About

We are Tom and Jennifer, a passionate husband and wife wedding photography & cinematography team. Our approach to filming and photographing is unique as it is influenced by our background in film, photography, design and fine art. We tell your story and capture the true emotions and energy of your wedding day all while being as unobtrusive as possible.

We love Love and we’re hopeless romantics (yes, sometimes we shed a tear while filming and photographing your day). It’s very important for us to get to know our couples. We’ll hang out as much as you want :) Very often, our couples become our friends and we love that. We can’t wait to meet you!

P.S. We love to travel so we’re available worldwide!

Photos for a lifetime

Tree of Life lead photographer Jennifer made my special day the BEST day of my life. Her portfolio is incredible, and I was so excited to have booked her, but this excitement was incomparable to the feeling of looking at our photos. I am elated. She has raw talent, her work is artistry, and she is professional and communicative. Looking forward to hiring her and her husband for all future photo/video needs/events. Thank you Tree of Life!!

Tree of Life Films and Photography Deserves ALL the Stars in the Universe

I am not one to write reviews, but this one is a BIG MUST DO! There are not enough stars in the universe that I could give Jennifer and Tom (Tree of Life Films and Photography)! From the moment we enquired about their services, to when we received our footage, Jennifer and Tom were absolutely fantastic. They were professional, friendly, and detailed. They spent time researching our personalities and provided guidance on what would make our video look 'cool'. They did not compromise on the 'storytelling' of the video, so much so that they added another 30 seconds more to our original video to capture the 'story'. We played this elopement video at our actual wedding and EVERYONE couldn't stop raving about the video (for days on end). So much so that our wedding videographer and photographer are calling Jennifer and Tom to connect on the amazing work. We absolutely loved filming with Jennifer and Tom and we will be back with them for more shoots in and around Vegas - they have us addicted. They are THE BEST in the business! Trust me, you will not be disappointed!

Perfection

Just the absolute best of the best. Tom & Jenn truly made our day magical and captured the most beautiful moments. They were such a joy to work with throughout or wedding day - just so thoughtful, supportive, fun, and professional. They helped schedule the whole day so that nothing felt rushed; it's a huge thanks to them that we had such a successful today. We just got our photo gallery back and we are blown away by how beautiful their work is. My husband and I HIGHLY recommend them to anyone for photo and video services!!

Best Photographer&Videographer Duo!

Jenn and Tom captured so much emotion and genuine happiness on our wedding day! We can’t thank them enough for our amazing photos and being the incredible people that they are! My husband isn’t a big picture taker and he said that he did not once feel overwhelmed by taking pictures like he has when he was in other weddings. We were able to really enjoy ourselves and truly have the best day ever!

Jennifer and Tom are amazing

We booked Tree of Life Photography for our spring wedding! We could not have picked a better photographer team than Jennifer and Tom. They are amazing at what they do and really care about each photo they take! We absolutely LOVED all the photos taken and editing style on them. When looking back there were SO many photos that we didn’t even realize were being taken (during dancing, cocktail hour, and dinner)! It was so fun looking back and seeing all these awesome photos! It really strengthened our fun memories! Thank you to Tree of Life for giving us everything and more in our photos!! We could not have been happier!

Beautiful aesthetic, zen experience

My husband and I used Jennifer and Tom as our wedding photographers and videographers in October 2021. We had interviewed a few other photographers, but really loved their approach, general aesthetic, and the fact that they could do both video and photography. Unrelated to ToL, the morning of our wedding was a little chaotic and just wasn't the vibe we were hoping for. However, Jennifer and Tom seemed to bring this zen peace with them, which made our getting ready and first look so relaxing and rejuvenating. I had recently been in another wedding, and I knew this "vibe" was not the standard - especially in a post-COVID wedding season. I cannot say enough good things about how their demeanors positively impacted not only our wedding day, but the photo themselves. Our photos are so ethereal and natural. We look so happy and comfortable because that's how it felt working with Jennifer and Tom. They really captured our love and the spirit of our relationship. Cannot wait to see the video - I have no doubts it is amazing. As an aside, I will also say Jennifer took such amazing shots of our wedding details and tablescapes. This wasn't something I thought all that much about, but now I am so grateful for these gorgeous images that capture the mood and look of our wedding day. I seriously want to frame all those images!

Tree of Life made our wedding

Jen and Tom from Tree of Life are incredible. Working with them was amazing right from the first phone call. It started off with just a chat on the phone to get to know each other. It was great to already feel a personal connection right from the start. During our first shoot, they made us feel so incredibly comfortable and open. We felt so at ease the whole time, and this was our first professional shoot! This was so essential in capturing candid and natural shots.

They are both incredibly intuitive and creative as well. During our engagement shoot, they found the coolest spots to get gorgeous shots. Places we would never think to go to. They just have awesome sense of what looks good.

Jen and Tom took into account our vibe and aesthetic with the photos/video they created. It just felt so us.

My husband and I, all our friends and family can not stop looking over the gorgeous photos and cinematic video. So happy that our special day was captured in the most authentic and gorgeous way. Do not think twice, work with Jen and Tom!!

Incredibly speechless!

Jennifer & Tom are epically talented. I've never seen lighting used so fantastically well! When we got our pictures back, we were speechless and floored! Our families cried because these two captured our wedding moments in the most beautiful way. They also do their absolute best to give you a preview soon after your wedding to share with others. During covid, Jennifer & Tom were flexible and very kind and always responded when we changed something or had any questions. We definitely, highly recommend these two; they take your memories to the best level and beyond.

Incredible!

They did an amazing job with the photography and video. Because of them we can revisit our amazing day whenever we want! They were even able to make us a physical wedding album that we couldn’t be happier with.
