T5 Photography

I cannot speak highly enough of Tommy and his team. They did the photography for my daughter and son in laws wedding in Boulder on 9/5/21. While we have not seen all the photos yet we know what to expect after the gorgeous engagement pictures Tommy took in Rocky Mountain National Park. On the day of, Tommy and his assistant followed our schedule as we had asked and they were professional at every turn. Tommy's calm amidst the last minute details was reassuring to us as well. My daughter and son in law loved that he was "chill" and saw their wedding vision clearly. If you want a photographer who clearly enjoys his work and wants to make the bridal couple happy with photos for a lifetime, use T5 Photography. You will not be disappointed.

Tommy was absolutely incredible to work with! My husband and I HIGHLY recommend. He really takes the time to know couples before the big day and it shows. I'm super camera shy and Tommy made it easy and comfortable. All of our guests continue to rave about how awesome our photographer was. Plus, his photos speak for themselves.

We were so happy to have found Tommy for our engagement pictures and even happier when it worked out that he could also photograph our wedding. Tommy was so easy to get along with from the first day we met and his attention to detail really shows in the pictures. Not only is Tommy a talented photographer, he's just a good person and fun to be around! We loved the photos and we were grateful for the opportunity to have made a new friend in the process.

We are so happy we chose T5 as our wedding photographer. I can't recommend Tommy enough, we are so happy with how our photos turned out!

We chose a venue with a spectacular view, so we knew we wanted to get a really good photographer to capture it. Our venue gave us a list of photographers they recommended and we had it narrowed down to two, based on looking at their portfolios. We decided on Tommy after meeting with him in person - he was just fun to be around and the way he spoke about his job made it sound like he was not only very good at it, but really enjoyed it too.

Tommy did our engagement photos last October 2018 and made it so easy for us to look good on camera! My now-husband isn't good at smiling for posed photos, but Tommy gave us natural-feeling poses and made us laugh with each other, which made for great photos that didn't feel posed.

Our wedding was exactly the same when it came to our couple photos and our bridal party photos. You can just feel by looking at them how much fun we were having! During our ceremony I didn't even notice he was there, but he got some really great shots. It was cold and windy outside and he got us through our family photos really efficiently. All of our guests loved working with him during the cocktail hour and reception as well.

Simply put, Book Tommy as your engagement and wedding photographer. I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Tommy. It all started in 2018 when I got engaged. My husband and I had planned a trip to Colorado (we are from NY) prior to getting engaged and decided it would be a great place to have our engagement session done. After looking at several photographers in Colorado I was looking at Tommy's website and as I clicked through the various blog posts of different couples and tears came to my eyes. Tommy's photos are simply beautiful. You can see the love in his photos and its overwhelming to see. The story that his pictures told moved me in such a way I knew that he was our guy. In June of 2018 Tommy picked us up at our hotel and drove us to the Great Sand Dunes at 4am to get the best engagement photos. He spent hours upon hours with us that day. We were over the moon about our photos. Fast forward to April 16th, 2019 we were happy to be getting married at Horseshoe Bend in Page, AZ. Tommy was stoked to be joining us. Tommy became such a part of our lives over a year that he even stayed with us the night before our wedding. He's seriously such a cool guy! It's hard to sum up our wedding day because the photos and work that Tommy put into that day for us was so expansive words don't do it justice. I will say that Tommy was by far the number one best decision I made for my wedding (other than my groom of course). Your wedding day goes so fast! When I recieved my wedding photos there were moments that were captured that I didn't even remember. It's amazing to relive that day every time I look at them. All those feelings that I felt about Tommy's photography when I came across him online were all the feels I got from my own photos. Tommy is hands down the right way to go. We are so happy to consider him one of our friends! Also, I can't tell you how many people have stopped me and told me that my wedding photos are THE MOST beautiful wedding photos they have ever seen. Some people have even told me that they can't get married now because they will never be able to have as amazing pictures as we did. To that I simply say, just book Tommy.

