.

    My husband and I worked with Thomas for over a year before our wedding day and enjoyed working with him for both our engagement session and wedding day. Thomas is great to work with and his fun personality makes it easy to feel comfortable in front of the camera. Thomas was flexible and professional on all levels. He listened to what we wanted and made sure that the final product was better than what we expected. Thomas is great at what he does using natural lighting to bring out the beauty in any one. We felt that we could be completely ourselves and even a little silly in front of Thomas, which is a great achievement on his part for helping us to feel some comfortable. Thank you Thomas for being a major part of our special day!

    After spending countless hours on websites reviewing wedding photographers, I came across a particular site and thought to myself, "I need to be one of his brides. I need to be on this site." It was at that moment I knew Thomas was going to be our photographer. For Zach and I, the photographer was our most important vendor and Thomas did not disappoint. He was such a pleasure to work with. Thomas was easy going, fun, and attentive to every detail. Our engagement session was a blast and our images were flawless. And the images from the wedding. WOW. They were more beautiful than I had ever imagined. Zach and I described the images as "perfectly us." We looked at the pictures over and over again. All of our family and friends were so happy with the final product. Everyone kept saying, "How are you going to choose?" It's really hard to put into words how talented he is. His images are crazy beautiful...like freekin awesome. Another thing that makes him great...he's quick. He gets the shots and moves onto the next but we never felt rushed. That turned out to be invaluable. He kept us on time and still got all the images we wanted. Everyone in our wedding party loved him. In fact, my bridesmaid booked him for her wedding next year!! Knowing that we can look back on these images many years from now and remember every moment -- all the laughter, tears, joy and happiness of our day -- thanks to Thomas, well...what more could you ask for as a bride? Thank you, Thomas!!! Zach and I are forever grateful to you and so blessed to have been on the other side of your lens :)...

    Of all the vendors for our wedding, Thomas as our photographer was by far our best choice. We were most nervous about getting great photos that documented the day, as they are the thing that lasts (and we do not consider ourselves to be very photogenic). Thomas captured the day, the emotions, the scene, and more! We are extremely happy with the multiple DVDs of photos to choose from, and cannot pick just a few that are favorites! All of our friends and family continue to praise our amazing photos months after the wedding.

    Not only did the photos come out better than we could have imagined, but Thomas was like another cool, laid back guest at the wedding - he was never distracting, but blended right in. He's very soft-spoken and quick, and made everyone feel at ease. He also kept right on schedule with the day, and helped me, as the bride, stay calm as everything came together.

    He also took our engagement photos, which were fantastic. We did not have a videographer, but Thomas put together a slide show of about 100 edited photos that told the story of our day, and we are already looking forward to watching that on our anniversary instead of a multiple-hour video. You will be very lucky if you are able to book Thomas Beaman!

    We worked with Thomas for almost 2 years leading up to our wedding, we adored his kind and fun loving personality right away and could not wait to work with him. Our first personal experience with his pictures was after our Engagemet Photo session in which he captured our personalities and love for each other perfectly! His style is pleasing to all because not only does he get your standard posed shots but Thomas thrives in capturing the in-between moments as they happen and you end up with absolutely incredible pictures.

    The week before our wedding day we experienced every couples nightmare..my mom became critically ill and we needed to push the date back. We called the Sunday before and without hesitation Thomas told us just to let him know when we picked a new date and not to worry about anything else. We can't begin to express how truely bleesed and grateful we felt to have not only his understanding but support as well. Without a second thought he moved things around in his schedule to accomodate our new wedding date and a month later we were able to finally have our perfect day with the most incredibly talented photographer you will ever find!

    Thomas is amazing! I got to work with him first for my sisters wedding and then for our engagement photos and wedding. He is not in your face always asking to move that way and pose this way and still captures ALL the moments and make them look amazing! My husband always talks about what a cool guy he is and how easy he was to work with. We recommend him to friends all the time. Our photos are absolutely incredible! You will not be disappointed if Thomas is your wedding photographer!

    Thomas was a complete joy to work with! He warned me- he'll capture everything but we will feel like he isn't even there. Every time I turned around he was right in the shot and capturing everything. The sneak peak at a few of our photos were incredible. He is an absolutely gifted photographer. On our wedding day, i had second guessed my decision to go without a videographer but after seeing Thomas in action i knew we were well taken care of. I'd recommend him to anyone looking for someone who can truly capture the moment.

