Amazing photographer and person!

We can’t say enough wonderful things about Tom. From our first meeting over Zoom, we knew we’d found someone we’d love to work with on our wedding day. Throughout the planning process, he was communicative and helpful. He put us at ease during our engagement shoot, and we loved those photos. We knew we’d love our wedding photos, too, but Tom exceeded our already very high expectations! He takes amazing film and digital photos, and the disposable cameras were an especially fun touch.

Tom and the second photographer, Julie, were both so calm and encouraging and kind on our wedding day. They made my husband and me – and all of our family and friends – feel comfortable all day. Months later, my friends still talk about how much they loved Tom. He remembered all 10 of my bridesmaids’ names. He succeeded at getting our less-than-enthusiastic nephews to smile. He navigated the crowd on the dance floor to take some of the most fun images I’ve ever seen in a wedding album. He captured all the little details that my husband and I spent so much time planning. We wanted photos that took us back to the entire wedding day, and we wanted lots of photos of our loved ones having fun. Tom delivered, and his photos bring us right back to so many special moments we’ll remember happily for the rest of our lives.

We look at the photos, and we feel all the joy we shared with our family and friends, the warm October light on our faces, and the love and elation my husband and I shared that day. We’ll treasure these photos forever.

HIGHLY recommend!!!

It was a pleasure getting to work with Tom and getting to know him as a person. Tom captured such raw emotions and so many beautiful moments making it easy to relive one of the best and most important nights of our lives through his photos. He also seamlessly integrated with our family and friends from the US, the Netherlands, the UK, and Zimbabwe, making everyone feel more comfortable and relaxed. We will never forget his leaps and spins on the dance floor as he snapped pictures while dancing! We can't recommend Tom highly enough!!!

Incredible

Tom is an absolute delight!!!! Tom worked with us for our engagement photos, and also wedding day photography and videography. We knew after looking through Tom’s portfolio that he was clearly very gifted at photography; but we really knew he would be a great fit after reviewing his website and learning about how inclusive and kind he is. Lots of vendors put the emphasis on “the bride;” but my partner is as equally involved in the planning process as I am- we noticed right away that Tom made it a point to address both of us, and include both of us on all communications and decisions. This seems like a small thing but it felt huge to us.
He has such an easygoing and down to earth energy that removed any extra stress from our wedding day.
We found him to be very organized and an excellent communicator.
My dad was very impressed that Tom brought several back up cameras on our wedding day- he is prepared for everything!
We already have ordered several of Tom’s photos for our house and I know that we will want to continue to work with Tom for all of life’s future milestones :)
Thanks again, Tom!

Fantastic wedding and family photographer

Tom did a fantastic job memorializing our intimate outdoor wedding Bill and I reconnected after 42 years apart and were married this fall Tom did a great job communicating before, during, and after the event. He was well organized and blended into the ceremony. He worked magic with our young grandkids. His photos captured the joy, happiness and warmth of the occasion. I highly recommend him without reservation. Thanks Tom for making our big day so special! Diane and Bill

We are so thankful for Tom!

We had an amazing experience with Tom as our wedding photographer! Before the wedding, he was quick to respond to any communication and very intent on making sure he knew what we wanted. At the wedding, he was very professional and went above and beyond every step of the way. He was attentive and captured every special moment. The photos are really amazing and he did an excellent job directing us and our families during the posed photos and capturing candid moments without intruding. He got our gallery to us quickly and the photos were beautifully compiled. We cannot recommend Tom enough!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