Tommy was our first and easiest hire for our wedding. The whole process of selecting a photographer was a little intimidating at first because we didn't know exactly what we were looking for or how to even describe it. T5 was on a preferred vendor list at our venue, which is where I started our initial search. Right off the bat, we felt super comfortable with Tommy, regardless of the fact that we technically met through FacetTime because we were planning a destination wedding. Tommy new the questions to ask that helped him understand what we were looking for AND had a killer portfolio. A lot of photographers have a distinct "look" in their portfolio (high saturation, black/white, what I call the "rustic glow" etc.) What we loved about Tommy was that his portfolio shows he has a lot of range and will use whatever is best for the individual photo-- we instantly trusted his taste and you can tell he has fun with his work. Throughout the planning process he was super easy going and had great suggestions along the way we hadn't really even thought of.

However, the day-of is where Tommy really shines. We also hired a second shooter and were lucky enough to be paired with Jo. Tommy had the vision and Jo worked her butt off to help complete it. I also appreciated Tommy's communication style-- I am not the type who enjoys pictures being taken and felt pretty awkward most of the time. Tommy was able to communicate what he was going for and made me feel more at-ease. Most importantly, he made sure everyone was having an awesome time while he was around. I got SO many compliments on Tommy and Jo throughout the day. My husband and I were able to sneak away for some sunset photos, which I'm SO glad we did because it gave us some extra time together to enjoy each other and have a bit of fun up on the pass.

If you are looking forward for someone professional, fun, and willing to do whatever it takes to get the shot, then Tommy is your guy.

The best analogy I can use when describing Tommy is that he literally hit one out of the ballpark. We chose Tommy to do our engagement photography and he did not disappoint one bit. Tommy provided excellent feedback on where my fiance and I should take engagement photos and was flexible in getting us scheduled and where we wanted to meet to take pictures. On the actual day of shooting, Tommy was incredibly pleasant to be around, knowing how to engage us every step of the way. Shooting pictures is a stressful ordeal, but Tommy made it a fun experience. He was also an expert in setting us up for the best shots in the best locations. When we got the pictures, we were floored with the quality of the pictures as they all turned out really well. Overall, we couldn't have picked a better engagement photographer. On top of all this, he offers excellent value. One would be hard pressed to find a better photographer than Tommy Cowan.

Tommy did our wedding and engagement session and killed it!! My husband loved him and was comfortable around him, so that was a big deal! He made it fun and even rapped Notorious B.I.G. for the me and friends on my wedding day! I would highly recommend him for any photography session!!

I have never met a more professional genuinely a good person not only are the pictures amazing but tommy will be a friend forever. Couldn't have been a better experience

Tommy was super personable and helpful during our whole wedding planning experience. From the start, he took the time to meet with us in person and create a personalized plan for what we wanted for our wedding. Besides giving us great advice on photography, he also has a lot of insight on weddings in general and is always willing to answer questions. His photos are amazing and something we will treasure for the rest of our lives. Definitely someone we'd recommend!!

Tommy has been fantastic to work with. He understood what we were looking for in our pictures and captured that beautifully. He was able to ascertain quickly what we didn't want, and made sure to avoid those shots. He was a pleasure to work with and I can't wait to work with him more

T5 and Tommy are the only way to go for any occasion. He shot our wedding and engagement and we couldn't have dreamt of what that entailed! Recommend 100%

When we started planning our wedding we knew that a good photographer was one of the most important pieces along with good food & drink, and a good DJ. We wanted memories that we could look back on for a lifetime. Our goal was to get unique pictures we could use to decorate our home and give as gifts to our family. Tommy knocked it out of the park. His entire process made us feel confident we made the right choice from day one. He worked with us to understand our unique needs, and he was a pleasure to work with throughout the process. His ability to organize and work the crowd made us feel like he was the coordinator for anything photo related on the big day. We were nervous, but he made the whole process fun and got the best out of us. But ultimately it was his creative eye and skill that gave us the best wedding photos we have ever seen. Our pictures are unique and gorgeous! We could not be happier with the final product. If you are debating who to hire as your wedding photographer, our advice would be stop debating, and go with Tommy! You will be happy you did!

I used Tommy and T5 Photography for my wedding in September 2015 and he was fantastic! He has an eye for getting just the right shots - the photos came out great! Tommy was professional, but still laid back and fun to have at the wedding. He worked really well with my photo-phobic friends and husband. We have received so many compliments! I highly recommend T5 Photography!

Tommy did an incredible job! He made us feel so comfortable and relaxed. I had no worries about him, I knew he was going to do a great job. He was very professional and timely. All of the guests loved him as well. The photos turned out incredible, I was so pleased with them. I would highly recommend Tommy!