    Thomas was absolutely incredible to work with! We couldn't have asked for anything more from him as our photographer. Not only was he able to get the posed shots that we wanted quickly (and perfectly), but he was able to capture those unforgettable moments that lasted but a second. When we received the photographs that he took, I was shocked on just how telling the pictures were - his work captured the emotion, excitement, sheer joy and love that existed on our wedding day. By looking at the pictures, we are able to relive our wedding and for those that weren't there to celebrate with us, after looking at his photographs, they feel like they were there with us. I recommend Thomas with the highest regards.

He was so helpful throughout the entire planning process and was very organized leading up to our wedding day. He was so fun to work with on our wedding day and we are so pleased with our wedding photos. He managed to capture every detail and we would recommend him to anyone!

    Thomas is absolutely fabulous to work with and makes everyone at ease. He is fun, takes amazing photos, and is worth every penny. He also gets you your photos back so quickly! What bride doesn't want immediate satisfaction with photos in about 2 weeks! So happy that I chose him as my photographer. He did our engagement photos as well and they turned out wonderful! He was with us from 10 am while makeup and hair was being done and didn't leave the reception until 11 pm. It was a long day for him but he always made it look like fun to be there! TOP NOTCH - hurry up and hire him as he books quickly.

    Thomas was everything we could have asked for in a photographer and more that we didn't even know to look for. From our first meeting I knew that he was going to be amazing as I looked through his portfolio and saw the quality of his work. He was extremely flexible throughout the whole process from that first meeting to our engagement session and throughout the wedding day.

    Thomas is such a talented photographer as he captures the beauty of just about anything. His friendly personality made us both feel completely at ease even though both of us are usually very awkward with having our pictures taken! Thomas's ability to build a relationship with us allowed for our pictures to show our true personalities.

    We were working with a somewhat limited budget and never imagined that we would have such beautiful, high-quality pictures - but Thomas made that possible! We were so excited to get back from the Honeymoon to see our pictures because we knew how amazing they would be. Over a month later I am still hearing from everyone how much they love our pictures and how lucky we were to find Thomas. I would highly recommend Thomas to anyone and everyone I know!!

    All of my bridesmaids were thrilled with what a sweet guy Thomas is. He was very easy to work with and we had SO many photos choose from. I am a photographer myself, so picking someone to photograph my own wedding was high on my priority list. I got what I was looking for & highly reccommend him to anyone for their wedding day/engagement photos!

    Thomas Beaman provided our engagement photos as well as wedding photos. The engagement photos were wonderful! He traveled to our area free of cost and spent several hours walking around our favorite places taking photos. They came out absolutely perfect! We were able to use them for our invitations, announcements and to give to family.
    Thomas was always prompt in getting back to us about questions regarding the day of the wedding. He was very well prepared and knew every detail we wanted to capture. He even took a special trip to meet us at our venue before the wedding day for a walk through since he had never been there before.
    The day of the wedding, Thomas arrived early so he was able to get plenty of pictures of us getting ready before the wedding. He stayed the entire evening and did not miss a single thing! We also really liked how he was not intrusive in our day as some other photographers can be. He did not get in the way of anything and yet he captured it all.
    Thomas gave us a sneak peak of our wedding photos just a few days after the wedding so we were able to show all of our friends and family pictures that week! He had all of our pictures to us on a DVD less than 2 weeks after our wedding! Everyone was so impressed that we had our pictures already! The pictures are phenomenal! They are absolutely perfect! The colors look amazing and we really cannot even think of one detail that he missed! The quality is wonderful and we received a TON of pictures!
    We would recommend Thomas Beaman 100% to anyone!!

    Thomas did our wedding on April 16, 2010. Words cannot begin to describe our experience with Thomas. From beginning to end his mission was to capture who we are and how much we love each other. We were not really interested in the traditional posed pictures, but wanted more of the natural look during our wedding and reception. The Party Cam was a monstrous hit. Those are the kind of pictures we will treasure the most. Our friends and family having fun. There were many times during the wedding and reception that I didn't even know Thomas was taking pictures. His assistant was also helpful and professional. The pictures of the venue were also beautiful. Thanks again, Kathy & Harry Royer

    Thomas Beaman just did our wedding on October 3, 2009 and did an AMAZING JOB! He was so comfortable, friendly and easy going. Throughout the planning period of our wedding Thomas did an impecible job communicating and trying to get to know us. On the day of the wedding he was amazingly subtle in shooting his photographs. When we received the pictures, we were, to say the least, pleasantly surprised to see the shots he had as we didn't even notice him shooting around! Thomas exceeded our expectations and we would recommend his professionalism and expertise in a heartbeat!!!!!!!

    Thomas was recommended to us by a friend and I am so happy he was part of our wedding day. The album he put together for us was simply amazing. I recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer. Not only does he do great work but he really made us feel comfortable. My family loved him.

    I can't recommend Thomas Beaman Photography enough. As soon as I got engaged I knew I wanted to book him. His photos are gorgeous, natural looking and capture the joy, love and emotion of the Wedding Day. When I compared his prices to other photographers in the area, he came out with the most bang for our buck as well. My husband and I had engagement photos taken by him as well as all of our wedding photos. We loved them and get so many compliments off them. He did a great job capturing all the love and joy found in our wedding day. He was on time (early actually), organized, professional and incredibly easy to work with. I didn't even realize he was there all day but when I got my photos back he had everything I wanted captured and more. After seeing my photos, several friends of mine have booked him for their weddings and we are all so pleased. Book Thomas Beaman for your wedding, you won't regret it and will love your photos!!

    Thomas was amazing! He did both our engagement and wedding photos and they were unbelievable! I have gotten nothing but praise on how great our photos turned out! To make it even better is how easy he is to work with. He was fast and precise. I had a million picture ideas that I wanted to do and he did everything I wanted and more! The action shots from the reception are fantastic! I remember thinking at one particular moment "man I wish we had a picture of this" and after the proofs came back there were many pictures of it! He captured every moment for us and they are beautiful! I could not have been happier with all the pictures!!

    Thomas is so laidback! He and Megan were so easy to work with. They are a wonderful team and they truly capture amazing moments throughout the day. We were a bit stressed out the day because we were behind schedule due to some miscommunication with other vendors, but Thomas kept saying it was fine and went with our flow! And our pictures are STUNNING! Like, truthfully stunning. We are going to have to print just about every photo that they took. Some of our favorite pictures are the ones that were naturally happen that he just seemed to catch. His knowledge of lighting is super helpful with creating wonderful backdrops. We cannot say enough about our photos, and we got them only 5 weeks after our wedding!! We are so glad that we went with Thomas!! Thank you again Thomas & Megan!!

    My husband and I are extremely particular about what we were looking for in a photographer. We looked at several in the area and didn't find what we were looking for until we met Thomas. We met Thomas for the first time at Barnes and Noble, he was extremely laid back, easy to talk with, personable and friendly. Then he showed us his work and we were sold! He has an incredible eye for catching those special moments on your wedding day.

    We just recently received our photos and love them! The great thing is on your wedding day you never really know he is there snapping those moments (like a photo ninja), but when you see your photos, they are breathtaking.

    He is professional and we really enjoyed working with him. We definitely plan to utilize him in the future for other photo sessions and 110% would recommend him.

    After searching the internet for the best wedding photographer near my area, I found Thomas Beamon out of the Harrisburg area and knew that I wanted him for my wedding and engagement pictures. I can't believe how many compliments I've received on the pictures and how many people have told me that my pictures have blown others out of the water. He's so great at what he does and I was surprised to know that he's only been at wedding photography for a short time. He's clearly a natural. The photos are beautiful and could easily be featured in magazines (I think some are). He's also a very nice person to work with. I can't think of anyone else I'd like capturing our wedding! I wish I had more reason's to get photographed by him!

    Great experience, great photos

    Working with Thomas and his assistant was a joy. Thomas is so easygoing and accommodating, that both our engagement shoot and wedding photos were a breeze. He was intently clearly focused on two things: making us happy and doing the absolute best job possible. He even arrived at the venue an hour earlier than contracted because he wanted to get every shot he could of the bride getting ready. And the final product is outstanding! Just four days after our wedding, Thomas had already delivered a "sneak peek" of more than 120 edited images that were just incredible. We highly recommend him.

    Working with Thomas was absolutely amazing. He took away a lot of the stress that comes with a wedding day. He was so easy to work with; we all felt very at ease with him. As a result, he got some amazing photographs. He did a great job with our posed photographs as well as the candid. We would highly recommend him to anyone considering a wedding in Central PA.

    Positives: Thomas was friendly, easy to work with, and made me feel comfortable. He gave us a special great deal since ours was a smaller, non-traditional wedding. He got all of the shots we had specified were important to us which was great. He even stayed a bit overtime and he said not to worry about it. There were 3-4 really great shots that are well edited with great light balance and are sure to be blown up and framed at some point in our future.

    Negatives: I do have to mention that other than the 3-4 shots I mention above, a lot of the shots didn't seem to have any special positioning, editing, or artistic elements. We ended up with a lot of pictures where we were squinting in the sun, and a lot of pictures of us in the same exact positions with different backgrounds. The biggest bummer though was that we were told some teasers would be posted on his website within a short amount of time, and nothing ever was. It didn't really bother us from the perspective of having to wait longer for pics, but rather I still can't help shaking the feeling this was because he felt none of them came out well enough to post...or that we didn't look good enough to represent his work or something. It just ended up taking a toll on my self confidence and how I looked at the pics.

    Overall: I really have no right to complain about anything. He blended in so naturally and comfortably and gave us a great package price. And really in the end it's just those few great shots that you'll end up looking at over and over again anyway that matter. And who knows maybe it was just us not looking as great as I'd hoped we would that day and that's more my hair and makeup artist's problem and not something photo editing could have necessarily helped. Thomas, just realize posting some kind adjectives with few of the pics on your site (whether exactly true or not) probably means a lot more to the couple than you'd think.

    We used Thomas Beaman for our engagement and wedding pictures. Our engagement pictures were fabulous and we received them in a timely manner. Our wedding pictures turned out ok. Unfortunately, near the time of our wedding Thomas was dealing with a family illness and it affected his business.

    There were several photographs I requested having taken during our wedding including guests at the cocktail hour/dinner, guests signing our guest book, and details at the ceremony and they were not taken. On our wedding day he didn't advise us where to stand and what direction (as he had done with our engagement pictures), so several pictures my hair and dress were messed up in the wind or we were squinting in the sun.

    We received our wedding pictures 7 weeks after the event, which we understood due to his family emergency would be longer than what we had agreed in the contract, but the frustrating part was that he was very unresponsiveness in returning our emails, didn't follow through with 3 deadlines he promised, and we were unable to leave messages on his phone. It caused us to worry that after all the money we spent, we weren't going to get pictures at all! The wedding pictures were also not edited to the extent and expertise our engagement pictures were (including capturing the videographer's equipment, several pictures of my husband were washed out, and he captured a pile of Christmas decorations on the floor near us). Luckily we were able to edit them on our own.

    Overall, Thomas is an amazing photographer and we got several great pictures of our wedding day. We hope his circumstance improves and does not continue to affect other weddings as it did ours.

    I hired Thomas after doing extensive research online. He has amazing reviews on this site and his photos of weddings he's previously done blew me away. From the beginning he was easy to work with. Whenever he was out of town, I would get an away message that would let me know how long he would be gone for and he always promptly replied once he was back from an out of town shoot. So you can imagine my surprise and disappointment when that all changed the week before my wedding. He cancelled our in person meeting with an email on the day, and then dropped off the face of the earth after that with no reply to any form of communication from me. He had me in such a panic before the big day that I was desperately trying to find a replacement since I didn't feel confident he would show up. He finally got in touch the day before our rehearsal and did show up at the wedding. He was unobtrusive which was great but he didn't get all the photos I had hoped and our big family photos have a bunch of chairs in front of us that weren't moved out of the way which mar the picture. That's not to say he didn't get some wonderful amazing shots like of my father walking me down the aisle and when my husband first saw me as a bride and my husband with his grandmother among many others. He told us we'd have the photos within a week of the wedding - that never happened and after the wedding I didn't hear from him again until a month and a half later. He didn't respond to any of my calls or emails. Our contract stated I'd get everything within three weeks but in reality I didn't get the photos until over two full months later. I understand he is going through a difficult time but in the future he needs to either find a replacement or at least have better communication. Hopefully what I experienced no other bride has to go through.

    **Update: I would like to apologize for my earlier post, which was much more negative than I intended due to Wedding Wire’s word limit, which cut me off before I got a chance to say that I did receive beautiful pictures from Thomas, and am very happy with the wedding pictures I have. I did not mean to say that Thomas was not a great photographer, as he clearly is. I was, however, disappointed by some aspects of the service.

    I felt that Thomas didn’t give us enough instructions in setting up the posed pictures. Additionally, we had told Thomas before the wedding that we wanted a picture of each table with us in it. We took two of these pictures at the beginning of the reception, and then were called away for something else. By the end of the night, only those two tables had had their picture taken. I don't completely blame Thomas for this, because I'm sure he didn't want to interrupt us during our wedding, but I would have expected him to either ask or at the very least take the table pictures without us. We also remembered later in the night and looked for Thomas and could not find him. We think left our wedding well before it was over. I understand that the wedding went later than expected but I would have expected him to at least ask a parent or our wedding planner if we wanted to extend our time rather than just leaving our wedding well before it was over without saying anything. Lastly, we are disappointed with the photobook that was part of our package. I picked out the 40 pictures, and 6 months later (after I contacted him several times and he did not respond), we received a tiny photobook with no picture on the front or back covers and 1 picture per page.
